Sunset Rubdown Hi-Dive 04-17-07 Side bands are rarely taken seriously. They are usually created as something to fill up the time between albums or tours. Usually.

Le Ballet Bluebird Theatre 04-16-07 Last night marked the first big show for Denver band Le Ballet. I am very pleased with their performance for several reasons. Their music first and foremost speaks for itself. That said, there were a little quips that are going to be ironed out with experience, playing more shows, and…

Westword Music Showcase I love Westword . I anxiously await Wednesday evenings or Thursday morning to get my hot mittens on the latest issue of Denver’s Independent Weekly Paper. Every Summer they put together a music festival that usually somewhat peaks my interest, but this year, fuck, they go and get Dinosaur Jr. and Lucero…
Birdmonster Hi-Dive 04-12-07 So the blizzard that was suppose to dump 7 inches yesterday and 7 more in the morning never happened. I hate weather forecasters. Birdmonster came to Denver and killed it, plus the guys showcased some new material that they had just written that was SMASHING! I love their youthful energy and all…
