The Spits @ Hi Dive, Denver CO, 2022-11-04

 






The Spits are so much fun.  I love seeing this band.  Colorado doesn't get a lot of chances.  Before this it had been 10 years since they were here.   Also at the Hi Dive.  So it made sense that they would play the Hi Dive's 20th anniversary shows.

The Spits aren't an encore kind of band but since you can't get "backstage" from the stage at the Hi Dive.  You either walk off or play some more.  We got some more songs on this night.  Great show.  Sounds really nice I think too.  Enjoy.

Cheap Trick @ Ball Arena, Denver CO, 2023-08-01

 


Here is the Cheap Trick opening set from the Rod Stewart show last week.  I had never seen Cheap Trick for some reason despite being a fan since childhood in the 70/80s.   I can't remember where I first heard them but I had a copy of the 1980 single " Everything Works If You Let It / Way Of The World" and I remember them being on the soundtrack to the 1979 coming of age movie "Over The Edge".

Over The Edge deserves a little side note.  This is a pretty wild movie that was filmed in Colorado.  Location were up in Greeley for the school scenes and down by Cherry Creek Reservoir for the rest.  Great rock n roll sound track and some fun rowdy dialog that I loved as a kid.  Matt Dylan's first movie roll as well.

As expected Cheap Trick's set is mostly all the hits but we get a song from their 2021 album even.  Fun show and I would see them again for sure.  Now I just need a time machine to go back and see them in their heyday.   Enjoy.

Rod Stewart @ Ball Arena, Denver CO, 2023-08-01












This was my second time seeing Rod Stewart.  I caught him in the early aughts when he did an "evening with" at the same hockey arena.    That time he did two sets.  One of songs from the great American songbook.  The second set was all of his hits.

This time he brought Cheap Trick along and just played an all hits set.  Fun night.  Didn't expect him to have just a wild projection light show.   Hell of a production.

Pretty happy how this turned out so I wanted to share it sooner rather than later.  Enjoy
