im going to be in Denver June 25th-July1(for my sister-in-laws wedding). Is there anything happining as in shows, cruises, bands, whatever? What about rod shops or old junkyards..... I just need a good reason to spend some quality time away from the in-laws
Hmm, there is always a lot to do around here in the summer. I dont have any 2006 event schedules yet. A few things I do know of are: June 25, Ford Fest at Bandimere Speedway And if you are here on July 2, there is the "Hot Rod Happining" at Bandimere also. You could stop by Streamline in Denver and look around.....if you want..... And you can check here for local music: www.denverbarndance.com .
NO- THERE IS NOTHING TO DO IN Colorado except chop wood and hunt elk. Thats all my brother in law does anyway. ! Yuk-Yuk-Yuk. Cob
Ya got to put a visit to "Streamline" on your to-do list, that place is too cool. There's also a guy named "Steve" there that talks funny! (oh, merry x-mas Steve)
June 23-25, NSRA Nats in Pueblo, CO, state fairgrounds, 1500, 2000 street rods. June 23 - Various "cruises" around town, 94th & Federal Sonic -- Seven Hills Sonic, Tower & Hampden -- Sonic on Lincoln Road (south Denver). June 24, Cruise at Sonic, 72nd and Federal June 28, Cruise at the Burger King, Jewell and Kipling, Lakewood -- Hamburger Stand, 2nd and Simms in Lakewood Some weekend "cruises" are put on by "Crusin Productions" altho I haven't seen his schedule yet...usually draw about 200-400 cars... Go see Streamline in downtown Denver...Denver Speciality is in Aurora, carries lots of good stuff but the place is small, not at all like Streamline. Junk yards: Svigels, south Santa Fe in Denver...somtimes they'll let you scrounge around, sometimes they won't! Martin's Salvage, Highway 34, Greeley used to have tons of old stuff...including forties stuff...haven't been up there lately so don't know what's left. Shops: Zoomers in Denver, Color Works in Denver, Masterpiece in Denver, Pinkee's in Ft. Collins. ColoRODo Car books, South Broadway in Englewood, ran by former R & C editor Neal East, tons of automtive books. R-
Id vote to see some drag racing at Bandimere. ( dont forget the sunscreen, your a mile high here. ) Im sure more of us will know more when it gets closer to the summer.
There is a Tiki bar thats has $1 PBR everyday. Thursday nights at the Skylark has a Good dj by the name of Woody O'Connell. The best shop to go to is AtomicAge! Bob is a amazing guy and friend. His website is www.atomicage.net Steve is a good guy to visit at dreamline I mean Streamline. Denver is full of drinking and debaucherous fun too!
Diddo on the Pinkees Rod Shop!!! I haven't been there, but their work is amazing. If I ever go to CO, that's the first place I'm goin! Reverend Jake
