Show reviews




We played the Falcon in Englewood last Friday night. It's a pretty sweet venue, comprised of a diner & stage on one side and a bowling alley and arcade on the other. Rock 'n bowl 'n food. Local band that I can't remember the name of right now opened. They were decent, kinda proggy in a way. Nice guys too. Super was on 2nd and came out and rocked it hard. Had a very nice turnout for the show. Headlining was the Detroit Cobras. Kinda cool music, but not all that dynamic. Met some cool people that run the venue and also met the folks from our publicity company as well. A big surprise was Charlie (the band's web master) and a friend flew out from Albany and surprised the band. On a funny note, there was a minor fight after the gig between some locals who were a bit on the dumb side and I think some Cobras fans. Was good for about 10 seconds of entertainment.


Saturday's show at the Aggie in Ft. Collins went over really really well despite some low numbers. Got to meet Oscar's brother who runs a coffee house nearby. Motohause Coffee. Pretty bad ass. So if you're in the Ft. Collins area stop in and check it out. Lots of new tunes being played at these shows, one of which will not leave my head. A Stones cover was also unveiled. After that I headed off with some friends while the band went up to Estes Park for a few days. I hear it's pretty much gorgeous up in those parts. So I helped out with my bud Ryan at his house that he's fixin up. Played some basketball down the road at a park. I think my body's still recovering. Felt really good though to get some excercise out in these beautiful parts of the country. Had a kick ass show Friday night at the Boulder Theater. Nice crowd turnout. Local band called Meniskus opened the show. Very good sounding band. Check 'em out.





Spent yesterday at Ryan's house for a cookout. The Rose Hill guys showed up and threw some 'shoes with us. Johnny introduced us to this game called Polish Frisbee. Fun times for sure. The band decided to spend an extra day in Boulder. Darn. So another wonderful meal at the Buff was had this morning with the best cafe breva I've head. Much love and thanks to Jacquie & crew. The day's gorgeous outside. Boulder kicks ass. Till later......
