Olathe, Kansas
Olathe ( ) is the county seat of Johnson County, Kansas, United States. It is the fourth-most populous city in both the Kansas City metropolitan area and the state of Kansas, with a 2020 population of 141,290. History 19th century Olathe was founded by John T. Barton in the spring of 1857. He rode to the center of Johnson County, and staked two quarter sections of land as the town site. He later described his ride to friends: "...the prairie was covered with verbena and other wild flowers. I kept thinking the land was beautiful and that I should name the town Beautiful." Purportedly, Barton asked a Shawnee interpreter how to say "Beautiful" in his native language. The interpreter responded, "Olathe." Olathe was incorporated in 1857, and while not the first city in Johnson County, its rapid growth led to it being named the county seat in October 1859. Rising tensions across the nation over the issue of slavery led to numerous clashes between abolitionist settlers and neighbori ...

Hard Times Are In Fashion
''Hard Times are in Fashion'' is the third studio album by the American indie rock band Koufax. Background When Koufax began recording their third album, this happened without a valid record deal. As a result, the band had to pre-finance the recording costs from their own pockets. They worked in six different studios. The band was also currently undergoing a line-up change. From the now disbanding but friendly band The Get Up Kids, the brothers Rob and Ryan Pope joined the band for the drums and bass section. No Koufax album features as many guest musicians as this one. For example, the album was recorded with three different drummers. Guitar and piano work was also added from outside. For the first time on a Koufax album a pedal steel guitar can be heard. Finally, the finished album was handed over to Doghouse (distribution in the USA) and to Motormusic (distribution in Europe). Track listing Reception The album received mainly positive reviews: "''Hard Times are in Fashio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Problems (album)
''Problems'' is the sixth studio album by American rock band the Get Up Kids, their first full-length with Polyvinyl Records. It is their final release to feature keyboardist James Dewees before his departure in 2019. Writing & Production After the band's self-released reunion album ''There Are Rules'' largely failed to find an audience, the members of the Get Up Kids took another short hiatus working non-music industry jobs, interrupted only by brief weekend tours and one-off shows. While drinking at a bar before their performance at the 2017 When We Were Young festival, the band began to talk about recommitting to the Get Up Kids as a full-time pursuit. ''Problems'' was recorded at Tarquin Studios in Bridgeport, Connecticut over 19 days in September 2018, reuniting with Peter Katis -- who mixed the band's divisive 2002 album ''On a Wire'' -- who produced alongside the band. It marked the first time the band had worked with Katis since he found mainstream success producing bands ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
There Are Rules
''There Are Rules'' is the fifth studio album by American rock band The Get Up Kids, the band's first studio album release since 2004's ''Guilt Show''. After their initial reunion, the band decided to challenge themselves to write and record an album in only two weeks without using any digital technology. Ultimately, due to conflicting schedules, they dropped the two-week deadline and recorded over several months in 2009 and 2010. Much of the album was recorded in the same sessions as their first post-reunion release, ''Simple Science,'' the song "Keith Case" being featured on both. Background and production The Get Up Kids released their fourth album ''Guilt Show'' in March 2004. They tried to promote it as much as they could prior to August, by which point vocalist/guitarist Matt Pryor had his second child, before going a break to focus on other projects. They returned briefly for a farewell tour in 2005, before breaking up, and eventually reuniting for shows in 2008 and 2009. I ...

Guilt Show
''Guilt Show'' is the fourth studio album by American rock band The Get Up Kids. It was released on Vagrant Records on March 2, 2004. Background The Get Up Kids released their third album ''On a Wire'' in May 2002 through independent label Vagrant Records. The album marked a musical shift away from their earlier work; despite being critically lauded, fan reaction to it was highly negative. While touring the album, the material came across as too mellow and quiet, which made for lackluster live performances, according to vocalist/guitarist Matt Pryor. In August, the group went on a European tour, playing shows in Germany, Belgium and the UK. The tour was to include additional shows in Italy, Switzerland and Amsterdam, but were left out due to time constraints. They were also due to perform shows as part of a Vagrant Records tour in the US, as well as further European shows, but were abandoned due to scheduling conflicts, resulting in the band staying at home. They began writing mate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
