Everything We Know About Denver

After the Derby Party on Saturday, I just couldn’t let the night end. So, naturally, post-after party I went to Earl’s followed by some real Denver gems including the Skylark and The Rock Bar.

At the Skylark Lounge (140 S. Broadway), we listened to some Johnny Cash covers by A Band Named Sue & Truckers Daughter downstairs in the dimly lit back booth, and then headed upstairs to hear a serious assortment of tunes surrounded by pool tables and the Roller Derby girls after party. This is a place that everyone should check out if you are in the Broadway area.

Next, my love the Rock Bar.  Dubbed Westword’s best new club 07, this Colfax bar has the variety you’ll love. Located at 3015 E. Colfax (Colfax and Milwaukee) at the front of the All Inn Motel. Some really great comments on it here. Best part: in an extremely ghetto hotel for those nights you just feel like really living it up, cheapish drinks, good crowd (variety - of people and music - which can be hard to come by in Denver). Worst: nasty bathrooms, can get a bit cancun-y sticky feeling in there.
