Like a good ghost story or a reality show in eternal reruns, Tiffany Fitzgerald’s “Ghost Adventures host Zak Bagans comes to Denver, meets Phil Goodstein, acts like a child” lives on, and on. And the comments keep coming…
In the midst of these 100 degree days, it’s easy to forget how much summer rules. We spend all of this time talking — or worse, complaining to total strangers in line at a coffee shop, on the bus, at the gas station — about how hot it is (as…
Like the PrideFest parades and celebrations of yore, Denver’s 2012 edition left me sunburned, emotionally confused, laughing and borderline crying. I was laughing because, in my hour or so of parade watching, I saw at least ten rainbow streamer-covered flatbed trucks jammed with tiny underwear-clad dudes shaking their dicks as Kelly Clarkson,…
Karen Scharer, whose work is currently showing at Space Gallery, took some time to explain the finer aspects of abstract art to Tiffany Fitzgerald last week. But some readers don’t appreciate her explanation — or her art, particularly “February Wetlands,” shown above…
Tarot is one of the oldest forms of “duckering,” or fortune-telling. There’s a formulaic method to throwing tarot — numerous spreads, interpretations, symbols — but the premise remains the same. And should you enter into the mystical realm of tarot cards, you are bound to find out a thing or…
Juneteenth. PrideFest. Denver Comic Con. The metro area is full of festivities this weekend. Some are looking to the future, some to the past — like the fourth annual 1940s WWII Era Ball at the Boulder Airport…
As summer arrives, fashion takes a bold leap into the future. Fix your eyes on this week’s street-style contenders, who display style as sharp as a knife and as smooth as a llama…
Like everything going green on St. Paddy’s Day or ghoulish on Halloween, over the next three days our fair city will be going gay for PrideFest. And Denver’s Art District on Santa Fe is no exception to this rule: For the third year running, this stretch will be transformed into…
Britt Chester has wheels turning all around town with “Guess where I’m biking.” This town is full of bike enthusiasts who ride both for fun and health — which makes the latest spot in the series particularly appropriate…
When I was younger, I thought bisexuality was a party trick. I thought it was something that teenage girls used to get attention. Since I’ve stopped being a teenage girl, I’ve learned that there are more than just the three oversimplified dimensions — gay, straight and bi — of sexuality…
Denver has lots of wonderful galleries that deserve to be seen — and then, as Tiffany Fitzgerald revealed in her list of “Five hidden Denver art galleries,” there are great spaces hiding in plain sight — in the back of bigger galleries. The Back Room at Zip 37, for example…
With “Fight for Your Right to Pride” as the official theme of Denver’s PrideFest 2012, the GLBTQ community is taking off its gloves — led by four grand marshals who are also happen to be “out” members of the Colorado Legislature: Senators Pat Steadman and Lucia Guzman, and Representatives Mark…
Some things — such as the growing trend of fried butter on a stick — are surreal in a terrible way, while others can be surreal in a fantastic way. Watching movies outdoors definitely qualifies in the latter category, but most drive-in movie theaters have gone the way of the…
Film on the Rocks, which started rolling out its 2012 season last Monday night with Office Space, is back tonight with its next film, Iron Man, with music by The McRae and Force Publique, all at the stunning Red Rocks Amphitheatre. But some readers say they’re underwhelmed by this year’s…
You have one more chance to see Lisa Suarez’s I’ll Remember for You, which ends a short run at Su Teatro tonight. The play tells the story of Suarez’s relationship with her mother, who suffers from Alzeheimer’s. “There’s this bond and this sacrifice and this emotion,” says Su Teatro executive…
In honor of the Classic Film Series dedicated to Wes Anderson that started at the Mayan this week, Josiah Hesse served up the top five Wes Anderson one-liners. “Don’t worry about me, I’m on mescaline” from The Royal Tenenbaums made the cut — but isn’t included in the Mayan series…
Several times now, Lisa Suarez’s mother has come to see her daughter perform in I’ll Remember for You, the play about their relationship and Alzheimer’s that opens at Su Teatro tonight. She has sung along with the actresses, watched as little pieces of her life are reconstructed and recreated onstage,…
The news that Michael Trundle is moving Lipgloss from La Rumba to Beauty Bar — after more than eight years — had Bree Davies remembering 2004, and thinking about Denver’s three degrees of separation. And she wasn’t the only one:…
Last weekend was filled with fun. And while many people feasted upon turkey legs at the People’s Fair or gazed upon the Denver Chalk Art Festival on Larimer, others checked out the First Friday Art Walk on Santa Fe Drive or the Mutants show at the hi-dive on Saturday. Take…
Marc Wilhelm has not seen Indie Game: The Movie yet, but he’s already a fan. At 7 p.m. today, when the film comes to the Denver Film Center for a special presentation, he and his family will watch it for the first time — and maybe, just maybe, the documentary…
When Bob Dylan picked up his Medal of Freedom last week, he was wearing a Rockmount Ranch Wear shirt. Steve Weil, president of the Denver-based company, recognized the model — and says Dylan is a long-time fan of the snap-button shirts. But while Dylan’s fashion sense may be above reproach,…
Summer in Colorado is as refreshing as that first sip of cold beer after you’ve weeded the garden, as restorative as an afternoon in one of Denver’s new beer gardens, as full of fascinating facts as a tour of one of the state’s breweries, whether a behemoth like Coors or…
