Colorado Playlist S10 EP19

Monday (early afternoon) — sometimes it takes more hours to recover from a long hot weekend of live music than I care for LOL.  It happens.  Saturday I spent the day in the sun with Mama Lenny & the Remedy, Grant Farm, and Justin Roth as part of the Poudre River Fest in Fort Collins.  Yesterday my recover was broken up by a sound gig in Lyons.  All in all a nice weekend of music.

In the Monday Morning Music Meeting this week I have three tracks from Bonnie & the Clydes, Morning Bear, and Wolf Poets .. unfortunately, SIR (formerly Sarah & the Meanies) did not have an embed file available to share with you.

And let me know if you’re paying attention here … I know you didn’t vote last week (I can “see” you LOL).

Enjoy.

MONDAY MORNING MUSIC MEETING

What you’ll find below are new songs on the show this week … listen to them again (or for the first time) and let me know which ones you think I should keep in the Colorado Playlist.

I conceived of this idea a way for you to discover some of the new music I played on the show, and to give you the chance to let me know which of the tracks you like, and think I should keep in rotation.  I get a lot of feedback from fans about what’s liked .. and what isn’t.

NOTE:  In order to be included in the MMMM poll, the band/artist must have an embeddable file available on SoundCloud, BandCamp (my favorite), Reverbnation or YouTube.

Colorado Playlist – S10 EP18 2016

It’s Memorial Day.  If you can’t make it to a cemetery or event honoring our lost in battle, please take a moment to reflect on our service men and women.  #VietnamEraVet  Long live our lost fathers, sons and brothers and sisters. RIP.

I got to stage manage this weekend at the Denver Day of Rock and hang out with some very good friends in music and sound, stage and lighting production … particularly the crews from Mighty Fine Productions (Denver) and Nomad Productions (Austin/Denver).

Happy to see Sarah SlatonDustin Morris and Maxwell Hughes, aka Edison pop into my venue, where Dearling and Foxfield Four started things off … also got to meet Kendall B from KS107.5 and Jim Benemann from CBS4 News – two of our guest emcees for the day.

Very honored to have been able to debut new singles this week from the Motet and OneRepublic .. thanks to Dave Watts and the Motet promotion team for advancing the new album Totem due out July 18th.  Once again, the Motet shows why they are a national caliber Colorado funk band with booty shakin’ songs that will make boomers remember the bump, and their kids something very old school to balance out the nu-skool from whence it came.  “Damn!” would have been a dance-hall smash in 1978-1980 .. and it damn sure might be in 2016.

Make sure you vote in this week’s Monday Morning Music Meeting.

GOATZ! News and Shows

Chris K FOCOMX8 2cI put up a rare rehearsal recording this weekend for the song “Sweet Inspiration” that I wrote for my wife before she passed away.  Our very good friend Chris Kennison (pedal steel) is an original “Goat” and played our wedding.  This was the first rehearsal of the new season with him back in the lineup.  Having him back for our summer shows means a lot to me – it’s the first time he and Chris Jackowski (guitar and vocals) and I will perform without our beloved Miss Pattie in the 13 years we’ve played music together.

Colorado Playlist S10 EP17 2016

I’ve been waiting for a nice weekend so I could get some needed yard work done, and maybe find time to get on my bike for a nice ride … well, some yard work got done – and so too did my back 😦

Oh well, LOL — tomorrow is a new day, and between my chiropractor and my physical therapist, I’ll be good as new in a day or two. 😉 (wishful thinking is a good motivator)

There’s some killer new tunes in this week’s Monday Morning Music Meeting (MMMM) from Grant Farm, the 14ers, Gregory Alan Isakov with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, and from Bonnie & the Clydes.
