Fan Favorite LRB Returned to Star Pavilion Stage at Ameristar Casino
After a three-year absence from their traditional annual stop at Ameristar Casino in KCMO, Little River Band returned triumphantly to the Star Pavilion stage on May 2, 2026, delivering another sold-out evening that reminded fans why the group remains one of the venue’s most dependable annual draws. Led by longtime vocalist and bassist Wayne Nelson alongside Chris Marion, Bruce Wallace, Ryan Ricks, and Colin Whinnery, the band leaned heavily into the soaring harmonies and polished musicianship that have defined the act for decades, with crowd favorites—including “The Night Owls,” “Take It Easy On Me,” “Man On Your Mind” and “Lonesome Loser”—earning massive singalongs throughout the night. This performance featured a few fresh twists to the familiar Little River Band formula, including acoustic and a cappella medleys, plus the inclusion of several deeper catalog selections alongside the band’s signature radio hits, giving longtime fans a slightly refreshed experience while preserving the polished soft-rock sound that has made the group a perennial Kansas City favorite.
