CHOMP WOMP SODA FEST JUNE 19TH
@ THE PISTOL & FOUNDATION (1219 UNION and 1221 UNION, WEST BOTTOMS KCMO)

The Chomp Womp Soda Fest will be an over-caffeinated celebration of all things rad. Fourteen bands, ranging in style from shoegazey indie pop to punky bluegrass, will alternate twenty minute sets on stages housed at The Pistol and Foundation. All the while Scott Starrett (Rathaus contributor/graphic designer), Scott Stewart (Artstew Magazine), Jouvelt, and b. d. eek will try to make art among the rock and roll induced insanity. Plus there will be free cake, soda and freedom for all. That’s right, you heard me, free freedom. (Suck on that Toby Keith, you ass.) The show starts at 8:30pm and if you can’t make it, check back with The Rathaus for a recap.

Soda Fest Lineup:
HIGH DIVING PONIES

BURGER KINGDOM
ROOFTOP VIGILANTES
BOO AND BOO TOO
FORTUNING
BLEACHBLOODZ
