Denver Does Denver was put on by illiterate magazine- I'd just like to give a shout out to the organizer Yuzo Nieto, music editor at that time.
Comments (0) Best All-Local Covers Show - 2010
Denver Does Denver
Many bands do shows where they cover famous acts. But Denver Does Denver featured local bands covering the songs of other local bands. Across two venues and over several hours, you could hear Mike Marchant covering "Sleepy Shoes," by the Pseudo Dates, Pictureplane covering "Punk Bitch," by 3OH!3, Married in Berdichev covering Milton Melvin Croissant III and vice versa, and Safe Boating Is No Accident covering Pictureplane. Were the performances note for note? No, but that wasn't the point. Instead, the goal was to have peers of each band give new interpretations to great songs in a display of true community spirit.

Thought I'd mention that Lance Stack (The Flat Response) recorded this event. You can listen here: http://www.theflatresponse.com...
