TajMo – July 24th – Denver Botanic Gardens

Estimated read time 3 min read

After a bit of a deluge put a damper on Monday evening’s TajMo concert, Tuesday looked much more promising until a big thunderstorm came swooping down toward the Botanic Gardens. Fortunately, after the staff made an attempt to clear out the bowl (which only really ended up allowing the more daring souls to grab better seats as VIPs headed for shelter), the storm stayed to the south and the show went on pretty much as planned.

The Listen Up Denver! crew rolled into Telluride with one simple intention: Do not take this for granted. We were in Telluride! Man, it was amazing! The weather was epic, the beer flowed freely and the music, oh the music. The footprints of musicians including Rich Robinson, Sharon Jones, and Otis Taylor dotted the stage throughout the weekend, and while the sun warmed the day, clear and starry skies cooled off the evenings and the dancing lasted till the wee hours of the morning.

What a night at the Denver Botanic Gardens. The weather was picture perfect and the late afternoon sun was shining on the Chihuly glass exhibit that inhabits the gardens through November. Fans of Taj Mahal and John Hiatt sipped wine as they strolled the paths, chatted with friends and took in the stunning glass that is expertly woven into the natural surroundings before being dazzled by the music that came from the stage under Chihuly’s bright orange sun.

John Hiatt & Taj Mahal – August 13th – Chautauqua Auditorium

Estimated read time 4 min read

The Chautauqua Auditorium never fails to set its own tone with each event it hosts. The historic building is set in the shadow of the Flatirons and packs a visual wow factor as you amble up the hill to the door, but then drives it home as you take your seat and absorb all the warm, wood ambiance that is standard show experience in the 116 year old structure. This line-up of the Taj Mahal Trio and John Hiatt & The Combo was a true whopper and, as you can imagine, the show was sold-out.
