Once again, DMB lights up Red Rocks. It was hard to imagine how they could top last night's show, but they thoroughly succeeded at raising the bar. After a powerful opening set by the John Butler Trio, the band immediately picked up on the stirring energy level of the audience and ran with it. As the show progressed, the excitement grew steadily amongst everyone present until mid-set when they pulled out one of the most amazing Jimi Things that we can remember. All bets were off. The show seemed to enter another dimension. Rashawn Ross joined in adding his potent trumpet stylings. He and LeRoi punched out some funky licks together. Butch stood out as he scatted beautifully over his solo. We were all so moved after the tune that we had to pause a bit to let it all soak in. It just got better from there. Two more nights yet to come and we're filled with anticipation for what they will bring. See you back here tomorrow.
