Welcome to September. Can you think of a better way to start off a month than with an extra long weekend and a sh*t-load of shows? We can’t, so let’s keep the party going. If you’re looking to dive into some Denver concert escapades, check out any one of the 100 plus shows happening this week. As always, we’ve got a little something for everyone.

Monday, September 4

Recommended: Foreigner w/ Cheap Trick, Jason Bonham’s Led Zepplin Experience @ Red Rocks

The jukebox heroes are coming to Red Rocks. Classic rock legends Foreigner and Cheap Trick will be bringing their hits to Morrison. Foreigner rose to fame in the late ’70s and ’80s and is known for their recognizable hits such as “Cold As Ice,” “Feels Like The First Time” and “I Want To Know What Love Is.” Jason Bonham, the son of Led Zepplin’s late drummer, John Bonham, will be joining the two classic acts in the show. Bonham will be honoring his father’s band and the legacy they left behind. This show should be a great trip down memory lane.

Recommended: Wheelchair Sports Camp w/ The Other Black and Midwife @ Hi-Dive
