The Black Crowes – November 13th – Ogden Theatre

Estimated read time 6 min read

Any time the line to enter The Ogden stretches down Colfax and around the corner onto Odgen Street you know you have a crowd eager to see one of their favorite bands. This was certainly the case last Wednesday night as a dedicated and seasoned crowd showed up early on a beautiful fall evening. As the veteran crowd filed into the theater, the vibe at first was very mellow but anticipation quickly grew and became electric as we waited to see one of America’s greatest Rock and Roll bands.

Giving in to the music and the mud, we approached the weekend humbled by both and decided to rage along with the rain as hard as we could.
