Summer Scene
illing a calendar with all the great things to do in a Colorado summer is a pretty rewarding task. After all, how else would BW staffers get to find out about all the fantastic events, concerts and festivals going on this year? And we’re not just talking about the things happening locally. In this calendar, we went out and found just about every interesting thing going on between Memorial Day and Labor Day in every nook and cranny of the Centennial State. The wealth of opportunities for fun over
the next few months borders on obscene. There are more music festivals in more beautiful places than you can imagine — from the Western Slope to Pagosa Springs to Greeley to Steamboat. And that doesn’t count the hundreds of great concerts that will be happening this summer right here on the Front Range. But music is just one tiny part of this
year’s fun. There are countless arts and crafts shows, automobile and aviation exhibits, museums and natural attractions. So pack up that cooler, tell the neighbor to watch your dog, hire a kid with a lawnmower, tell your boss you’re sick and hit the road. All we’re saying is that If you’re bored this summer, it’s definitely your own fault. We do hope you enjoy our lists of things to do and our suggestions as much as we enjoyed putting them together for you.

Pigpen Theatre Co. — with Goodnight, Texas. 8 p.m. Larimer Lounge, 2721 Larimer St., Denver, 303-291-1007.
The raw emotional vocals of scruffy Irishman Damien Rice will fill the iconic formations of Red Rocks on August 10. Rice’s songs like “Volcano” and “The Blower’s Daughter” are rich with loss and longing. A gap of seven years stretched between his last two albums, Rice specialize in songs about life, love and struggle, and he takes time to let his music steep. Rice’s ballads will pair nicely followed by Iron & Wine’s folk sound. Sam Beam — the man who is Iron & Wine — is another hauntingly intense singer. Both artists spotlight powerful vocals, piano and guitar, among a variety of other instruments.

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts will make you believe that rock ‘n’ roll can never die. One of the band’s biggest hits “I Love Rock ‘N’ Roll” reigns as a rock classic. Their mix of rock, glam, punk and metal were deemed worthy of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year.

The Tour de Fat, New Belgium’s celebration of beer and bicycles, is returning to the Front Range, in Fort Collins on Sept. 5 and Denver on Sept. 12. A costumed bike parade begins every festival, where hundreds of excited bikers take to the streets. There’s also a car-for-bike campaign, where car keys are relinquished in order to commit to a bike-only commute. The campaign is a big deal for New Belgium — and the former car owner, to be sure — as one brave person promises to give up their car for a year and commute only by bike. New Belgium, in turn, pays for the new bicycle. If that’s not enough for you, then just go for the beer.
