3 years ago we invited this guy to the bar. He always seemed to be positive and supporting all things local. We declared it
@Joel311Bandit
Day at the bar. Tonight he was named the co-host of
@homegrownbuzz
and we couldn’t be more proud of him. Thank you Joel for making KC great.

At Up-Down, the safety of our guests is always our first priority and for this reason we are choosing not to reopen at this time. We will continue to work on best practices and procedures to ensure the safety of our guests and staff when we return.

Someone once told me they didn’t feel “cool enough” to come to Up-Down. I never felt worse about my job. At it’s core that is exactly the type of person Up-Down was created for.

One year ago 14 bands came out for our Coins for a Cause event to raise money to help start the middle band program at Scuola Vita Nuova Charter School. Tonight we are attending their first band concert. KC Bands and their fans helped do this.
