Hey Adam, and everyone else on the forum:
I thought I’d start a new thread to introduce myself and hopefully stimulate some conversation on your new forum.
I’m moving to Manitou Springs by the end of this year & the most important aspect of my new life in Manitou Springs is finding out where the best places are to see live music.
Can you give me an overview of where the best live music venues are in the Colorado Springs/Manitou Springs area?
As far as my musical tastes go, I listen to pretty much every genre. However, if you had to nail down my listening preferences at this period in time you’d find me listening to a lot of raunchy blue-based rock like The Faces, the Mick Taylor period of the Rolling Stones, and Black Crowes. When I burn out on slinky guitar licks and overdriven amps, I’ve been turning my ear onto roots music & Telecaster twangin’ old school country tunes. That may not be the hippest stuff to some folks, but after 20 plus years of hanging out in the hard rock and metal scene, it was time to listen to music not cranked to “11."
With that tidbit of information, hopefully I’ve given you all enough info to start a conversation on this forum.
I also hope to get to know some locals who share a passion for music, so that after I get the contents of my U-haul unloaded into my new place in Manitou Springs, I will already have met some folks on this forum with whom I can buy a beer and share watching some great live music.
Cheers.
