Dave Schools said, “I think that most people don’t have a preconceived notion and they like the air of mystery. I know we do.” … Continue reading Widespread Panic | Fillmore Auditorium | Denver, CO | Review

Phil Lesh & Friends | 1st Bank Center | 2/16/12 | Review

By the fall of 1994, the Grateful Dead scene was growing unmanageably large. Even large mainstay venues that the boys have been performing at for decades were too small anymore. The performance that used to be a not-so-well-kept secret had grown to sell out the largest football and soccer stadiums. At this point, the smallest… Continue reading Phil Lesh & Friends | 1st Bank Center | 2/16/12 | Review

Phil Lesh & Friends | 1st Bank Center | 2/17/12 | Review

Specific aromas have the power to transport me back to an earlier, more youthful time: the earthy redolence of decaying leaves, mesquite smoke wafting from a neighbor’s barbeque, and even the gamy stench of a hockey locker room. I also have triggers for my ocular, haptic, gustatory, and aural senses. All of us do. And… Continue reading Phil Lesh & Friends | 1st Bank Center | 2/17/12 | Review

Ruthie Foster | L2 Arts and Culture Center | 2|18|12 | Review

Ruthie Foster and her band put on an interesting show at the L2 Center in Denver this past Saturday.

Her solo material combines her gospel roots with elements of jazz, blues fusion,… Continue reading Ruthie Foster | L2 Arts and Culture Center | 2|18|12 | Review

Yonder Makes The 1 Year Wait Worth It For Us Southern Fla Folk

Expecting an opening act, we arrived at the venue an hour after the doors were to open. There turned out to be no opening act, and the wait for the band went on for a seemingly endless 2++ hours. There was little entertainment aside from an unruly hula hooper among the large, otherwise well behaved… Continue reading Yonder Makes The 1 Year Wait Worth It For Us Southern Fla Folk

Yonder Mountain String Band | Revolution | 2/17/12

Going to see Yonder Mountain String Band in your t-shirt and shorts in February is pretty special, especially when you’re from Boulder. I was lucky enough to catch YMSB last night, which for me is fortuitous timing considering I am in town visiting my mom (and planning a monster trip to The Galapagos next week).… Continue reading Yonder Mountain String Band | Revolution | 2/17/12

Elephant Revival | Boulder Theater | eTown | 02|12|2012 | Review

“In the woods, we return to reason and faith. There I feel that nothing can befall me in life, — no disgrace, no calamity (leaving me my eyes), which nature cannot repair. Standing on the bare ground, — my head bathed by the blithe air and uplifted into infinite space, — all mean egotism vanishes.”–… Continue reading Elephant Revival | Boulder Theater | eTown | 02|12|2012 | Review
