What could be better? Located just off the Pearl Street Mall - this intimate, cozy venue makes for the perfect spot for drinks and music.

The rustic yet chic interior creates one hell of a vibe that was easily felt by all! SO fun! Bartenders were friendly, fun and willing to go the extra mile when it came to fun cocktails and made sure we enjoyed our time in between sets! Cheers to good friends, good music and a new favorite venue up north!

"Some days but I only have 5 lines and I'm only in a couple of songs so mostly no. I just sit". My kid was on stage for 8 minutes in a 75 minute show. Most days they cried after camp because so badly wanted to be "in the show" but had so little to do. Shockingly there were kids with even less stage time. This program is advertised as inclusive and many opportunities but If you don't get a lead role, be prepared to spend the day quietly "watching". Then as a final slap in the face, my kid was invited to join the AAPA group. Makes no sense at all.

We had a preplanned excursion in/around Boulder for the wknd. Heard about this venue and checked…read moreout their concert list. Lo and behold, Tab Benoit (a terrific blues singer and guitarist) was performing Saturday night! Although it appeared sold out, we lucked into 6th row, just off center (on the aisle). At just under $70/ticket it was reasonable. Tab and his bandmates (drummer and bassist) put on a nonstop 90 minute show that really highlighted Tab's extraordinary guitar playing. He also crooned a few ballads in his signature raspy voice (though not enough in our opinion)! In terms of living/performing blues artists, Tab is among the elite. Checkout the 3 video snippets for a glimpse at his versatility. The quaint venue is amazing. At over 125 years old, t's officially listed as historic. And, despite being 50+ feet high, it is made almost entirely of red wood. That yields really warm acoustics that never harshly echo. A quick glance at the calendar and it appears there's something going on 5-6 days/week. Lots of free parking, though you might have to walk a bit, and likely uphill. They sell snacks and drinks at the venue (no bringing in your own). All purses do get checked. The concession prices are high ($6-8 for a single can of beer or a vodka-seltzer) but consistent/average for concert venues. Seats are reasonably comfortable (old movie-house-style, fold up/down, lightly padded) with a nifty cupholder on the back of the seat in front of you. Restrooms are off premises - yep, you gotta exit the auditorium and walk about 75 feet to a small structure that houses the men's/women's bathrooms. Your wrist band that you should have received upon entry, gets you back into the auditorium (don't exit without it)! Oh and maybe don't forget your ear protection - I brought some decent small ones from home and was glad I did, seeing how close we were. Upon exiting the venue it is a little dark along the various walkways to your car and your phone can light the path. Things are congested for about 15-20 minutes but it all moves slowly/surely because it's not massive like an arena or stadium. I can see why so many big names come here!

This review is specifically for the Colorado Music Festival Symphony Orchestra. I have accompanied…read moremy son to three of these performances this summer, and I couldn't be more impressed. I played in wind ensembles and symphony orchestras as a youngster, but definitely fall in the category of amateur, at best. I do love a good night out at the performing arts, though. The orchestra this summer, led by Maestro Peter Oundjian, is exceptional. I can't remember a symphonic performance that was more intricately perfect in ensemble and intonation than the three I have heard this summer. That each individual performer could be put into a large group and perform as one in such an exceptional way is truly awe-inspiring. I'm going to hear the Dvorak tonight, and simply can't wait! For those who don't know, the Colorado Symphony is now fortuitous in being led by Maestro Oundjian, and under his leadership, I can only imagine that the sky is the limit! That said, there is something very special about driving into the Boulder country/mountains to this little auditorium in Chautauqua Park, with exceptional acoustics and an orchestra composed of some of the best musicians from around the country. What an absolute treat! While the Denver Center for the Performing Arts is a national treasure for us in Colorado, I promise you won't miss the traffic and parking fees of downtown Denver!

From there to Macky is a 10 minute walk in nice weather. There has not been new snow since the cleanup a couple of days ago. We had tix to the College of Music's Holiday Festival and what a joyous musical celebration it was. We had gone a few times decades ago and decided to skip it for a while. But now it's a truly inclusive holiday program with incredible student faculty talent and as well as modern technology for lighting, sound and visual screen displays. In the past it seemed a bland Christmas only music program. We had decent seats in Orchestra Right with a few short people like us and some no-shows in the row in front of us. Just lucky I guess as the place was packed and most of the shows completely sold out. The venue is beautiful and seats about 2000 in classic design and well maintained. No recordings or photos allowed during the program. There were hundreds of student in the instrumental groups as well as vocal choirs. There were two conductors splitting the performances, one a man and for us, the first time a woman conductor though she said this was her 8th year in the program. Both were excellent. The student groups too, had lots of talent, from the Jazz singers and instrumentalists to the various choir groups. The bassoon ensemble did a great performance of a collection of Nutcracker pieces backed up with choreographed videos of nutcracker drawings. There was a beautiful rendition of This Little Light of Mine by members of the University Choir with solos by a terrific tenor. There was also a reading of The Night Before Christmas and a little boy in the row in front of us fell asleep. We had left at the end before he woke up and realized it was not yet Christmas. There was a Klezmer group led by a clarinetist with untalented singers and dancers. There was also a West African Ensemble leading an uplifting piece of music with the University Choir and incredible lighting and special effects. The program ended with a traditional Handel's Messiah with audience participation for the Hallelujah Chorus. I am so glad we went and so proud of CU for having such a more matured and talented Holiday program than we had ever seen before.
