Some artists understand how to move a crowd - Nile Rodgers is the textbook example of someone who can. Nile has one of the craziest artist credits in music, with credits on Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky,' Madonna's 'Like a Virgin,' and 'Let's Dance,' by David Bowie, which doesn't even scratch the surface of his thousands of credits.
I was working for Duran Duran that night but figured I might as well snap a few photos of Nile Rodgers (I am so glad I did). I wish I could convey the feeling at Red Rocks that night. Seeing so many different faces singing together is nothing short of a spiritual experience.
Quite a spectacle - one I will not soon forget.
The stage background was a sight to behold, being an American flag with the stripes changed with rainbow colors representing the pride flag. Where the stars would be, they were replaced with the numbers 666 and a ring of weed leaves...
I knew that Jeff Rosenstock was going to have a good opener for his tour, so I decided to show up right as the doors opened. Small Crush was first to take stage...
Nearly every Thursday night, we would park our cars at Comps and have a listening party for which ever rap album we chose to listen to when the clock struck midnight...
We knew we wanted to create a mythological world for both ourselves and our audience to play in while listening...
It does now. I meditate every day just to not feel insane. The practice leaks into everything I do. With writing or recording, I do let thoughts take me for a ride...
I had all these strange pieces of audio, from conversations w/ my friends, snippets of old medical films, warped acoustic noise, and chaotic synthesized recordings, and they all struck me a certain way...
This show was on a Monday as well which I thought was funny that it was one of the most lit crowds I’ve seen this year...
There's a lot of concern about fame and popularity within consumer culture in Superflat, and I believe these are often domains of extreme levels of toxic objectification...
Again, like last year, this is my neurodivergent, smooth-brain Zoomer opinion, so if you don't like my picks, I can't help you (and you don't like good music)...
