DeVotchKa

This is the second year I've seen DeVotchKa, which means 'girl' in Russian, for their New Years Eve concert. They are from Denver, so they always come home for the holidays. The Bluebird Theatre is a great venue, and this year I was second in line, so I scored the same spot where I stood last year. 

I love all the band members, but Jeanie Schroder impresses me the most. She plays the tuba, bass, guitar and flute. What a talent!

I should also mention that I'm impressed with lead vocalist, Nick Urata. He plays the theremin! (You've heard it before in music by Disney, Star Trek, The Beach Boys, and many, many other examples.)

It's Not A Myth

The last Yelp Elite Event for 2019 was at Mythology Distillery. Founder Scott Yeates spent time talking to individual tables as well as to the group. It was cool to hear about his vision and how he plans to expand his market presence. He even served us drinks! 

Be sure to support this local business, and partake of the free distillery tour. Discover your spirit animal. Mine is rum!
