Boulder CO - Fox Theatre

by Micah 'Prof.' Robinson

This is the first of a rare two-night stand.

This part of Boulder is strictly a college town, and the composition of the audience reflects it. As a matter of fact, a University of Colorado football game almost delayed the start of the show. A good number of the ticket holders were at the football game.

Somehow, the generally raucous atmosphere of college sports gave way completely, to a vibe that was just short of church.

The show, itself was 'Burning' as usual and the crowd didn't hesitate to show their appreciation. Beautiful vibes, all around…

By the time we hit the stage, only a small barrier separated the band from the audience. A couple of young women managed to get past the barrier and security. I guess they were tapping into their 'fifteen minutes of fame'. The band kept up the groove and didn't miss a beat as the crowd gave as well as they got, and believe it, they got the best. Only tomorrow will compare.
