Back from the Denver show.... (Score:0)
this is a seriously good band he's touring with. previous outings featured a band content to just play in the background, sometimes a bit too softly and slowly, almost loungy. not anymore. the new drummer is a kick in the arse, and jesse (ever-present determined snarl on his face) is growing into his role. boz is clearly the father figure here, and that's fine-- elsewhere in the band the youthful energy is bringing moz's music to life. with a 5 piece band, the sound is fuller and better than it has ever been.
the setlist, though i didn't snag one, was nearly identical to salt lake, with lucky lisp replacing dear god please help me. the new song is an admirable effort and moz seemed pleased at the crowd's pleased reaction to it.
some funny comments: "we just pedaled all the way from utah..." and, before lucky lisp: "this next song...has its place...though i don't know what that is".
simply wonderful. hopefully those yet to see moz on this tour will do as i did and avoid seeing any setlists before you go-- there's really not a lot of variation from show to show. of course, if you're reading this, that means you've already peeked...oh well, have fun anyways!
Great Show! (Score:2, Informative)
I waited after the show..and was the last one there with my friends.. and we got to talk to Jesse and also to Boz.
I got the setlist for the night... and got it signed and got pictures with the band!
I have some great pictures of Morrissey smiling for me when he was talking to Winnie up in the front row, next to Julia.
Thanks Moz for ANOTHER amazing show.

FANTASTIC show! (Score:1)
Thanks Moz, Boz, Jesse and the rest of the boys for a fantastic show. I would pay good $ for a board recording of this show, too, it was *that* good. Great flourishes at the end of songs, stuff was rocked way up - "Lucky Lisp" and "Life is a Pigsty" were fairly amazing, although I'd rather have heard "Dear God,...." I just love that song. But no faults, just much love.

my review - great show (Score:0)
A few things to mention:
2 shirts into the crowd
No one made it to the stage
There was a large backdrop behind them that had 2 large close-ups of James Dean’s face
The intro for the band was this long playing set of video clips:
An old New York Dolls performance
An old New York Dolls interview where the lead singer was smoking weed
A drag queen wasted singing the 12 days of Christmas
Other weird old clips
Quips he made (as best I can remember them):
“If you think I’m exaggerating….well I am!”
“Anyone here from Aurora? (one of our suburbs)…anyone?...oh really?”
“Be gentle, we just pedaled all the way from Salt Lake…”
He mentioned the altitude bothering him after the first or second song
Lyric changes:
I sure wish I could remember them all because there were a lot
During The Queen is Dead he changed “…you should hear me play piano” to “you know I CAN sing”
To me the band just isn’t the same. I’m one of the old schoolers I guess who thinks the stage belongs to Moz and that new guitarist (Tobias?) should keep his ass away from the front of the stage with his silly solos – he isn’t better than Alain.
Highlights:
Ganglord
Panic
Pigsty to HSIN – awesome!
Downers:
Everyday is like Sunday

Words still fail me after the concert, I'm just speechless. It was such a great show. Last night was one of the best nights in my life (I also finished up finals at CSU before the concert too! so the concert was a great way to top off the day for me).

Great show. One annoying fan. (Score:1)
There was one fan who kept yelling "November Spawned A Monster." over and over and over. I wanted to strangle him.

Im visiting Denver this August for a wedding and will be there for a week (week of the 13th if I can recall). Anyone willing to show a fellow Moz head (wife in tow) the town? I've been looking on-line and Denver seems to be an "outdoorsey" type of place.
We saw that the Rev will be in town during our visit but we've seen him sooooo many times that we are all Reved out!
hope to hear from someone
