John Waite

John Waite at Star Pavilion at Ameristar Casino and Hotel - Kansas City

One voice can bring a favorite record rushing back. John Waite’s connects “Missing You,” The Babys’ “Isn’t It Time,” and Bad English’s “When I See You Smile.” If that voice still stops you in the middle of whatever you are doing, his Star Pavilion performance gives you a reason to make a night of it in Kansas City.

The attraction is personal before it is historical. Maybe the solo work is your favorite. Maybe you return to The Babys, with “Every Time I Think of You” among the songs that keep the connection alive. Each route leads to a singer whose passionate delivery is a large part of the records’ appeal.

Waite’s music makes room for romantic longing, vulnerability, and the pleasure of a strong rock melody. That is a satisfying combination for an evening out: music you can enjoy for its sound and care about for what it means to you. Seeing the vocalist behind those recordings gives that attachment a face and a place.

You do not need an encyclopedic knowledge of the catalog to want to go. A voice you love and the prospect of an enjoyable concert are plenty. Explore John Waite tickets at Star Pavilion at Ameristar Casino and Hotel, and make a plan around the music you still have feelings for.
