Tuesday night has evolved into something called the Tuesday Takeover at Balanca's. Use your imagination. DJ Just Jeff will be spinning the hottest elektro house, soulful Chicago house, as well as progressive. Outside of the house, he'll be throwing down progressive trance to a minimal tek.

This all goes down - until 3:00 AM, for crying out loud. Get an idea here.

KARAOKE Suicide with KJ Laura.   In case you've been wondering, Karaoke with HOT (did I say hot?) KJ Laura is the f*cking BOMB!  We can't get enough sorority girls singing "Total Eclipse of the Heart" so keep it coming! Seriously, the barrel of the gun's almost in my mouth...

Great singers, party people going crazy on the dance floor – it's Karaoke done right. No worries for shy singers, this crowd loves all the singers. If you wanna try out a new song for the first time, this is the place to do it. There's no attitude, no pretense, no bullshit – just karaoke!

You're a f*cking Rock Star at Balanca's!

It starts up at 10:00 PM and runs 'til 2:30 AM. Better get your song in early, this night has turned into a major event and just keeps getting better! Come down and sing with us until THE END.

DIGITAL PENETRATION
(downstairs in the Pyro Room)

Retro.Electro.House.Disco.Funk.Madness.

Prepare to be punctured, pierced, pricked, perforated and violated by fantastic hand-picked House + 80s, and more - until 3:00 AM. Featuring James Crandall & Casey Adams, Digital Penetration is an experiment in aural sex at Balanca's. Go ahead, say that last sentence out loud.

Kick ass DJs, drink specials, and The Balanca's Vibe. You've heard people talk about this place, now get down here and experience it!

THURSDAY NIGHT RIOT brought to you by DJs Raspy Josh & Sweeney!

These motherf*ckers DESTROY Thursday night – in a good way, that makes you bleed for more. What f*cking totally rocks about these guys is their eclectic resurrection of zombie tracks from genres you wish you were still cool enough to own. Post-Punk? Check. Dirtcore? Check. Industrial? Check. Thrash? Check. Acid Jazz? Check.

Ministry / Skinny Puppy / NIN / Misfits / Black Flag / Sisters of Mercy / Fugazi / KMFDM / My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult / Nitzer Ebb / Dead Kennedys / Suicidal Tendencies / Rancid / Sex Pistols + awesome local stuff you don't even know? Get your ass down here for cheap, cheap PBR, Jim Beam shot specials + killer music!

The Titans of Air Hockey also RULE on this night. Come down and compete against the masters, or simply join one of their clans and be granted a game.

DJs / Live Music : ...and the weekend begins at Balanca's!

We light it up Friday night, with 2 levels of party! The Pyro Room (downstairs) will be blasting insanity, starting at 10:00pm. Party people from all over keep this place at a fever pitch until 3:00 AM.

Upstairs: DJ SCSI Bunny, Experimental Barbershop Quartet
Downstairs: DJ Joel playing eclectic dance music all night long - request a song!

The main bar is usually a little more chill than downstairs, and is a good place to come for a breather, when the heat gets too intense downstairs! Play some pool, darts, relax in spacious seating – whatever you need to do, and get back to the party!

We serve damn good food until 2:00 AM nightly.

DISCLAIMER: The things your friends have told you are probably true.


SATURDAY NIIIIIGHT MOTHERF*CKERS!   The Pyro Room ignites at 10:00 PM, with gay/straight/swingers dancing & partying together – all night long. The people are the show on this night! Get down here and party with the most diverse crowd in the city. This is how it's supposed to happen, and it kicks ass.

2 levels of party – DJs are on the main floor playing an eclectic mix of music from 10:00 PM - 3:00 AM. Darts, Pool, Drinks and People!

The mix of people at Balanca's keeps this place alive and on fire. You know those politically correct ads where they always have the "perfect" mix of different kinds of people? Balanca's is the ONLY place in KC that actually pulls it off and it's a f*cking BLAST!

If you need more proof, check out the party photos in our Media Archive.

s l e e p.  We sleep in after crazy weekends, kitties! Meow!

Still resting up after a crazy weekend! If you were here on Saturday, you'd know why we're closed Mondays. Beauty sleep! Get ready for Phat Tuesday.
