Roger Waters Coming to the Pepsi Center

If you are a rock music fan, then you obviously have at least an appreciation for Pink Floyd. They were legends in rock music and paved the way for many other artists - even artists of other genres - of today. Roger Waters was the brainchild behind Pink Floyd. He wrote the majority of their music for their highly popular albums like "The Wall". And now he's back on a solo tour - and coming to the Pepsi Center next Monday! He's an awesome performer - this tour has gotten great reviews from critics and is sure to impress when it comes to Denver. If you missed his tour last year, he toured with his own rendition of "The Wall", complete with a HUGE moving stage. Check it out below, and get some Roger Waters tickets so you can check out his show next week too!

Gabriel Iglesias Tickets

So there's not a ton going on on the music scene this week - but there IS something pretty awesome that kind of falls in the same category. Funny man Gabriel Iglesias is hosting THREE stand up comedy events at the Paramount Theater this week - and I can't WAIT to go check him out. He calls himself the "Fluffy Guy" - and he is hilarious. From his stories to his jokes to his side effects and voices, I just can't get enough. He's hil.ar.i.ous. Don't believe me? Check out the video below. You won't be able to get enough - good thing he's got those three shows this week in Colorado. There's gotta be one that fits your schedule! He's performing on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Go get your Gabriel Iglesias tickets and laugh your booty off this weekend!

Tom Petty tickets for a double header this week

Have you heard the news concert fans? Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are taking the stage at the 1stBank Center this Wednesday AND Thursday. It's a double header show - and while I'm only going to ONE of the shows, I'm sure there are many people hitting up both shows. He's just that good. Not sure that you're up for a concert mid-week? Well, if you're a fan of songs like "I Won't Back Down", "American Girl" and "Free Fallin", then you definitely shouldn't even be QUESTIONING why you need to be at this show. Or one of these shows - sorry. And if you're just sitting on the fence about checking out your own Tom Petty Tickets, then let me show you some awesome clips of his music to do a little convincing...

The Black Keys Tickets

Did you know that the Black Keys are coming to town later this month? They'll be at the 1stBank Center for two back to back shows on April 30th and May 1st. Which means: You need to get some 1stBank Center tickets for one of these two shows on the Black Keys schedule! Not sure who the Black Keys are or why you'd love to see them in concert? Let me tell you. The Black Keys are a rock band from Akron, Ohio and is made up of two members: Dan Auerbach on guitar and vocals and patrick Carney on drums. They have a ton of awesome songs that you've probably heard but never knew who sang, like "Tighten Up", "Strange Times" and "I Got Mine". Need a refresher? Video help is below. And after watching, you know you're gonna have to get your hands on some Black Keys tickets, too! I am going to the Tuesday show, and I.Can't.Wait. See you there!

Summer Colorado Concerts: Eric Church

There's a lot of things that I love about summertime in Colorado: the sunshine, going to the beach, hanging out by the pool...there's always something going on. But one of the BEST things about summertime in Colorado is the concerts. And one step up from just summer concerts is summer RED ROCKS concerts. One of my faves that I have seats for this summer? Eric Church. Lovelovelove him. My personal favorite songs that I can't wait to hear live and in person:

  • Hell on the Heart
  • Homeboy
  • Drink in my Hand
This - like most Red Rocks concerts - are not ones to miss. And this girl, for one, can't wait to start the summer Colorado concerts off with a little May concert and Eric Church tickets!

Colorado Concert Insider: I Love the Ting Tings

Finally: Spring in Colorado. Which means it's almost summertime in Colorado. Which means it's time for lots and lots of fabulous concerts to start populating each and every week on the Colorado concerts calendar. Now this week, we have something MUCHO exciting to kick off this new season in both weather and music. The Ting Tings take the stage Saturday night at the Ogden. Obvi I am going because I LOVELOVELOVE The Ting Tings. But also this weekend is a musical dance event called the Caffiene Music Festival at the 1stBank Center. it's supposed to be super amazing. They're running fifty artists on five stages - I'd say it's gonna be an event to rememebr. If I wasn't already going to see the Ting Tings, there's no way I'd miss out. Ahhh so happy that there are FINALLY some amazing music events going on around Denver!

Venue Time: The Ogden Theater

The Ogden Theater is another one of my favorite local hot spots for small concerts. It's probably the perfect location for an intimate show. Tons of great bands get booked there. And it's got a lot of history, which you should appreciate as a Coloradan. It's a little bit loud and the air circulation isn't alwasy as great on the floor as the balcony - which is why I generally opt for seats that are a little higher up. Another bonus of the upstairs: you have a little shelf to rest your purse. Or coat, Or whatever your little heart desires. Love it.
