Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Holy hip-hop nirvana! Why can't it be SIA week all year around? This week is straight bananas. So get this, as if there weren't already too many crazy good shows to choose from, here's one more: Tomorrow night at Casselman's, we're hearing that the one and only Raekwon is set to throwdown. Es-Nine of Prime Element is opening up, and Skull Candy and 686 are throwing the party, which is being touted as "Lights Out." Maybe you've seen the poster. If not, page down.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
