It’s hard to believe that by the end of this week, we will be nearly half-way through the month of July. We hope summer is treating you well so far as we venture into the second week of Denver concerts in July. As usual, you can expect nothing less than the crazy hustle and bustle from the Denver music scene. For the next seven days, you have the chance to see shows every single night, which is pretty special if you ask us.
