Ice-T @ Warped Tour, Denver CO, 1999-07-11

Here is another from my 1999 Warped Tour recordings.   Ice-T right before he went on to be in Law and Order.  Ice spends a fair amount of time kicking the knowledge as he might say.  Was a big fan from Power on so I remember being stoked to catch the Iceberg.

While promoting his new internet only released Seventh Deadly Sin he asks the crowd if they even know what the internet is.  This doesn't feel that long ago but 20 years will creep up on you.

I think I get into the pit slightly during There Goes The Neighborhood.  Sound is a bit blown out there.  Otherwise a fun listenable audience recording.  Enjoy

Hank Von Hell @ Oriental Theater, Denver CO, 2019-08-17

Former singer of the band Turbonegro is back with own band and fresh batch of death punk ditties.

Fun enough show.  Hank sure can be long winded at times.  Interestingly the band had no on stage amps and just played direct into the sound system.  Effected the overall sound a bit I think.  Not as in or face and a stage full of amps would have been.   Sure makes it easier to tour I bet.

Enjoy

Less Than Jake @ Warped Tour, Denver CO, 1999-07-11

Pretty fun year for Warped tour.  Lots of great bands.  This year it was in the north parking lot of the original Mile High Stadium.

Here is a short but rowdy set from Less Than Jake.  Right before Automatic one of the horn section guys says "Fuck John Elway and the Denver Broncos" right in the shadow of the stadium.  I thought it was pretty funny but many in the crowd did not and started to throw stuff at the band.  Mostly unsuccessfully.  Later the band chastises the crowd for having such bad aim and makes another dig at the Broncos.   Good stuff.

Enjoy

BR5-49 @ Bluebird Theater, Denver CO, 2000-12-30

Another one from awhile back.  Shifting gears from UK punk to some American honky tonk.
BR5-49 put on a monster show.  30 plus songs over almost 2 hours.  Great originals and a lot of choice covers.

I had forgotten how much I liked how this recording turned out.  Very enjoyable listen.
Fresh transfer  from the master for this post.

Being right before New Years eve with the Railbenders opening for them this crowd was primed to party.  Good times.

The Damned @ Bluebird Theater, Denver CO, 2001-10-07

I guess I'll keep going on the UK punk rocks shows in Denver during the aughts theme.

Here is The Damned at the Bluebird in 2001.  My first time seeing them.  Oh course they were fantastic.  Captain Sensible is super chatty this night.  Lots of the hits and some song from their new record at the time Grave Disorder.

During the time of this show I was Supersuckers fanatic.  The Supersuckers recorded a song called The Captain for their country record Must've Been High.  It's a not so flattering ode to Mr. Sensible about a time they tried to work together in the studio and it just didn't work out.

Being a cheeky little monkey I wore my orange Supersuckers shirt with a 100 proof evil sheriff's badge on the front to the show.   After the show The Damned were hanging out next to their rented RV signing stuff and talking to fans.  I joined in the small crowd and eventually asked The Captain if he would sign my shirt thinking it would be funny.  Suspecting that he might see it was a Supersuckers shirt and tell me to fuck off.  But nope.  He says "Sure mate".  Takes my sharpie pen and writes really big " Phil Collins Must DIE!   - Captain Sensible".  I look at it to see what he wrote and he goes "Pretty funny ye Mate".  Indeed Captain, indeed.

Most likely traded this out some on CDR but I don't think I ever torrented it.  This is a fresh transfer from the original masters.  An enjoyable listen I think.

UK Subs @ Lion's Lair, Denver CO 2002-08021

Here is the second show I caught on that hot August night back in 2002.  This was back when the stage at the Lion's Lair was right behind the bar and not back in the corner by the window where it is now.  Charlie Harper mentions it atone point.  They have played lots of shows with barricades but the barricade was never the bar.

Sound starts off a bit rough but gets better.   Epic night.

Enjoy.

Sonic Youth @ Ogden Theater, Denver CO 2002-08-21

Here is part 1 of a series.  2 bands I saw at two different venues in one night.  First up my friend Tom and I caught Sonic Youth at the Ogden Theater.   Then we went down the street to catch the UK Subs at the Lion's Lair.  Fun night.

I recall that it was insanely hot in the Ogden this night.   There was a literal heat wall between the lobby and the venue.   I remember it being so sweltering that I listened from the lobby for a good portion of the show. 

This is from SY's tour for Murray Street.  Nice mix of old and new and the band seems really into it.

Enjoy
