2225 E Central, Wichita, KS 67214
When one of the touring bands is named after a calibre of bullet, you pretty much know what to expect. Friends of the blog No Holds Barred and Bleeding Kansas, their debut at The Furnace, will be in support!
Five band mixed rock genre madness at the furnace?

I like shows like this. It's a show where the venn diagram of the five bands is going to have a pretty big area. It's $10, and you'll probably hear something you'll like!
If I'm not mistaken, this will be the first time Honor Choir and Jawline will have played in Wichita. Two solid bands with excellent local support. Shoiuld be a killer show!
Favorites Act With Empathy (A.W.E.) just got added to this stacked lineup with PRIMITIVE RAGE (false grind, hardcore, death metal) and straight edge rockers xGAARGOYLEx from Kentucky. Should be a good one!
LOCALS
No Holds Barred - Classic Southern Style Hardcore Mega Scoliosis - Wichita Grindcore Youngsters Soleta - Alt Death Metal
Jesters in Bronze - Prog Metal Duo
LOCAL SUPPORT
The Working Class - Noisy Punks (with special lineup!)
Joke Stool - The Artists Formerly Known as Several Different Things including the Eighteen Wheelers
Cheeseman
Lincoln, NE natives Ivory Daze return to Wichita with their signature brand of heavy alt shoegaze. Combined with Granule, who I really dig, this should be a fantastic show. And if you missed the FWR release show, here you go! Stacked!
