Buckethead @ Gothic Theatre, Englewood CO, 2025-06-05

 

Here is a pretty recent recording.  This time from my friend Ramiro.  He made a nice capture of Buckethead at the Gothic back in June of 2025. He shared it with me to share with y'all.

I've never seen Buckethead myself but have been aware of him since his weird long fingered picture in an 80s guitar magazine.  Google it.  He's a shredder and there is lots of shredding happening.
Sounds nice too.  Enjoy.

Camarosmith, Colorado Invasion 2002, September 28th and 29th















Camarosmith from Seattle Washington was formed by Don E. Paycheck and Jeff Matz while Zeke was broken up / on hiatus after 2001. The were joined by Chris Johnsen, Pat Brown, & Ben Rew and the toured a bunch for a couple years.  Zeke got back together and eventually Jeff joined High on Fire.

They play stadium rock n roll with some swagger.  Donny and Jeff really click as a rhythm section and the guitarists rip.  A solid set of original songs and a choice Judas Priest cover.  The Denver set is an nice audience recording and the Ft Collins is a ok board mix.  Both are a fun listen.  Enjoy.

Spiritualized @ Mercury Cafe, Denver CO, 1995-10-25


I was looking through what is left of the unposted MarcR archive I have and this Spiritualized show stood out.  And recently news of the Mercury Cafe, now The Pearl, was closing and then it was seized by the city for back taxes.  Sounds like the owner was either unscrupulous or incompetent.   Hopefully all that gets worked out and it ends up under better stewardship.  The spot is a Denver institution going back to the 80s.

I was going to post this show awhile ago but I did some basic looking around and it seemed that it had been shared.  While revisiting it I found that there is a reference to a audience recording existing on a fan site but no source info or links to a recording.  So this must have been traded some on DAT I imagine but no one is sharing it presently so here it is.

Sound is pretty good just like most of Marc's recordings.  Crowd is a bit chatty in spots but not terribly so.  All round fun listen.  Enjoy.

Spiritual Cramp @ Marquis Theatre, Denver CO, 2026-03-13

 





Here is a fresh one.  Fantastic punk rock n roll band out of San Francisco Spiritual Cramp.  I first heard these guys when I saw them open up for Militarie Gun in 2023.  I picked up the set titled album and listened to the hell out of it.  Caught them again at Punk Rock Bowling in 2025.  Fun to see them again on a smaller stage in 2026.  Not for long I imagine.  They have a big rock sound and are going places.

Great setlist, fun banter, good sound.  Enjoy.

Early Man @ Larimer Lounge, Denver CO, 2005-11-06


 Here is a 2005 Early Man show at the Larimer Lounge.  They were/are Mike Conte's heavy metal thrash band active mostly in the aughts.  On this night they were touring behind their album "Closing In" that got released on Matador.  Who doesn't put out much heavy stuff.  I really like that album and the EP.  I need to check out the post 2010 stuff.  The dude can riff.

Guitars sound really big on this and vocals are lost a bit.  Mike informs the crowd he is "sick as a dog" and that no doubt effected his voice.  Some songs he sounds good.  Short and sweet.  Enjoy.
