You might get a little sense of deja vu from this week’s top flier — we’ve featured the previous two Houses EP release fliers, both of which sport similar designs, in past flier of the week slots. But what can we say? These fliers are just beautiful examples of design…
As reported last week, Jay-Z brings his BP3 tour to the Pepsi Center on Monday, March 22. Reserved tickets range from $39.50 to $99.50 and go on sale Saturday, November 14 at 10 a.m. On Monday, March 8, Bon Jovi also hits Pepsi Center as part of the band’s Circle…

This week’s flier breaks most of the rules of good design — there are too many fonts, it’s busy and, arguably, cluttered, the color palette is all over the map — but that just goes to show that sometimes, the rules are meant to be broken. Because even though this…
Fabolous, Twista and Mario, who have each recently dropped new albums, are among the noted hip-hop and R&B talent slated to appear at KS 107.5’s Jingle Jam Friday, December 18 at the Fillmore Auditorium.

Bad news for those hoping to catch Voodoo Glow Skulls tonight at Moe’s Original Bar B Que: We just heard that the band has had to cancel due to problems the singer is having with his voice. No word yet on when/if the Glow Skulls will make-up the date. In…
Looks like the inclement weather we’ve been experiencing for the last 72-hours has forced yet another show to be postponed. As such, Train and Uncle Kracker fans expecting to see those two acts at the Ogden Theatre tonight don’t have much to, uh, smile about right now. Evidently the roadways…
We just go word from Live Nation that Goodie Mob’s show originally scheduled for tonight at the Gothic Theatre has been postponed due to weather. A rescheduled date for the Atlanta-based hip-hop group will be announced shortly. …
Didn’t see this coming, particularly with all of the school closures and snarled roadways: We’ve just learned that tonight’s scheduled Combichrist show at Cervantes’ has been canceled. Snow, evidently, isn’t a friend to the band, which was presumably trying to make its way to the Mile High City from Salt…
This week’s flier is so freaking awesome, it wasn’t even close. Just look upon the freakish majesty of this five-eyed, skull/owl beast and weep in the face of its power. There’s really no other option. The fact that it’s a flier for the return of d.biddle to these shores (metaphorically…
As reported earlier this week, a new batch of North American dates for U2’s 360° Tour were announced, which includes a stop at Invesco Field June 12. Live Nation says 85 percent of the tickets are priced at less than $95, general admission floor tickets at $55 and at least…

The aesthetics of this week’s flier match the aesthetics of the band so well, we couldn’t help but pick it as our top design of the week — that, and the dude with the pipe reminded us of our stint in the Church of the SubGenius (all hail Bob!). The…
Just received word that the Damned, slated to appear at the Bluebird Theater with Danko Jones and the Nicotine Fits on Wednesday, October 28, has been forced to cancel all of the dates on its upcoming American tour. According to a post on the band’s site, the cancellation stems from…
Billy Joel and Elton John, both legendary pop singers and pianists, have been on their Face 2 Face tour since March will visit the Pepsi Center Sunday, November 22. After opening the show with a series of duets, each playing pianos and trading vocals, Joel and John will play sets…
It’s rare to see a flier for a dance-music event that’s this elegant and understated. Fliers for what used to be called raves relied heavily on abstract CGI imagery, eye-scorching color schemes and faux-clever drug/pop culture references to grab one’s attention. None of that is on display here. Instead we…
Update: Manchester Orchestra is playing on Friday night at Club 156 in Boulder. Andy Hull’s solo project, Right Away, Great Captain is slated to open. Tonight will mark the first time the two have performed together. Bad news for those expecting to see Manchester Orchestra, the subject of this week’s…
It’s all about the image. This week’s flier sports a warped, neo-psychedelic visual that takes us back to the days of drawing out our drug-inspired visions on our high-school math notebooks. Except, we weren’t nearly this good, and we drew a lot more dragons and shit. In any case, the…
Emmylou Harris, who was inducted into the Country Music of Hall of Last Year, visits the Macky Auditorium Friday, November 20 in support of her latest effort, All I Intended to Be. Buddy Miller, who backed up Robert Plant and Allison Krauss last year at Red Rocks, opens the show…

Update: Drag just added another show at the Triple Nickle in Colorado Springs (JJ Nobody’s place) on Thursday, October 8. This one appears to be without Slim Cessna, though.This one has all the makings of a Mile High classic. Two stellar bands, each a headliner on its own, on the…
It’s not always artful images or striking use of typography that catches our eye for a flier of the week. No, sometimes it’s just something simple, comforting and downright inviting — something like this grade-school arts-and-crafts flier for Paper Bird’s upcoming date at the Boulder Theatre this Friday, October 2…
