1976 is one of my favorite era's that DSO does - glad they decided to kick things off with an Orpheum 76 show . So dancy, with some jazzy flair. First set highlights were the 1/2 Step, Crazy Fingers, Let It Grow. 2nd set had all I needed! In your face, delicate, pleading, blissy, sorrowful, hopeful, and energetically-tight. Up in the balcony and save for navigating some steps here and there, it was excellent dancing space from the jump. What made this night the most special was getting to share this show with my brother! His first DSO show! He was expecting it to be good from my rave reviews of the past but he confessed he had no idea it would be quite so polished. Getting to hang with him along with some excellent, wonderful, kind people just made it that much more special! What a way to kick things off

Nothing better then to roll over the hills into Boulder for a second night and be greeted by a sweet four song cowboy mini-set to start the show. MAMU>Big River really stoked the place up. Believe it or Not tugging at the strings. Easy Wind was down in the dirt groovy with notes stretching like molasses. The Tangled harmonics were smooth and 13 mins later there was a growl to end the set. Stranger, the mindbender pushing my consciousness to the cliffs of sanity. So many notes. So much space. Then taken on a ride of all colors through an Escher waterfall over the bridge into Rider. For a moment, sound and possibly time stopped in the middle of Dew. Boogied home on another Saturday nite. How can I forget my favorite song: Drums/Space. A trip thru the cosmic rainforest.

Like it was written in my soul.... Still processing these shows but the arc of this one was simply breathtaking. The Dylan-fest was what I wanted and needed

Forgot to mention, I checked the time as the show ended and the rain began, and it was exactly 11:11, if anyone finds that sort of thing interesting.

Red Rocks is the best. Lots of hype for me leading up to this show and it exceeded my expectations. That moment of quiet during Black Peter was the most tuned in I've ever experienced a crowd be. Epic.

All smiles for all those who got the music against the beautiful fountain formation.

One of those perfect nights when I was able to lose myself fully in the music, highlights are a bit tough to recall, it was really lovely the whole way through. Terrapin was special, and it was amazing to hear almost all of Red Rocks get down almost to pin drop quiet during Black Peter. Lisa tore it down with White Rabbit, great to hear that song in that place at the end of the night. The rain held off to within a couple seconds of the final beat of the song, really cool.
