Well, that's odd.
According to Google Maps, 1007 E. 8th, in KS, MO, is a vacant lot...

I've played a lot of gigs where we needed to "take the money and run" before they changed their minds-or totaled up the band's bar tab.  |

That is correct today, but I can trace back when there was a boarding house there, by using this old address as search word in newspapers dot com. Rooms for rent. Old classified ads also specify there is a piano for common use. |
