Yesterday was the 15th Annual Westword Music Showcase and one of the best turnouts I've seen at this Denver event. A few days ago I posted a Special Edition Snobcast where I wrote an extensive preview about the bands I felt were highlights this year. This wasn't meant to diminish any of the other bands playing, it's just that in most cases I had already seen many of the other bands worth seeing. So now that the showcase is over and done with I'm sure you're wondering to yourself (or maybe even out-loud), "Hey Father Guido! [...]

The Golden Triangle sounds like a mystic land of enigma from which no one returns, but it's actually the area of Denver that the 15th annual Westword Music Showcase will overrun Saturday with 85+ ace bands, both local and national. On Saturday, come peruse ten stages of goodness with me; we'll see local bands worth vigorously loving like Everything Absent or Distorted , Young Coyotes and Houses , as well as influential Denver punk pioneers [...]

The jury's out on whether this was a skit or half-skit half-real. In both cases, Eminem is the dick. If it was a skit, then the world know nows that Eminem likes balls on his face, which is why he is homophobic. If it wasn't a skit, he deserved every second of it and more.

So this has been one of the busiest weekends in recent memory 'round these parts, leaving me exhausted, depleted, physically sore. I'm packing up the house I've lived in for three years, heading for hopefully greener pastures closer to downtown and the lovely neighborhood where I work.
