The other night I was listening to the radio and heard that one of my favorite people in the whole world, Suzi McDumbitch of 96.5 the buzz, was going to be doing a remote from Downtown Overland Park’s newest bar, Revolver, and I figured I’d stop by during the remote to hang out for a while… This was one of the worst mistakes I’ve made in my bar-hopping life.
Some of the many reasons this place sucks donkey balls are the following:
They lock the front door of this bar at 9:00pm, and make everyone walk around to the rear of the bar to enter.
There is a $2 cover.
A single captain and coke was $6.50.
The wait-staff was slow, It took 14 minutes from the time I ordered my drink for my drink to arrive.
The music was ridiculously loud… and worse, it was all shitty old rock that shouldn’t be played anymore. (Except fro Billy Idol, that was OK)
Over the half hour I could tolerate the atmosphere of the place I heard the worst playlist imaginable, including “Dude looks like a lady,” “You shook me all night long,” and I think some Whiteshanke and Def Lepard… This trash was played so loudly that it was absolutely impossible to hear what was being said across one’s table.
If your idea of a good time is reading lips while listening to Sammy Hagar and paying literally twice the going rate for a drink that will take a quarter of an hour to arrive, then go check revolver out. Otherwise go around the corner to Maloneys.
