Denver Botanic Gardens Concert Soul Stew Revival

Hello, last Sunday we were lucky enough to have tickets to see Soul Stew Revival starring Susan Tedeschia and Derek Trucks at the Denver Botanic Gardens!
Botanic Gardens.
They are husband/wife blues players with an amazing band. This was the first time I've seen them play together. It looks and sounds like they will be a powerhouse blues band for years to come. If they tour anywhere near you, be sure to check them out. Personally, I am looking forward to a CD from this group.
A couple of weeks ago I posted a blog about another concert at the gardens and mentioned the cool Urban Nature art show on display around the different landscapes. This time I wandered around and collected a few more photos of the urban art mingling in the gardens. Urban Nature.
Cheers, Kent Meireis

Denver Botanic Gardens Concert

Hello, last week I managed to sneak in three concerts between three weddings. The first two shows were at Red Rocks. Red Rocks.
First, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss on Saturday evening after a morning wedding. Then Mark Knopfler on Tuesday night. Sorry, I didn't feel like sneaking my camera into the venue - so no pictures.
Finally on Thursday night, we went to see Richard Thompson and Loudon Wainwright at the Denver Botanic Gardens and cameras were welcome! Botanic Gardens.
Not only was it a great show but we were able to bring in our own picnic dinner and beers. Plus, this summer they have a cool Urban Nature art show throughout the different landscapes. I managed to include several in my pictures. Urban Nature.
Ten of the most skilled local, national, and international "Street Artists" created the exhibit using spray paint.
It doesn't get much better than a good concert with interesting art in the best garden in town.
Cheers, Kent
