It’s Win Stuff Wednesday, and I started my day at Chixen Kansas City on Troost. I got the Impossible burger and genuinely have not stopped thinking about it since lol.

Also… cheers to 10k. Haven’t made the celebratory reel yet, but it’s coming. Stay tuned.

Your favorite giveaways are sitting on our page right now, so go do some scrolling. I’ll tag a few favorites with details below because honestly… your social life might be booked through summer.

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Sometimes classical music really does deserve the drama. Beethoven, Mozart, and Brahms take over the 1900 Building tonight with sweeping strings, emotional chaos, and enough intensity to make modern breakup music look calm.

• Some concerts feel less like a show and more like a full reunion. The R&B Festival takes over Grandview Amphitheater on September 5th with Jacquees, Lloyd, H-Town, Changing Faces, Big Bub, and enough slow jams to turn the entire lawn into one giant singalong.

• Tim Kasher heads to The Bottleneck on May 23rd with brutally honest lyrics, indie grit, and the exact kind of songs you accidentally attach memories to.

• Punk never really dies, it just gets louder. The Damned bring their chaos to The Truman on November 4th alongside Flamin’ Groovies and The Courettes for a night that feels ripped straight out of a grimy underground club.

• Hamilton Leithauser lands at recordBar on July 19th with smoky vocals, poetic indie rock, and the kind of songs that belong on a rainy-night playlist.
