Estimated read time 10 min read

Rancho Del Rio was home to Campout for the Cause again this year. While over the years it had traveled downstream to the State Bridge venue, this year, founder and promoter, Scott Stoughton decided to return the festival to its roots by placing it back at the pseudo-shanty town/river paradise that sits against the back drop to the usually peaceful Colorado River. It didn’t turn out to be so peaceful this weekend, but we’ll get to that later.

Justin Townes Earle – June 16th – Mishawaka Amphitheatre

Estimated read time 4 min read

The snowmelt-filled Poudre River roared down the canyon and behind the stage at the scenic Mishawaka Amphitheatre last Saturday night. The crowd of college kids, older cowboys and mountain men and their sundress clad girlfriends showed up early to enjoy beer and a nice summer evening. The rugged stage and buildings that surrounded it looked and smelled like the dinning hall at a summer camp with a little less bug spray and a lot more beer.

On the heels of the meteoric surge in popularity Of Monsters and Men has experienced this past year as they rose from Icelandic obscurity to chart topping success in the US the sold-out Boulder Theater was packed with fans of the Icelandic pop folk group and their two unique and outstanding vocalists.

Tennis & Paper Bird – June 16th – Chautauqua Auditorium

Estimated read time 4 min read

A modest crowd gathered at Chautauqua in Boulder Saturday evening for the return of two young local bands. Both Paper Bird and Tennis hail from Colorado and this marked their first experience with the “musical theater” that is Chautauqua auditorium. It was certainly a beautiful evening and the hallowed auditorium transported the crowd to a different era. It is calm, quiet and played a brilliant host to the angelic vocal talents that Paper Bird and Tennis both possess.
