Split Lip Rayfield @ Aggie Theater, Fort Collins CO, 2006-09-31

 

I'm a huge Split Lip Rayfield fan and caught 2 of their 2006 Colorado shows on Kirk's last tour.  I must have downloaded this Ft Collins show from COTapers.  Not sure.  All these years latter I was cleaning out a stack of CDRs and DVDs with various stuff on them and ran across this show.

I pulled it off to listen to it and it is really nice.  Taper Eric Wilkens did a great job capturing this.  I also noticed that this show wasn't up on the SLR LMA page so I tagged all the files and got it posted up there.  No other edits were done to Eric's files other than tagging them and reconfiguring the ingo files.  Figured I might as well share it around.  Enjoy.

Quits @ Hi Dive, Denver CO, 2024-05-03 {RIP Luke Fairchild FID}

 

Sad to hear of the passing of Luke Fairchild.  He was in bands in Denver most all of his adult life.  Most well know being Git Some.  His other most active band at the moment was Quits.  Here is a Quits performance from back in May of 2024 at the Hi Dive.  Their last album called "Feeling It" is so good.

Condolences to all his close friends and family.  I got to know him sometime in the aughts I think and was all glad to run into him and shoot the shit.  He will be miss.

Rex Hobart and The Misery Boys @ Benders Tavern, Denver CO, 2005-10-07


I lost a lot of my 2005 WAV files.  Some I lost forever and some I have found burned onto CDRs.  Including todays post.  A fantastic set from Kansas City band Rex Hobart and The Misery Boys live at Benders Tavern in Denver Colorado.  Back on October 7th 2005.  

I looked it up and it was a Friday night.  Rex talks about going to the big beer fest before the show. So this must have happened during the Great American Beer Fest that year.  I kind of recall that I went to the GABF and then came to this show afterwards.  It's only 74 minutes long but the sound guy has to tell the back to stop because it is literally closing time so this must have run late.  Sound guy also gave me a board feed and a killer mix.

I had kind of forgotten what fantastic songs Rex writes.  Great wordplay and a shit hot backing band.
Great fun revisiting this one today.  I had came across the CDR of this show.  I was sure it was never to been seen.  Enjoy.

Schizophonics @ Hi Dive, Denver CO, 2024-03-18

 







This was my first time catching San Diego band Schizophonics live.  Hopefully it won't be the last.  They are a super high energy rock n roll extravaganza.  Start to finish.  What a good time.

I figured this early 2024 show would be a good end of 2024 post.  Happy New Year.

Hotline TNT @ Marquis Theater, Denver CO, 2024-06-15

 


Great newish band Hotline TNT came through Denver earlier this year.  I loved the album "Cartwheel" that they put out last year.  Was excited to catch them live.  The show was put on as an afterparty to an event that Thrasher Magazine did earlier in the day.  Crowd was full of real young kids maybe seeing their first real show and actual mosh pit.  It was pretty fun to see.

Hotline TNT was loud!!  Great varied setlist and a new song even.  Good times.

Brian Setzer Orchestra @ The Filmore, Denver CO, 1999-08-09

 

Here is one from when the big band revival at the time stalked the earth.   A lot of that wasn't my bag necessarily but Brian Setzer always got a pass from me since I am a big Stray Cats fan.  He has a hot shit road tested orchestra at this point in 1999.  Mr. Setzer is doing it right.

This was not long after the change over from the Mammoth Events Center to the Fillmore.  Brian Setzer comments on how nice the fixed up the place.  Mammoth was a run down dump.  Charming but it needed some work.

I think this sounds pretty good for a show in that room too.  I haven't listened to this since the early aughts.  Was pleasantly surprised and decided to share it. Enjoy.

Son Volt @ Bluebird Theatre, Denver CO, 1995-12-16

 


On the beer stained battlefields of the alt.country wars in the mid 90s lines were drawn and sides were chosen.  After Uncle Tupelo split, into the bands Wilco and Son Volt, fan divisions were stark.  As you will hear on this recording.  Towards the start and occasionally through out the show an enthusiastic fan will holler "Fuck Wilco!".   Seem harsh now but that is just how it was down in the trenches.

This is another of the MarcR DATs.  What a great capture.  Hell of a setlist too.  Lots of Son Volt songs from the then brand new album Trace.  Six Uncle Tupelo songs and a few other choice covers.  What a gem of a show. Enjoy
