We♥KC! July 8-14, 2024 Upcoming concerts / shows (Kansas City MO / Lawrence KS)

Halfway through July, which means some sweltering temps, severe storms, and other weather wonders. We’ve seen a few outdoor shows which were threatened, but everything passed by, and the show would go on (fingers crossed)- even so, be prepared just in case.

A little of the old, a little of the new this week, with a mix that anyone should be able to find a show or two, that is to their liking.

Let’s take look at the Kansas City / Lawrence KS metro musical happenings for the upcoming week, from July 8th-14th.

AthFest 2015

AthFest is a well-oiled machine, and they run a tight ship. The 19th annual installment of this festival- which ran from Friday June 26 through Sunday June 28, 2015 in Athens, GA- was no exception. I was impressed at how the bookers, organizers and- most of all- the stage crews were able to stagger the bands just so; there was no overlap between any bands on the outdoor stages and therefore no cacophony. None of the Club Crawl bands started playing until after the last outdoor acts for each evening had ended their sets, so we festivalgoers at AthFest 2015 were able to take in music well into the night.
