The Woggles @ Tiki Oasis, San Diego, CA, 2016-08-21

We saw a bunch of great bands in San Diego at the Tiki Oasis festival.  But I was most excited to see the Woggles who closed out the festival on Sunday night.  These guys don't tour very often so I never thought I might get the chance to see them.

Super fun high energy set from these The Woggles in front of a jazzed up crowd.   Good times.  I loved it.

Enjoy

Against Me! @ The Marquis, Denver CO, 2016-09-02

Long time no post.  Been a busy fun summer.  Coming back with a bang though.

Against Me! at the intimate Marquis Theater in Denver Colorado.  What a treat!  We had already planned to catch them at Riot Fest on Saturday so a bonus show at the Marquis was icing on the cake.

Hands down best Against Me! show I've ever seen.  Greta mix of new songs and older classics.  I think everyone walked away happy.  I know I did.  They busted out a pretty sweet Clash cover too.  Good crowd and good times.

Enjoy!!

Karma To Burn @ Three Kings Tavern, Denver CO, 2016-05-28

First time catching these guys live.  Never really delved into their catalogue before but have liked the songs that I have heard over the years.  Really solid addition to The Obsessed tour.

William Mecum's guitar tone is on fire!!!  Will defiantly catch these guys live again next time I have a chance.

This is one of the first recordings that I did with my freshly repaired JKLabs preamp.  Love the way that thing captures sounds.  Enjoy!

The Obsessed @ Three Kings Tavern, Denver CO (USA), 2016-05-28

Pretty big fan of any and all of Wino's projects.  Never thought I would get to see The Obsessed.  Great to see them back together and working on new music.

Cool mix of old and new Obsessed songs in the setlist and some Spirit Caravan tunes for good measure.

Sick guitar tone.  As you hear a guy yelling on this.  Wino Rules!!!!!

The Briefs @ The Summit Music Hall, Denver CO, 2016-06-02

It had been well over a decade since I had seen the Briefs.  The last time was in the early aughts at the Climax Lounge in Denver.  They came out on stage and instead of their normal skinny ties they all had grocery store trout hanging from their necks.  That lasted maybe 30 seconds before the fish got tossed into the crowd.  And then tossed back on stage.  A super gross game of catch.  Fish ended up smashed all over the floor.

I was glad not to get a repeat of that night.  Just all the punk rock hits.  Enjoy

The Bronx @ The Riot Room, Kansas City MO, 2016-06-17

Hell Yeah!!!!  The Bronx rules!!!!  This isn't my recording but the audio was passed to me by my friend Jim Hucks (Denco83) to post on my site since I'm a big fan.  You can check out his video of the show here.

The Bronx are a band that I have loved from the first note of theirs that I ever heard.  I was immediately a fan.  One of the select bands that I own pretty much all of their releases and I have seen many many times.

So I was extra stoked that Jim shared this with me.  It my pleasure to share it with you now.  Enjoy

Steely Dan @ Red Rocks, Morrison CO, 2016-06-13

I can appreciate that Steely Dan is a great band, and Steve Winwood who opened, but it's just not the kind of music I listen to on a regular basic.  Nor are these kind of concerts where you would normally find me.

A good friend called me months ago and floated the idea of me tagging along on for this one and I figured why not.  I had never seen Steely Dan or Steve Winwood.  Red Rocks is always an amazing experience too.

Well I definitely got more than I had bargained for in the experience department at this show.  About 15 minutes into Steve Winwood's set it started raining.  It had been intermittently sprinkling on and off all afternoon so not a big surprise.  Then it started coming down really hard and a man came on the stage and said "the show isn't canceled but you should go seek shelter right now".  Then it started hailing.  For about 15 minutes straight.  Marble to pea sized in general.  Not fun.  We hunkered down and waited for it to blow over.  I got totally soaked.  On the plus side it stayed pretty warm after the weather blew over.

Recording at Red Rocks can be tough.  After the weather blew through we were blessed with a totally calm night with damp heavy air.  That contributed to some great acoustics.  Even though I wasn't very close I think this turned out really nice.  Enjoy!!
