LAWRENCE Piano bar holds opening features dueling pianists
Associated Press
Last night was the grand opening for Lawrence's new dueling piano bar, The Barrel House, 729 New Hampshire St., which was originally scheduled to open March 26.
"We want people to be impressed so we want to do things right the first time instead of having to fix it once we open," Emily said. "This whole week we've gotten very little sleep."
Construction delays and a wait for materials to arrive caused twin sisters and Prairie Village seniors Emily and Alex Akers to rethink their bar's opening date.
— Michelle Sprehe
The Barrel House is open from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. tonight and tomorrow night. Regular hours are Monday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. Dueling piano entertainment is on Thursday through Saturday, beginning at 8 p.m.
"We just want to make sure everyone's satisfied when they walk out," Emily said. "It's going to be a bumpy ride in the beginning but after this weekend we'll have smooth sailing."
The bar has entertainment booked for the next six months and all of the VIP lounges are reserved for this weekend. Emily, Alex and their business partner Danny Williams gave tours of the bar before opening and received positive feedback.

'Rescue Me' returns to put out, kindle more fires
Associated Press
This FX drama has dared to picture New York City firefighters as loutish, madcap and self-destructive — not just heroic. At its core is Denis Leary, whose titles on the show include co-creator, co-executive producer and writer, plus his starring role as Tommy Gavin, a flawed champion among New York's.
TELEVISION
TWO LOVERS
NEW YORK — "Rescue Me" has been playing with fire since the start.
SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
As always, it's a volatile mix of action, heart, raciness and dark humor.
Bravest.
After much too long, "Rescue Me" returns for its fifth season Tuesday at 10 p.m. EDT, kicking off an extra-long run of 22 episodes.
While the series has a raw topicality, it's rooted in the ruins of 9/11. Among Tommy's fellow firefighters who lost their lives that day, a cousin (and Tommy's best friend) died at ground zero, later haunting him in visions.
But there are also fires to put out, of course. This explains why
WEEKEND TIMES ONLY! • ADULTS $8.00 • $6.00(MATINEE), SENIOR
EARN $40 TODAY.
$80 THIS WEEK.
This season, Tommy's wounds are reopened (and his hacks raised) when a sexy French journalist arrives at the firehouse, researching the tragedy for a coffee table book to mark the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks.
Guest stars have always sparked "Rescue Me," and this season is no different. First up: Michael J. Fox in a multi-episode arc gets under Tommy's skin as the obnoxious guy dating Tommy's estranged wife.
This sequence, from an episode to air late this season, will show the men of 62 Truck responding to a call at a blazing brownstone. It will also introduce a character played by guest star Maura Tierney, who pulls up in a cab to find her home on fire, then defies Tommy's efforts to bar her entry with a swift kick to his privates. (Can romance be far behind?)
