Corky Laing's Mountain @ Three Kings Tavern, Denver CO, 2017-06-16



Here is the headliner of the first night of the Electric Funeral Fest Vol.2.  Drummer extraordinaire Corky Laing playing songs from Mountain and other projects he has been involved in through out the years.

Corky has an extensive discography and has a million great stories.  Some of which he told on this night.  I see that him and Leslie West wrote a book about their history called Nantucket Sleighride and Other Mountain on-the-Road Stories.  I'll bet that is a good read.

He brought along a pretty hot shit band and had a very enthusiastic reception from the late night crowd.  I saw a bunch of people wearing Mountain shirts at the Fest the next day.

Good times great oldies.  Enjoy

Whores @ Hi Dive, Denver CO, 2017-05-29


So many great tours roll through Denver.  It's impossible to catch them all.  Sometime fantastic shows get skipped for other shows and sometimes you just can't make it.

Grateful to Jim Hucks for capturing the Whores at the Hi Dive back at the end of May and for letting me share it with y'all

Reminds me a lot of all the old Amphetamine Reptile bands of yore that I loved so much.  Going to make sure I see these guys live next time they come to town.

Enjoy

Kinky Friedman @ The Oriental Theater, Denver CO, 2017-05-12







Being a fan of Waylon and Willie and their Texas associations.  I've had Kinky Friedman on my radar for awhile.  Missed him coming through town the last few times and figured it was about time I caught him live.

Despite my excitement I ended up missing the first 15 or so minutes of his set.  What I did see was pretty great.  Super quite respectful crowd.  You could literally hear a pin drop.

His delivery of The Ballad of Ira Hayes is downright chilling.  Kinky tells a pretty interesting story about how he found out Nelson Mandela had been a fan of his too.  Enjoy

Thanks to James Lambert for the use of his photos.
