I’ve taped Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers somewhere around 40 times now, so it’s a little hard for me to get psyched about yet another set on tape.  :)  However, I’m sure there will be plenty of fans wanting to get their hands on this.  Every time the Peacemakers play The Gothic, a healthy helping of new faces turns out for the show.  It’s great to see the word about their live acts continually spreading to reach a wider audience.

Last weekend’s Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers show at the Gothic was kicked off in style by The Mother Truckers out of Austin.  They won over the RCPM crowd, often fickle toward opening acts, with a set of (mostly) original country and blues tunes, which culminated in Steve Larson trading licks with Josh Zee on “Love Me Like a Man“.

Angie Stevens has been one of my favorite Denver performers in recent years, a perfect example of top talent in the Denver area.  The addition of The Beautiful Wreck (Carlos Newman, Susan Phelan, and Jon Wirtz) as a backing band only ratchets her live energy to another level.  This set opening for Roger Clyne at the Aggie was one of my favorites this year!
