In 1974, Kansas had one shot to impress a record producer. The meeting
was set in the tiny town of Ellinwood, Kansas - population around 800.
They needed a full house. So they came up with a simple plan: offer free beer to everyone who came to the show. The room was packed. The energy was electric. And the producer (Don Kirschner) was impressed enough to sign them to a record deal.
A little free beer, a lot of loud music, and a career that was just getting started. Kirschner financed the band out of his own pocket through four albums. When they released 'Carry on my wayward son', they finally hit gold and the rest is history. A version of theband still tours to this day...
