Best shows I’ve been to this year: 10. Neon Indian @ The Larimer Lounge – All the pretty scenester boys and girls showed up for this one. Wish I could have seen the adorable Alan Palomo better, but we were all grooving to this one. If felt like a hazy, dreamy summer night on this cold [...]

Pop Ya Eardrums!
I’m thankful for music! 1. The Dutchess & The Duke – Sunset/Sunrise – Saw this lovely duo last week at the Larimer Lounge. Beautiful, simple, sorrowful music and surprisingly funny and charming onstage banter. Key tracks: Hands, Living This Live Makes It Hard, I Don’t Feel Anything. 2. The Dutchess & The Duke – She’s the Dutchess, [...]
Pop Ya Eardrums!
This week’s list: 1. Dan Deacon – Bromst – I think I’ve found the perfect music to both tune out my co-workers and also get shit done at work! 2. Peaches – Talk To Me and Lose You – Peaches is getting all sensitive and I like it! She’ll be at the Gothic on May [...]
Pop Ya Eardrums!
Top picks for the week: 1. Phoenix – Lisztomania – I’ve caught myself singing this song at many random times throughout the week. Looking forward to their new album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix dropping at the end of the month. 2. Friendly Fires – Jump In The Pool (The Thin White Duke Remix) - A sticky summer jam. 3. [...]
I Was There: Starfucker @ hi-dive 04.29.09
This show was so much more fun than the show we caught in Chicago. I’m sorry Chicagoans, maybe you’re all too cool for school, but us Denverites know how to enjoy a show! From hippies to hipsters, everyone just loves to dance and have a great time. No one cares if they make an ass out [...]
I Was There: Starfucker @ The Empty Bottle 04.17.09
Wow. I didn’t realize how much I missed living in Chicago until I visited this past weekend. While some friends went to see Death Cab for Cutie with Cold War Kids and Ra Ra Riot, Mieke, Patricia and I opted to see Starfucker. They changed the date and venue a few times, creating a bit of confusion, [...]
I was there: Theophilus London & Futurecop! @ hi-dive 03.06.09
Have you ever met someone that you thought was going to be extremely cool and interesting and then be totally disappointed when they turn out to be a complete douche bag? Such was our interaction with Theophilus London. We rolled into the hi-dive a little late and unfortuately missed T. L.’s set, which was the whole [...]
I Was There: The Omens Record Release Party @ The Hi-Dive 02.27.09
Friday nights are the time to rock the rock. Except when they’re not and then it’s time to shake it like a poloroid picture. The Omens, some of Denver’s finest, brought the 60s-tinged punk rock on Friday night. It was cold as fuck outside, but it was hot and sweaty up in the front row. [...]
An Open Letter to DJ Sara T.
Now that it’s the Wednesday after the first Danceotron of 2009, I can finally feel my legs again. Seriously. This wasn’t like that time I blacked out and ran my head into the bar, wondering why i woke up with such a bad headache. Oh wait…I’ve said too much. It’s about the dancing, right. And [...]
I Was There: Kissing Party @ The Hi-Dive – 01.08.09
Oh Yes. I was hoping it wouldn’t be long before I could hook you all up with some notes and snaps from a live show in Denver. What I remember is admittedly a little bourbon-soaked, but let’s go with it. Kissing Party played the Hi-Dive last night along with the Pseudo Dates and The Vitamins. [...]
