LOL   Sorry--  we try to welcome everyone but sometimes we miss a few.   Great to have you, I'm not from Denver but my Mom lived in Glenwood Springs for much of her childhood.

Used to visit yesfans a few years ago but haven't in ages ... don't even remember my old username. xD

If you are from Denver, you are in a land of great music ... a number of bands I am interested in are from the area. Of course there is the obvious Denver area avant prog like Thinking Plague and Hamster Theatre, but also the Denver Sound / Gothic Americana scene with bands like Munly, Slim Cessna's Auto Club, and Woven hand is quite interesting. Do you see a lot of great live music there?

Welcome. I tend to post a video as my welcome greeting. In this case, I'm opting for a vid by a US band, hope you like 'em.

Nice to meet you. Yes! Denver is just loaded with tons and tons of live music. I haven't fell into the local prog group yet. I would love to take this state by storm with my own prog music. It's hard to find decent and dedicated musicians now-a-day no matter where one lives from my experience. *sigh*

I live in lakewood as well. 6th and Kipling area. We should meet up sometime and have a beer. Maybe load up the internet jukebox with prog music and watch people's reactions. Wink


You ever hang out at the Frontier bar? I used to sing karaoke there right when I moved to the area a year and a half ago.

I live about two blocks south of Frontier Inn, if that's what you are referring to (or even if you aren't)!  Don't hang out there, though.  (Neither a drinker nor a sociable person.  Dead)
