Mondays from 8pm to 11pm and Tuesday from 8pm to 12pm it's Karaoke nite - by Soundwaves Karaoke XLT. Some of the best singers in Topeka show up here. The sound system is fantastic, the people tuned in and the music selection is extensive - and if they don't have it, ask for it! It will probably arrive in the books the very next week.
Thursday nights we have an in-house, open jam session, hosted by Lil' Ernie. Bring you instruments and join us. 7pm to 11pm.
For what's coming up, be sure to check our calendar!
Description: The name "Loose Change" is an indirect reference to the years of experience each member brings to this lineup. Arch fronted the band "Venus Alley" in Montana for 13 years before relocating to Topeka. Ryan and Bill have each played in various projects, notably "The Buzz" in Topeka. Taking all of the experience and throwing it into one "pot" so to speak, is like a gathering of loose change... each like a remnant of a dollar, but when put together, has as much or more of the original power.
Voted Topeka's #3 Top Band! Live and ready to party! 70's Rock to the BEST New Rock, these guys have the party bases covered! Come see what the fuss is all about.
