Orebolo, the acoustic offshoot of the wildly popular jamband Goose, set up shop at the Boulder Theater last Wednesday and left the capacity crowd in awe. Featuring Rick Mitarotonda and Peter Anspach on guitars and Jeff Arevalo on stand-up bass, the trio presented stripped down versions of Goose songs with a focus on intricate guitar interplay between the two stellar players. The crowd was full of rabid fans, with the line forming hours before the doors opened.

My Morning Jacket returned to the 1stBank Center in Broomfield for night two of their three night New Year’s run and upped the energy level a bit from the deep cuts and mellow vibe of night one. Opening with “Circuital” and “Off The Record” the band gave a foreshadowing of what was to come on New Year’s Eve. The show was highlighted by originals like “The Way That He Sings,” “Wonderful (The Way I Feel),” and “I’m Amazed” alongside a pair of glorious covers in Simon & Garfunkle’s “America” and Prince’s “Purple Rain” and left fans wanting more.

My Morning Jacket kicked-off their three night New Year’s stand at the 1stBank Center on Friday night with a two and a half hour show that touched on all eras of their nearly 20 year career. While The Jacket showcased favorites like “Golden” and “What A Wonderful Man,” and delivered a monster take on “Dondante” to close out the set, the band’s lighting rig put on a show of it’s own and dazzled the crowd with a wide variety of configurations. The boys from Kentucky proved yet again why they are known as one of the best live bands on the scene and raised expectations for a New Year’s Eve to remember.

After two stellar shows at Red Rocks in August of 2016, the return of James Murphy and LCD Soundsystem has been the talk of Denver’s music community and the city had been buzzing about this show for months. As fans filed into the arena, the band’s giant disco ball was a welcome site as it foreshadowed the giant party that was about to erupt. There was no shortage of energy in the 1stBank Center and there didn’t seem to be an empty seat in the place as the razor sharp beams of light from the disco ball probed the farthest reaches of the room.

Last Wednesday night, a criminally sparse crowd at the 1stBank Center bore witness to one of the most impressive concert productions on the scene today. French electronic pioneer, Jean-Michel Jarre, has played to some of the biggest concert crowds in history (including an audience estimated at 3.5 million in Moscow in 1997) and minutes into his performance it was immediately clear why. Jarre held back nothing in his production and delivered a full set of synth laden gems that clearly laid the groundwork for today’s EDM craze.

A Perfect Circle rolled into the 1stBank Center on Monday as they neared the midway point of their Spring tour. The show was sold out, and the audience was an exciting mix of all ages. The ever elusive style of Maynard James Keenan was evident as the band came out behind a giant screen while back lighting projected their silhouettes for us to see. They followed this stunt up with a smoke covered stage that allowed the audience to catch only a glimpse of the band through the haze.

For the second time in three years, the 1stBank Center played host a Widespread Panic Halloween throw-down. The costumed audience was a tapestry of color and imagination. Age, race, and sex were all masked by the holiday’s disguises and it was sublime to see the release of inhibitions allowing men to wear dresses and women spoof a handsy Donald Trump. It’s only once a year you can see a patron go through security wearing dynamite or have an axe sticking out of their head with ease; long live Halloween shows!
