There may not have been crowd surfers or stage divers, or even fans screaming along the lyrics with the band, but Hot Chip definitely dominated The Ogden Theatre on Thursday night, playing to a sold out crowd of eager and devoted fans. When I walked into the venue, (or more like ran into the venue, as I was running a little late) the opening act, Slow Magic was kicking off the night to fans that were still gradually trickling through the front doors, and within seconds, I was captivated. Standing in the crowd was someone clad in a light up zebra mask, holding a floor tom and banging it along with a pulsing beat. As he climbed back onto the stage and I made my way to the front of the crowd, the set only seemed to get better and better.

The great thing about seeing a show at the Moon Room is the venue’s intimacy, and that was definitely the case when Dustin Kensrue kicked off his US headlining tour in Denver on Tuesday night. The evening was filled with fulfilled song requests, jokes and banter between Kensrue and the crowd, stories about his family, and of course, great music.
