Sleigh Bells – October 23rd – The Boulder Theater

Estimated read time 3 min read

Last Tuesday night at The Boulder Theater, an eclectic group gathered for the Alternative/Indie Rock duo Sleigh Bells. When the dust had settled, and the strobes were unplugged, it was clear that Sleigh Bells heavy and silky style is one that people love and find it easy to relate to. From the vintage cheering beats reminiscent of 80’s band The Go-Gos, to the metal riffs and electronica beats of today, Sleigh Bells have it all and know exactly how to put on a great performance.

Estimated read time 4 min read

Last Saturday night, The Flight For Life Benefit and KBCO’s 35th Anniversary concert was held at the 1stBank Center in Broomfield. With performances from KBCO darlings like The Dunwells, Amos Lee, and Sheryl Crow it was a bit surprising that the modest arena was only a little over half-full of fans, radio station devotees, and folks out to support a great cause. Despite this, nothing could stop this group from having a great time.

As the music roared in the background and the band members flailed around the stage, the crowd morphed, tightened, and the crush became too much to handle. The excitement of a high-energy Rock show turned to terror for everyone in the front row. It wasn’t long before a longtime concert photographer was covered in blood and had to be helped on stage to escape the mayhem. It was a true nightmare for some.

Bruce Hornsby – August 30th – Denver Botanic Gardens

Estimated read time 4 min read

A crowd peppered mainly with 30 something couples and high-spirited baby boomers settled in on the lawn of the Denver Botanic Gardens Thursday night by draping blankets and uncorking bottles of wine. The well-dressed group seemed eager to enjoy the smooth sounds of Nicki Bluhm and the freewheeling Bruce Hornsby. The heat of the day had subsided and a few gray clouds slowly rolled in at this urban, yet intimate, location. The gathering had energy and seemed ready to party, in that loafers and khaki shorts kind of way.
