*** Andrew Bird*** Mile High Music Festival*** Day 1 I had my doubts about about going to Commerce City for a music festival. I live in Denver. The only time I ever go to Commerce City is when I’m driving from my in-laws house in Westminster and we’re going to the new shopping mecca past…
Supergrass :: Larimer Lounge :: 07.14.08:: Just when everybody thought that the ship had sailed to see Supergrass open up for FOO Fighters, they go and win the good faith of their fans by putting on a one off show last night at a near capacity venue. Not bad, considering the short notice. England’s favourite…
***Girl Talk I kind of regret not going. I’d seen him twice already and they have the same result. He starts off with all his clothes on and by the end of the night, everybody and their grandmother hit the stage and all the of Greg Gillis’s clothes are shed by the end. Despite Castro…
::: Constantines::: Hi-Dive::: 07.08.08I missed out on Ladyhawk, and I would soon live to regret it. I’m sure their alcohol drenched spectacle was infused with tons of whiskey, and guitar licks for miles. Alas, making their second Denver debut, the other was the night before at an unannounced, at least to the public, Rhinoceropolis show…
*** Dead Confederate*** SoCo Music Fest*** 06.28.08 I promise that this will be the last SoCo post for the day. Heather wrote a very nice piece over at Paste and Castro played with his new toy. I wish I had more to report about. The good ol’ Athens boys looked very awkward on stage to…
::: Gnarls Barkley::: SoCo Music Fest::: 06.28.08 I feel kind of bad. The guys sounded like they were giving it their all on stage and they were a tad on the boorish side. I don’t know if it was all the hype from their first album, or was it the crowd only being familiar with…
*** Blonde Redhead*** SoCo Music Fest*** 06.28.08 In a rare chance to catch this band live, I pounced on the opportunity and needless to say, I was not disappointed. The female/male vocal exchange is one of my favorite parlor tricks in the game. The shoegazy antics peaked the interest of a very tired danced out…
*** Hot IQ’s*** SoCo Music Fest*** 06.28.08 It had been a long time since I had caught up with the kids with big brains that so happen to play music. At first I must admit that I was a bit apprehensive that they were going to have to battle over who would reign supreme in…
::: Bassnectar::: SoCo Music Festival::: 06.28.08 Bassnectar was around before Girl Talk, but the only way I could describe him to people live was like a hippie/dub Girl Talk. The energy was pretty dead until Bassnectar hit the decks and brought some of his friends on stage. Bassnectar-Burning Man Set 2007[mp3] ( this is kind…
