Al Green at Red Rocks Amphitheater Wed • July 12 • 7PM

AL GREEN was the first great soul singer of the ’70s and arguably the last great Southern soul singer. With his seductive singles for Hi Records in the early ’70s, Green bridged the gap between deep soul and smooth Philadelphia soul. He incorporated elements of gospel, interjecting his performances with wild moans and wails, but his records were stylish, boasting immaculate productions that rolled along with a tight beat, sexy backing vocals, and lush strings. The distinctive Hi Records sound that the vocalist and producer Willie Mitchell developed made Al Green the most popular and influential soul singer of the early ’70s, influencing not only his contemporaries, but also veterans like Marvin Gaye. Green was at the peak of his popularity when he suddenly decided to join the ministry in the mid-’70s. At first, he continued to record secular material, but by the ’80s, he was concentrating solely on gospel. During the late ’80s and ’90s, he occasionally returned to R&B, but he remained primarily a religious performer for the rest of his career. Nevertheless, Green’s classic early- ’70s recordings retained their power and influence throughout the decades, setting the standard for smooth soul. Al Green was inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.

Billy Idol at Budweiser Events Center Sat • Sep 2 • 7:30PM

Rock legend, Billy Idol will make take his live show back on the road coming to Colorado once again this time at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland. Performing a career spanning set, including a myriad of hits and new music from his latest EPs, Idol will be joined by his longtime band featuring his collaborator and lead guitarist of over forty years, Steve Stevens.

Last year, Idol released his latest project The Cage EP via Dark Horse Records. The new music follows Idol’s 2021 The Roadside EP, which received praise from fans and critics alike. As on The Roadside EP, Idol once again joins forces in the studio with Stevens.

For 46 years, Billy Idol has been one of the faces and voices of rock’n’roll, with an artistic resume to match the brilliant light of the image. First as the camera-ready front man for Generation X, between 1977 and 1981 Idol emerged with three albums that made positivity, emotional depth and high pop synonymous with punk rock. In 1982 Idol embarked on a remarkable transatlantic/trans-genre solo career that integrated clubland throb, wide-screen depth and drama, rockabilly desperation, the bold and simple lines of punk and rock’n’roll decadence. – Prelude Press

The All-American Rejects at Fillmore Auditorium Fri • Sep 22 • 6PM

Produced by Live Nation, the tour features New Found Glory as its main openers, with Motion City Soundtrack, the Starting Line and the Get Up Kids also playing select dates.

“We’ve been trying to get out on the road in a proper way for the last few years. We finally realized after playing When We Were Young that the world was ready to pull out of their ‘guilty pleasure chest’ and celebrate the soundtrack of their youth,” the band said in a statement. “When New Found Glory, the Starting Line, Motion City Soundtrack and the Get Up Kids signed on, the feeling was ‘This is a celebration of summers gone by.’ It’s time to embrace the cumulative joy of growing up. First we got you to ‘Swing Swing,’ then we became your ‘Dirty Little Secret,’ and you thought ‘It Would End Tonight’ so we could ‘Move Along,’ then we ‘Gave You Hell’ for denying the fact that we’re the band you listened to your entire lives, whether you liked it or not.” – Variety

After sitting at the top of the music industry for 21 years, the band suffered a devastating loss in 1991 when superstar frontman Freddy Mercury passed away after a long battle with AIDS.

Fans weren’t sure how the band would continue without Mercury on lead vocals. However, after a 14-year hiatus, the band returned to touring in 2005 as Queen + Paul Rodgers for their ‘Return of The Champions’ and ‘Rock The Cosmos’ tours between 2005 and 2011.

We go out there every night to win. ”Completing the team is bassist BARRY DUNAWAY, drummer GARY MOFFATT and keyboardist/vocalist BOBBY CAPPS.

Yacht Rock Revue at Mission Ballroom • Sep 9 • 8PM

What started as an ironic performance of soft rock hits at a local club gig turned into a weekly residence that has now resulted in headlining their own shows across the country!

This top-notch group of musicians has already rocked onstage with John Oates, Eddie Money (RIP), and both versions of the band Player. They’ve trademarked the term “yacht rock,” both metaphorically and literally (U.S. Registration Number 3834195). From humble beginnings in a basement, touring in partnership with Live Nation and Sirius XM, they now headline sold-out shows across the country, from Webster Hall in New York to the Wiltern in L.A. While rising from bars to amphitheaters, they’ve ticked every box on the Rock Star Accomplishments bingo card. Except for one: Writing and singing their own songs.

Yacht Rock Revue’s first original record is ten songs inspired by the smoooooth sounds of the Seventies and Eighties. They’ve brazenly titled it Hot Dads In Tight Jeans – forgive them for bragging, but that’s what they are – and it returns Yacht Rock Revue to their roots in original music. — https://www.yachtrockrevue.com

They will bring their sultry sounds and tight jeans to Mission Ballroom on September 9th, 2023.

The Australian Pink Floyd Show at Mission Ballroom Tue • Aug 08 • 8PM

Having sold over three million tickets in concerts that have taken place in 36 countries, The Australian Pink Floyd Show is rightfully hailed as one of the most in demand touring entities currently operating.

Whilst the Daily Telegraph rightly described them as being at the top of the tribute band tree, the journey has been a long one and began in 1988 in Adelaide. Lee Smith, a local guitarist obsessed with Pink Floyd, and needing to augment his band, placed an ad in Allans Music store. It read: Vocalist and Keyboardist required for band. Professional attitude expected. We only play Pink Floyd.

Steve Mac and Jason Sawford each saw the ad and soon the now five-piece band commenced regular weekly practice. Whilst learning and practicing the songs they constantly referred to Lee’s extensive collection of Pink Floyd albums and bootleg recordings. They also started to create the sounds necessary to perform Pink Floyd correctly, and this became, and still is, one of the most important aspects of the band. The first live show was performed to a select group of family and friends including Richard Guest and Greg ‘Bear’ Sutton, both of whom would serve time in the bands road crew.
