  • Grateful Dead founders Bob Weir and Phil Lesh laid siege on the Colorado Front Range this past weekend with their band, Furthur.  The 4-night run of shows started with a single, intimate performance at The Ogden Theatre in the heart of Denver, an extremely difficult ticket to obtain, and then moved up to the much larger 1st Bank Center in Broomfield where no one would be shut out.  By all reports the run featured some great music.

  • Furthur rolled into Colorado for a late summer run of shows at Red Rocks last week and though it was late in September, the weather was perfect for face melting.   Bob Weir and Phil Lesh have surrounded themselves with a young, energetic group of players who have, with some sage guidance, re-animated the Grateful Dead catalog beautifully.  They seemed to channel the energy of the '89 Dead in both vigor and accuracy and even managed to breathe new life into "Dark Star."

  • Dark Star Orchestra faced the daunting task of playing Denver on the heels of a sold-out run of Furthur shows at Red Rocks but from the first notes of "Shakedown Street" to the last notes of "Brokedown Palace" they proved they were up to the challenge.  They got the modest crowd dancing as they showed us an energy and "oneness" on stage that prove they have the best parts of Grateful Dead vibe down pat.

  • Furthur set up shop at Red Rocks for three nights this past weekend and unfortunately Saturday nights show was a bit on the sloppy side.  While the song selection was pretty good and featured some gems from the Dead catalog including "St. Stephen," "Dark Star," "Playin' In The Band," and "Uncle John's Band," the band literally seemed to be on different sheets of music at times.  Sure we all had a good time, but I guess I was just expecting more

  • As you can imagine with a Grateful Dead related show, it was a scene loaded with hippies . . . young and old . . . lots of good natured, fun loving, hippies.  There were Moms and Dads with their teenagers, there were teenagers who were there on their own, and there were plenty of Baby Boomers reliving their youth and having a blast doing it.
