T
he best part of putting together Summer Scene for you, our readers, is that we get to preview all the amazing things going on in Colorado between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and this year’s offerings are truly amazing. If you spend one weekend bored this summer, it’s nobody’s fault but your own. Every corner of our beautiful sate is busting with fun activities over the next three months. There are countless concerts and music festivals on the Front Range and all across the state from Durango to Greeley to Steamboat to Pueblo. There are county fairs with pig races and state fairs with pie-eating contests and rides that you don’t want to take after being in a pie-eating contest. There are whitewater rodeos and rodeos where crazy people ride large animals that
others get flipped and endlessly recirced in some giant hole. And when you are done with all those activities, or drinking, why not kick back at one of our state’s film festivals or maybe even spend a weekend in the mountains eating amazing food and drinking fine wine at one of the many food and wine events taking place this summer in places like Aspen, Vail and telluride. The bottom line is there is something for everyone to enjoy in the coming months whether you are a World War II aviation fanatic, a bluegrass fan or a marathoner. Keep our Summer Scene sitting on that coffee table from now till Labor Day and you’ll never again be at a loss for what to do next. Have fun.
Summer fun don’t much like the idea of being ridden. There are art festivals, art exhibits, art studio tours and even an art rodeo. Okay, we made that last one up but the point is you can fill your summer with the arts of every kind if you so desire. If sports are your thing there are ample opportunities for 3Ks, 5k’s, 10K’s or more Ks than any sane person should desire to run. There are numerous opportunities to try your hand at competitive whitewater sports or to just drink while watching

8 p.m., Wednesday, June 25, Chautauqua Auditorium
7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 11, Denver Botanic Gardens
The barn-like auditorium at Chautauqua has a down-home style that gives the venue a more intimate feel than the seating capacity would belie — and that’s great when the music you’re turned to is Marc Cohn, seated at his gleaming ivories or strumming at his guitar while chipping into your cynic heart with one soulful ballad after another. It’s tough to not feel the tug of hope and trepidation in “Ellis Island,” and not be charmed out of your socks by “Listening to Levon.” Last time he graced this stage, he played until the neighborhood curfew shut him down. We’ll hope for a similar fondness for the Boulder audience this summer. Match that with the sultry vocals of Mavis Staples and you’re sure to be in for an evening of vocal decadence.

B.B. King has stacked up decades as the King of the Blues, a reputation cemented in a guitar technique inspired in the Mississippi Delta where he was born, and honed in Memphis. His signature style is among the most iconic. The thrill is not yet gone for this rhythm and blues master, who continues to tour. There’s a chance to check him out this summer at Denver’s Botanic Gardens. So pull up your best picnic blanket and get ready to enjoy an American treasure. Marc and Mavis pair up

Seattle in the ’90s was best-known for the sludgy, sonic-nihilism of Nirvana and its imitators. But swept up in the band-signing craze that followed the success of Nevermind, was a goofy band that incorporated elements of country and power-pop for a powerful cocktail: The Presidents of the United States of America. The band was known for odd-ball hits like “Lump,” and “Peaches,” as well as for its minimalist twostring guitars, but its albums were packed full of pop-rock gems with riffs and hooks for days, all covered up in lyrics about puffy shoes, bugs that drive convertibles and what happens when you arouse the ire of the tiki gods. There was no band more underappreciated in the Seattle scene than PUSA, and the chance to see one of their action and singalong chorus-packed shows The dudes in the Oval Office: PUSA is one that Colorado should treasure.

Widespread Panic, 7 p.m., June 27, 28 and 29, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Morrison Widespread Panic — aka John Bell, Dave Schools, Todd Nance, John “Jojo” Hermann, Domingo “Sunny” Ortiz and Jimmy Herring — is simply one of the hottest touring acts in America. How hot? The band holds the record for sold-out shows at Red Rocks having left no seat unfilled 42 times. The moral of this story is 42 is about to become 45, so if you don’t want to miss one of the highlights of summer 2014, you better buy that ticket now. If you do manage to get in on one of these dates, which isn’t easy because the vast majority of the band’s fans will be attending all three nights, count yourself lucky and sit back and enjoy. If you miss out in Denver, you can always fly to Vegas where the band’s next threeday gig is going down.

8 p.m., May 29, Oriental Theater, Denver Since 1978, two-time Grammy winner Rickie Lee Jones has been mesmerizing audiences with her one-of-a-kind voice and confessional songwriting that is fearless. It’s no wonder Rolling Stone once put her on its cover twice in less than two years. Jones’ music is her own blend of jazz, rock and folk and her connection to her audiences leaves everyone feeling like they just shared an evening in someone’s living room. There will be plenty of Jones’ classic hits on display but also a fair amount of new material as she plans on releasing a new album by the end of 2014.

Colorado Shakespeare Festival opens June 6.
Colorado Shakespeare Festival, June 6 – Aug. 10 Need a little classic wit and wisdom in your summer? A dose of history? A story of a shipwreck and a sprite? OK, maybe that last one was too specific. Whatever your summertime dreams, you’re sure to find an evening of satisfying entertainment with the Colorado Shakespeare Festival, which performs as the Bard intended — in an open-air stage — all summer long. The Tempest — A duke who saw his position usurped uses a storm and a shipwreck to bring his enemies to him on the island where he and his daughter have spent 20 years in exile. One there, in true Shakespearean form, love stories and a little supernatural intrusion changes the course of the day. Directed by Geoffrey Kent of the 2013 Midsummer Night’s Dream and set in Britain in the 1800s. June 6 to Aug. 10. The Merry Wives of Windsor — Falstaff, the bumbling knight and one of the most beloved of Shakespeare’s generous array of comedic characters (also of the Henry histories), pursues the attentions of two married English ladies. June 27 to Aug. 9. I Hate Hamlet — by Paul Rudnick. A rising Hollywood star rebounds from the cancellation of his television series to play Hamlet in New York’s Shakespeare in the Park — despite hating Hamlet. In karmic repayment, he’s haunted by the ghost of legendary Hamlet actor John Barrymore.The New York Times described I Hate Hamlet as “unapologetically silly and at time hilarious.” Should be fun. June 12 to Aug. 9. Henry IV Part I — Henry IV, who took the throne after the murder of Richard II, faces rebellion and insurgency while dealing with a son, Prince Hal, who would rather consort with a tavern mistress and a dissolute knight (yet another appearance of Falstaff). The CSF’s most traditional production this year. July 17 to Aug. 10. Henry IV Part II — For the conclusion of Prince Hal’s journey to the throne, Shakespeare as he likely would have seen it: natural lighting, minimal costumes, live music and cue scripts. Recommended viewing is to catch Part 1 on in matinee followed by break for dinner and an evening performance of Part II. July 27 to Aug. 3. For a complete schedule and to purchase tickets, visit www.coloradoshakes.org, call 303-492-8008 or visit the CU Presents Box Office at University Club, 972 Broadway.
Kinetics — Great fun to be had as teams try to make it across water, land and mud on their zany hand-built crafts that tend to blow up, fall apart and sink. 1 p.m. Union Reservoir, 0461 WCR 26, Longmont, 720-837-1577. Summer Solstice Celebration & Bike Ride — Bikers of all ages meet at City Park or Big Dry Creek for an easy ride along Big Dry Creek trail. This year is Hawaiian-themed. 6 p.m. Westfield Village Park, 115th & Sheridan Blvd., Westminster. 303-658-2400. Annual Prospect Artists Studio Tour — Visit each artist’s studio in this architecturally unique community. Look for green studio tour signs in front of studio locations.12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Prospect Artists Association, Longmont, 720-340-4020. Through June 22.

Triple Crown Hermit Crab Races, June 7, West End Tavern, Boulder So this is it. We are down to the last leg of the Triple Crown, the Belmont Stakes. The Kentucky Derby and Preakness are only a memory now, but that doesn’t mean you can’t redeem yourself with a crabracing victory in tribute to the Belmont. In honor of this final horse race, our friends at the West End Tavern will be serving up Mint Juleps and Belmont Breeze Cocktails, all of which can be consumed while watching the ever stimulating, never-a-dullmoment crab races, which will kick off one hour before post time of the real Belmont Stakes. If you prefer horses to crabs, you can watch the TV at the West End but we recomment the crabs, far less predictable and no chance of having to shoot one of the little buggers after the race.

The Boulder County Bombers
Boulder County Bombers Roller Derby Saturday, June 28 and Saturday, August 30
The chance to train at high altitudes has made Colorado a major destination for competitive athletes, even when the sports are a little less mainstream. In addition to the Rockies, the Broncos, the Nuggets and a long lists of Olympians, Colorado is also home to some of the top roller derby teams in the world, with two teams from Denver ranking in the top 10, and the Boulder County Bombers sitting at the impressive rank of 49th in the world, despite the team being only a few years old. The sheer number of players required makes roller derby a true spectacle and an organizational nightmare. Boulder County will only have two at-home bouts this summer, Saturday, June 28 against The Tampa Bay Derby Darlins and Saturday, August 30 against Colorado’s own 10th Mountain Roller Dolls.

Animals. Rides. Weird fried food. Nothing says ’Merrica like a county fair. And nothing says it even louder than a state fair. The Colorado State Fair has been going since 1872 and shows no signs of slowing down or transitioning to any sort of urban or metro themes. It’s still like Tim McGraw said: “country boys and girls getting down on the farm.” There will be livestock shows, a rodeo and the best in hat-wearing, guitar-plucking, twang-singing, truck-driving, country music. Just head south on I-25 until you see clouds of cotton candy and detect the scent of Snickers bars being thrown in a deep fryer.
