Kansas returned to the stage this past weekend, playing their first concert in 14 months after the pandemic shutdown forced the live-music industry to put things on pause.
“It was a great feeling - kind of surreal in a way,” drummer and founding member Phil Ehart tells UCR. “It was kind of like, ‘Wow, for a while, I thought we’d never get a chance to do this again!’ I came to find out a lot of my peers felt the same way. Everybody’s glad to be getting back out, and the crowd looks really happy, so that’s good.”

TAMPA â Comedian Ester Steinberg has been feuding with Wikipedia since high school.
âI am obsessed with my high school Wikipedia pageâs notable alumni section,â the 2008 Plant High School graduate said with a laugh. âIt has Wade Boggs. It has Gallagher. I want to be on it.â
Time and again, Steinberg said, she has added her name to the list and, time and again, it has been deleted by administrators.
