Denver has a shindig called the underground music showcase each year, with dozens of bands showing up and giving free concerts on street corners. We went to see Red Baraat, who are kind of bhangra hiphop, and really amazing. The lead singer went off on a significant tangent about curry westerns and the strong competition for the title of best bollywood action composer of the 1970's, before they launched into covering bollywood westerns for a bit. It was a very high energy show, and near the end, the brass section wandered out into the crowd.




I walked by a building full of brightly colored ceramic penguins the other day.


I also got stared down by a fairly fearless kestrel hawk while out wandering in fields.

All of these things seem great.

Is that a Boulder shop window? Boulder has great shop windows.

Sheeyun often speaks rather randomly. The other day as we were returning from Shakespeare Festival he asked if I liked "the Boulder shopping malls." Which kind of threw me because I'm not big in malls and Boulder has shopping streets and blocks but not what I'd think of as malls, exactly. He went on to say he thought Boulder stores were relatively interesting. Ah! I said, Yes, Boulder has a relatively high density of independent local shops. He hadn't been aware of that.

That band sounds amazing!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgmw41CY1Fo being an actual video by someone with actual photography skills, gives a better idea of their brand of activity.

I forgot my glass cutter. I know, feeble excuse...

It should be a fairly fearless falcon or a kinda courageous kestrel, though. ;)

Hah!

I feel the hawk should be hunting the penguins.

given their relative sizes, I put $5 on the penguins.
