Seven years have proven that determination
and a willingness to succeed can't keep a
good group of professionals down. This year
Real Estate West is proud to celebrate 7
challenging years in the real estate business.
We have stood the test of time, while some
real estate companies have not. That speaks
volumes on the drive and determination of
each agent here.
Real Estate West sells ALL types of homes ...
.from foreclosures to estates and everything
in between. Founded in Grand Junction,
Colorado, being locally owned and operated
allows us to make decisions at the local level,
without the corporate maize to negotiate. Each
and every one of our agents share in that small
company, business next door philosophy, and
we are always looking to add new agents who
believe that less is sometimes more.
We offer everything that the big box companies
offer and we keep all of our commissions right
here in Mesa County. From price counseling
to negotiating, to staging a home .... we do it
all. Our service to our buyers and sellers is
second to none.
Stop in during the months of April, May, and
June and wish us a Happy Birthday! We'd love
to share some coffee with you and get to know
you.
Located on the corner of 12th and Patterson,
in the ANB Building, and across the parking
lot from the Ale House, we look forward to
meeting you .... and helping you reach your
real estate goals!!

BMX Track Expansion
By Ryan T. Cook
“All the big pros will get to come
here and ride,” said 12-year-old
world-BMX title-holder and Grand
Valley local, Reid Austin, upon
hearing the news that Mesa County is investing in a world-class
BMX course at the Fairgrounds at
Veterans Memorial Park.
The BMX track envisioned will
host not just championship and
Olympic-qualifying events, but
will provide a destination for elite
riders from all over the region to
train and improve their skills prior
to major world competitions.
Plus, the track will cater not only
to the advanced and elite, according to Reid’s father, Mark Austin.
“It is going to have a pro section and a beginner-level section,
so riders around the state can have
more challenging courses to train
on, which will help them as they
work to compete in the Olympics
and other world events.”
Mesa County Commissioners
in February approved a grant re-
quest to Great Outdoors Colorado
(GOCO) in the amount of $300,000
that would not just improve the
existing facilities and infrastructure, but would build an advanced
obstacle track, a 26-foot starting
hill and a new entrance road that
parallels the course. The Town of
Palisade, City of Fruita and CMU
are among partners also contributing to this vision. The total project
is expected to cost $2.5 million.
In March, Commissioners followed up the grant application approval with a letter to USA BMX
that commits the county to the
project by July 2015, contingent on
over $606,000 in funds raised from
USA and Grand Valley BMX to
help cover the costs.
Grand Junction hopes to become one of the nation’s only BMX
Olympic-qualifying venues. Currently, riders such as Reid must
travel to Rock Hill SC or Chula
Vista CA to participate in championship qualifying events.
Mark Austin said, “Only a few

Girl Scout Cookies & Cocktails on May 2!
As part of the many established annual traditions here in
the Grand Valley, Girl Scouts of
America is hosting their 4th annual Cookies and Cocktails event on
May 2 at Allen Unique Autos. The
event will feature the outstanding
workmanship and delicious recipes created by local chefs in our
communities’ local restaurants.
These phenomenal creators of delicious entrees will prepare their
wonderful meal for all to enjoy, as
they provide the tasting of many
wines, drinks and select favorites
from the valley.
The initial introduction of the
dishes took place on March 20
at the local Girl Scout office, 580
24.5 Rd. There, six signature chefs
tracks are technical enough to hold
qualifying events. Because there
are not that many of these tracks
in the United States, you’re going
to start to see higher caliber riders
come here to the Grand Valley as
we get these facilities. They don’t
even have these types of facilities
in Denver.”
Nick Adams is the Chief Marketing Officer with USA BMX and specializes in new track development.
He said, “Grand Junction and the
Mesa County Fairgrounds have a
long history of BMX. The program
at Grand Valley BMX has been
very successful and has a proven
track record. With the updated

the relocation of the BMX track,

“The events we are committed to being prepared for are national and international (Olympic)

Jo Carole Haxel, manager of the
Fairgrounds at Veterans Memorial

lots of competitors and spectators

we expect some of them to make

“It’s a dream come true,” Reid
said. “I thought I would have to

Feedback
I’m wondering if any other
parents out there got incredibly
thrown off with the new two-week
spring break schedule here in the
Grand Valley. Did you?
I can’t quite nail down why it’s
thrown off my work schedule,
sleep schedule and life schedule,
but it most certainly did.
We had the opportunity to make
our yearly spring break trek to Las
Vegas for seven days of non-stop
running, sunning and gunning. To
say it was relaxing would be a partial embellishment. We had kids,
grandma, brother and wives in
tow. Trying to make three different
generations happy took some serious juggling.
I tend to want to spend my time
in the casinos. Because I heard Vegas is down in revenues, I did my
part in making sure that I donated
to them a house payment or two
before I left. I finally found a great
casino full of locals that didn’t
cost an arm and a leg to sit at a
Blackjack table and play. I suggest

The Cost of Waiting
By Adrea Haitz
The real estate market has dramatically changed in the Grand
Valley over the past few years.
We’ve gone from the market’s falling out from underneath us all in
2008 to all-time low-interest rates
in 2012 and 2013.
Over the past year to 18 months,
we’ve seen the real estate market
stabilize, and we’ve seen some
slight increases in the values, ranging from 2-6% is some areas.
We’ve started to see buyer activity increase. There are still some
who are waiting for interest rates
to go lower; however, it does not
appear that will happen any time
soon. Below is a chart that shows
the cost of waiting. If you wait too
long, a rate increase could dramatically change your buying power—
as much as $20,000, or even more.
If you are curious about what is
going on in the mortgage arena,
contact a local loan officer. He or
she can look at your specific situ-

ation and guide you in what will

As for real estate in the Grand
Valley, it’s certainly an active market for both buying and selling.
Foreclosures have decreased, and
more sellers with equity are starting to put their homes up for sale.
These are both signs of a healthy,
stable market.

Nightmare on Any
Street
Once, I had a
car that hated
my guts (also my
pancreas, liver and
tonsils). It played
sly, sadistic games
with my central nervous system. I
never knew why.
At first, I discounted its tricks.
I chuckled after my seatbelt
unbuckled itself, nearly shearing
off a portion of my anatomy (half
of a valuable set). I wondered
when my locked door suddenly
flew open as I skirted a corner.
I worried after a tire burst into
flame as I motored along the
highway. These things can happen
to anyone, I rationalized. Still, I
doubted that all three things had
happened to anyone just driving
home from the dealership.
My nemesis, the “Merc,” was a
mid-80’s Mercury station wagon
with power-everything, as I
learned on my first solo outing to
the Monument. Nearing a tunnel,
I pulled the button for headlights.
Two buttons, a dial and a lever
later, I had no lights, but I’d
washed the windshield, spiked
the aerial, tuned in a Texas blues
station, popped the hood, signaled
turns in both directions and hit
the horn enough times that an
oncoming motorist screeched to a
stop. I was mortified as he stood
on the roadway still screeching
when I entered the tunnel.
Once, after I dropped my sons at
school, the Merc pretended to die
in the school driveway, jamming
a considerable traffic of parents
in the same work-wending hurry

I was. My repeated attempts to
revive the Merc failed. A stream
of invectives in English, pig Latin
and a language of clicks and curses
I invented on the spot didn’t move
the Merc. Dad after annoyed dad
eased around me and revved off,
as I reconsidered my zeal for the
equal rights amendment.
There was a tap at my window.
“Car trouble?” the woman
inquired.
No bigger than a third-grader,
she offered help. I blubbered
gratefully and manned the driver’s
side as she went to the front of the
Merc, and we pushed. We rocked
and PUSHED. We ROCKED
AND PUSHED. The Merc finally
budged, and the little woman and
pushed it backward out of traffic.
I hopped in and tried to start it
again.
“Boy, power steering is no
earthly good with the engine off,”
I yelled out my window.
“Oopff,” my petite rescuer said.
I looked up to clarify her
comment, but she’d disappeared.
Rushing to the front of the Merc,
I found the woman rising from a
puddle.
“I broke a nail!” she wailed,
her white fur parka dribbling wet
drizzle.
A second woman wandered by,
and the three of us pushed the
Merc into a legitimate parking
space. The women wouldn’t
accept money, so I took their
names, meaning to write them
into my will, as soon as I made
one.
The drizzly woman said, “I bet
you get it started later today.”
“Don’t bet. It’ll be dead until
someone else starts it,” I declared
ruefully. “This car hates me.”
To prove my point, I made a
show of turning the key in the
ignition. The Merc roared like the
MGM lion, settling into a purring
idle.
“Yes,” she sighed, “I see that
now.”
During our years together,
the Merc delighted in increasing
my stress level and blood
pressure while decreasing my life
expectancy and functional IQ. It
shut my hand in its door, ripped
wood struts from a neighbor’s
carport, bounded into covert
culverts, falsely manipulated its

a ham dinner, and some years we
just make sandwiches. This year, I
want to try something new. What
do you do for food? Leg of lamb?
Prime rib? Grill?
This is what I am want to do....
Inspired by Jamie Oliver’s Roasted
Shoulder of Lamb
Ingredients
6 pounds bone-in leg of lamb
8 fresh sprigs rosemary
6 garlic cloves whole and
unpeeled
Melted coconut oil
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Lay leg of lamb fat-side up on
a cutting board, and score the fat
all the way across the top. Do this
by applying slight pressure with
the front end of the knife and
running it all the way across the
top of the fat; continue until the
entire top fat is scored and then do
it the opposite direction to create a
crosshatch.
Lay 4 sprigs rosemary and
3 garlic cloves in bottom of a
roasting pan and place meat,
scored fat side up, on top of the
rosemary and garlic (remember to
leave the garlic cloves whole and
unpeeled).
Lightly drizzle coconut oil over
the scored fat part of the meat,
just enough to lightly coat most
of it (about a tablespoon), add
salt, pepper and lay the remaining
whole unpeeled garlic and
rosemary on top of the meat.
Tent the entire roasting pan with
foil and place in oven. As soon as
you put it in the oven, close the
door and immediately turn the
oven down to 325 degrees.
Let it roast in the oven, covered
the entire time, for about 4 hours.
Once it is done, the bone should be
easy to remove.
This meat is so tender it isn’t
really possible to slice it, so it’s
easier just to pull it off with a fork
and put it on your plate.
On the side, I am going to cook
some Yukon gold potatoes in
the pressure cooker, roast some
broccoli, and maybe serve a nice
salad.
Happy spring

Spring had
sprung, and
we are so
ready for it.
Can you believe the winter that
this country has had?! From coast
to coast, it’s been crazy weather.
On the western slope, we are ready
for hiking, fishing, picnics on the
Mesa, spring on the Monument
and so much more.
Easter is late this year, April 20....
Very appropriate here in Colorado,
if you get my drift! What do you
do for Easter? Do you have the
big feast? Or is more about the
chocolate coma? Either way, I hope
you’re spending time with great
friends and family.
Our Easter celebration has
evolved over the years because of
kiddos’ getting older (mind you,
I am not getting older—just the
kids). We still have an egg hunt,
and each person gets to hide the
eggs, and then there is an egg toss
with raw eggs (yuck), and we try
to play a game like win, lose, or
draw. The goal is to spend some
time together and just have fun.
As for food, we are pretty
easygoing. Some years, we have
dashboard gauges, hid its own
jack after deliberately running
over nails, and scarred itself
senselessly to spite me….
…Eventually, I acquired a
classic 1964 Ford Falcon that
liked me. I gleefully left the Merc
parked pouting while I advertised
it for sale. The day of the deal,
I approached the Merc warily,
struggling to list for my potential
buyer
its
virtues—without
smirking or lying. I expected the
Merc to drop its engine or belch
fire when the new owner drove
away, but, with a jaunty wave, the
man glided the Merc up the street
and away.
Exhausted and relieved, I
climbed into the Falcon and turned
the key. It ground and ground.
Nothing. I tried again, again,
again, my pulse rate quickening.
I rolled down the window,
inviting a soft breeze to massage
the frown from my forehead. On
the edge of the breeze, I heard
a familiar growl and grating,
metallic laughter.
“Goodbye, Merc,” I murmured.
Building is all for sale right now asking
$1,500,000. negotiable.

Can
you
imagine being
a city council
person in a
room full of
people as you, with a straight
face, no less, explain to Catholic
Outreach you can’t afford to waive
$110,000 in development fees
as they try to build housing for
homeless vets, after voting a few
weeks ago to increase spending on
the Symphony’s dream palace on
Main Street by nearly $2 million
dollars? Remember, a few weeks
ago, city council members smiled
as they allocated another couple of
million dollars on top of the nine
or so million dollars already going
into the Symphony’s new digs? If
I remember right, they magically
found about $900,000 left over
from last year that was just sitting
around somewhere collecting
dust; and they allocated it to the
flautists’ dream palace.
Now, let’s look at these two
projects and what they were asking
of the city. Catholic Outreach is
building a facility that’s a group
of apartments to house homeless
veterans; and Catholic Outreach
came to the city not with their hand
out to take money from the public
coffers, but just a request not to be
charged an additional $110,000 by
the city for “development fees”
on top of all the costs incurred in
building the housing.
If you decide to add anything
to the city, you are supposed to
offset any infrastructure costs the
city will incur and pump up the
school district. $10,000 plus of
the $110,000 is to go to the school
district for all those added children
that will pour out into the school
district from this tiny group of
Sticking it to the Man: Higher Education
By Scott Wolford
and academic achievement will
be rewarded with economic security is breaking down. Chances are,
you know a recent college graduate living in his/her parents’ basement. There are millions of them
out there. Over 50% of all recent
college graduates are jobless or
underemployed, revealing a deep
disconnect between higher education and the job market. Adding
insult to injury, these recent graduates are deeply in debt. The average student loan is now $27,253.
A total of $1 trillion of outstanding student loans weigh down our
economy, on a trajectory to $2 trillion by 2016.
College has evolved into what
economists call “a rent-seeking
cartel,” an alliance of semi-competitive institutions that maintain
a highly profitable monopoly of
accreditation. (The institution is
accredited to teach you.)
But companies today are not so
thrilled with college accreditation.
Google no longer considers college history in potential new hires
because they know it has zero correlation with professional success.
What companies prefer to see is
the individual’s accreditation.
Doctors, lawyers, engineers, financial planners, real estate brokers,
accountants, (too many to list),
all must serve apprenticeships
and pass exams in order to serve
professionally. I couldn’t care less
where my doctor went to undergraduate school, but I’m keenly
interested in her status with her
certifying board.
But, you say, we need college to
broaden our horizons and have a
“college experience.” I’m not so
sure people understand what the
“college experience” really is. Before 1940, only 5% of American
population had a college degree.
College was the domain of the
elite. Rich people sent their children to university primarily to
make social connections used later
in life, when they were running the
country. And the context of their
learning was always “this is what
you need to know in order to run
the country.”
Today’s college experience is
really just a mass production facsimile of the original experience.
Sure, life-long connections happen
today, but they are few and far between. When we as a society tire of
while we still have to soak Catholic
Outreach for $110,000 in taxes and
fees as they try to build something
as noble as housing for homeless
veterans? Did these men and
women not do something far more
reward-worthy than playing a flute
in a $10 million building? Are the
hanging gardens worth more that
basic housing for those who risked
life and limb for our country? How
can the five out of the seven who
voted for the increase in funding
for the Avalon look in the mirror
after denying the waiver for the
homeless veterans?
It was not a request for money, it
was a request that the city not add
to the costs of a noble endeavor.
Last, notice that not one of the
five Council members offered to
chip in even a few symbolic bucks
out of their own pocket for the
veterans’ housing, as they did for
the Avalon.
What a sad day for what was
once a proud, giving community.

After
graduating from
Central High
School in 1984,

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University on an Air Force ROTC scholarship,
earning a BS in aeronautical engineering in 1989. He served 20 years in the
Air Force, having assignments in intelligence, laboratory research, F-117A

Historical Preservation Board.
The Daily Sentinel front page
article on Sunday was a celebration of Tim Foster’s ten-year anniversary as president of Colorado
Mesa University (CMU). CMU is
the fastest growing college in the
state and a bright spot in our community. But is growth for the sake
of growth what we really want?
Has anybody thought to ask why
we are trusting CMU so blindly
to reshape our community when
they are using an education model
so utterly out of date? What are we
going to do with all these vacant
buildings when the students stop
coming?
The central problem with higher
education today is that the organizational structure of “go somewhere else to hear a lecture” is
obsolete. The Internet has changed
everything. Most colleges, including CMU, realize “distance learning” via the Internet represents the
future of learning, and they are offering curricula online. Massachusetts Institute of Technology was a
pioneer in offering online college
courses, and they still have the
most diverse and in-depth collection of classes available anywhere.
So, if you had the choice, would
you rather enroll in MIT’s program
and listen to world-class lectures at
home in your pajamas, or move to
Grand Junction to slog every day
into a nice, new building? Kids are
making that calculation every day.
Another key problem is that the
social contract where hard work
indulging our children for an “experience” that is largely forgettable
in later life, the funding for it will
surely dry up.
For sure, CMU is a fantastic
bright spot in our community.
But, given all the headwinds universities are facing today, I’m not
so sure CMU’s next ten years will
be as exciting as the last ten years.
Blind optimism is not a strategy. If
we follow unquestioningly, without fully understanding and considering the bigger picture, we
may be stuck with a glut of vacant
buildings. I guess, on the bright
side, we’ll at least have a place to
house all the homeless wandering
our streets.
million or $8.1 million or $9.1
million, or whatever the hell
number they were up to before the
last request; and they would have
to exclude the planned Hanging
Gardens of Babylon slated for the
rooftop terrace with its windproof
barriers to keep top hats in place.
The gardens are needed on the
roof, because luxury penthouse
apartments will look down upon
them after being built in phase two
or three. The penthouses are just
another five or six million dollars
farther down the road to taxpayers’
perdition.
The City Council naturally
nodded their approval for the extra
millions, and the City Manager
said the city could use $900,000 in
unspent funds left over from 2013.
Two council members threw a
couple of bucks of their own money
on the burning pile of taxpayers’
hard-earned money, and the silkand-top-hat crowd gave what was
reported as “spirited applause.”
So, am I the only one who
does not understand how we can
have $900,000 just laying around
in “unspent funds” that can be
allocated for the Main Street
Monument to Tax and Spend

houses provided for the homeless
veterans who live in our city.
Grand Valley Catholic Outreach
is spending over $2 million on the
veterans’ housing project, and, if
they were any outside company,
the city would give them tax
preferences and waive any fees,
just to get the project going. But
Catholic Outreach asked for the
waiver, the city council smiled
and told them no, no help for the
vets. Dig deeper into your charity
pockets if you want to build this
much-needed housing.
This conversation came only a
few weeks after the Symphony
showed up, top hats in hand, to
request another $1.45 million on
top of the seven or eight or nine
million dollars already allocated,
depending on whose figures
you’re reading. As near as I can
tell, the project just broke $10
million with the latest request, but
don’t hold anybody to numbers;
and remember, every time these
numbers are mentioned, you see

Medical Marijuana Evaluations
Complete Application Package
IRRELATIVITY...Get High
By Barry Smith
[email protected]
(At
the
newly
opened
recreational marijuana dispensary
in Colorado.)
CLERK: Hello. Welcome to
Bud’s Bud Emporium Place. How
can I help you, obviously socially
awkward customer?
ME: Hi. Do you sell bongs?
CLERK: Yep. Right over in that
display case. Anyone in particular
you’d like to see?
ME: No, I just wanted to be able
to say “bong” out loud without
being asked to leave the store.
See, in the old days, when you
went into a head shop, you had to
pretend that you were using bongs
to smoke tobacco, and you had to
call them “water pipes,” because,
if you actually said “bong,” the
clerk would legally be obligated
to kick you out. So you had to do
this surreal nudge-nudge winkwink dance the whole time you
were having a conversation. They
even had a big sign saying that
anyone talking about anything
other than “tobacco” and “water
pipes” would be asked to leave.
No kidding. In the old days it was
especially….
CLERK: (Pointing to a sign
that reads “ANY CUSTOMER
MENTIONING THE ‘OLD DAYS’
WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE.”)
Ahem!
ME: (Reading sign while moving
lips.) Oh, sorry. Just as well,
though. Going forward, right? I’m
here today to buy some marijuana
so I can smoke it and get high.
Whew…feels good to say that out
loud.
CLERK: Well, I’m sure we
can help you out. What are you
interested in?
ME: Oh, man, it’s been so long
since I’ve toked up on some reefer.
CLERK: (silence)
ME: I even brought my own film
canister, in case you’re running
low.
CLERK: What’s film?
ME: Never mind. I guess I’ll just
take an order of some regular old
MaryJane, please. To go.
CLERK: No, it doesn’t work
like that. We have over 35 popular
strains of indica, sativa and hybrids.
You’ll need to choose one. You
don’t just walk into a restaurant
and order “food,” do you?
ME: Well, maybe. If I’m really
high from smoking marijuana!
Which I will be very soon, right
after purchasing it in this store!
Legally! Ha! Man, I feel so alive.
CLERK: Anyway, what would
you like?
ME: Well, um…what’s good?
CLERK: Here, smell this, and
tell me what you think.
ME: I can’t smell anything.
CLERK: It works better if you
close your mouth.
ME: Oh, right. Sorry. Like I say,
it’s been a while. (Sniff) Whoa! That
smells like Tommy Chong used a
skunk for a deodorant stick.
CLERK: It’s called “Amnesia
Wreck.” It’s quite popular.
ME: Amnesia wreck? That
doesn’t sound fun. That’s, like, two
unpleasant situations and activities
that I’d like to avoid, all rolled into
one. Why would you call it that?
CLERK: Maybe some “Jack the
Ripper?” It’s a very well received
hybrid.
ME: Jack the Ripper? You do
know that that’s the name of a
gruesome serial killer from the
1800s, right?
CLERK: What’s the 1800s?
ME: Never mind. I’m not sure
that any association with serial
killing is really what I’m looking
for in this experience. I was kinda
leaning a bit more towards gentle
euphoria, maybe some mild
introspection. Occasional giggling
would also be acceptable.
CLERK: How about some
“Alaskan Thunderf**k?”
ME: Even though I’m not totally
sure what it means, I’m pretty sure
that getting thunderf****d is not
something I’d enjoy.
CLERK: We just got a delivery
of “Total Irreversible Paralysis.”
ME: Please tell me that’s
marketing hyperbole.
CLERK:
Sort
of.
The
“irreversible” part is a stretch.
It does render you completely
incapable of any bodily movement,
but unfortunately it wears off after
a few hours.
ME: Look, I just want to just get
a bit stoned and watch some old
Bullwinkle cartoons.
CLERK: What’s…
ME:
Don’t
say,
“What’s
Bullwinkle?” Just sell me some
marijuana that won’t totally and
utterly obliterate me. Please.
CLERK: Hmmm…that’s not a
request I’ve ever heard before.
ME: I’ll wait.
CLERK: Maybe some “Pantsless
on the Playground?”
ME: No.
CLERK: “Rear-End a Cop Car?”
ME: No.
CLERK: “Burn Down the
Neighborhood Making Nachos
While Laughing Uproariously at
the Human Condition?”
ME: No.
CLERK: “Flies Laying Eggs
under your Skin?”
ME: No.
CLERK:
“Unimaginable
Paranoid Anxiety?”
ME: No.
CLERK:
“Sobbing Incontinence?”
ME: Absolutely not.
CLERK: Sorry, gramps. I think
you may be in the wrong place.
Maybe you should head over to
the grocery store and score a bag
of oregano.
ME: Very funny. I’ll have you
know that back in the old days we
would….

PATO BANTON
A Pato Banton concert is an event not to be missed and an
experience not to be forgotten. Positive vibrations abound with
a beat to keep you on your dancing feet, while Pato delivers a
message that is food for mind and soul. Many have considered
his charismatic performance as live theatre where no show is alike
and audience members become participants in the experience.
FRACTALIA
FUNKDAFARI
Cultivated in the San Juan Mountains of Southwest Colorado,
Funkdafari crushes the idea of genre—unless, of course, you
consider chest-pounding musical mystery a genre. A Funkdafari
show is like taking a worldly walk-about. Every song has you
rounding another corner into a neighborhood of diversity.
The conception of beauty
through chaos. This perhaps
best describes the decade-long
musical journey of Western
Slope band Fractalia. Founded
in 2002, the group’s initial
inspiration drew from the
concept of fractal geometry
through a use of self- similar
polyrhythmic
patterns
to
build it’s elaborate sound
structure. Just as fractals can be
analyzed in countless naturally
occurring phenomena,
so
too has their self-proclaimed
“fractal music” continued to
undergo seemingly infinite
manifestations over the years.

Interviews by Jeffrey Inks
Name: Nick James Pantoja
Age: 37
Occupation: Central Sterile Tech @ St.Mary’s Hospital
Hobbies: Disc Golf, Music, Trail Running, Cooking, and
Moose Watching with my daughter!
Family: I have a soon-to-be 4-year-old daughter named
Paige Emily.
Restaurants: I do enjoy the Texas Roadhouse! ...and my
home cookin ;-)
Goals: Spending quality time with my daughter! Run some
races this year, continue to play music and to keep loving my
job as I have for over 3 years now!
Top 5 bands: Honestly, I don’t have much on the iPod...
Ummm... Wheel, Gnar, Gomez, the Beatles, and more Wheel.
I put old albums we recorded in there so I wouldn’t lose the
music over time. I have no more actual CDs of Wheel and
Gnar. I’m glad I did that!
I believe I first heard you play at an Open Mic Night at
The Chameleon Club around 1996-97. Is that when you
first started looking at forming a band? What was your first
band?
In 1994, I really started getting interested and familiar with
the music scene here. I also started playing disc golf in ’94,
which made the whole hobby and sport work together like
a dream! I played bass in college with a punk band called
“Apex!” We played all kinds of college parties, and that was
ridiculously fun! At that same time in my life, I started playing in a more jam-band kind of sound. We were called “Junkyard Union.” I enjoyed this band because I was able to sing
and play lots of lead!
I also remember working with a band you formed called
Gracious Grooves. Why did that band dissolve?
That was an amazing band with some great original songs.
Gracious Grooves was hands-down one of the best bands we
could put together. We had the 7-piece funk set up from Hell!
Everyone was good and creative. We opened for some big
bands all over Colorado and Utah. We sold out locally all the
time! Some great local shows like Station 234, the old Cruisers, and Avalon and Mesa Theater made it easy for us to get
shows and festivals everywhere! I miss those times, for sure!
We were a little wild at times; but once 4 or 5 of the band
members had children and new jobs out of state, it ended
quickly. Oh, well! I still have a Best of the West certificate
hanging on my wall! Fun group!
I think of you as more of a front man, lead-singer type,
yet you also play guitar. At which of those do you most excel?
I think I excel at guitar and vocals. I really believe that guitar and vocals go hand-in-hand when writing songs. I kind
of grew up with those two instruments together, and I need
them! I could remember when I wrote “Uncompahgre” on
the dusty dashboard of my Geo Metro on my way to a Durango disc golf tournament in the early 2000s! I didn’t have
my guitar and wasn’t even singing the song at the time. So, I
guess you don’t “need” to have the guitar! Sorry, got off the
subject a little bit!
When you write an original song, what is the process and
how long does it usually take?
Most of the songs I ever wrote came to me so fast that it was
amazing! Kind of like “Uncompahgre,” songs like “Lovely
Lady” and “Back Again” happened while running in Steamboat before a wedding and just hanging out at the potholes!
I just recently wrote 5 new songs, but I haven’t been going
over too much new material, with all the songs Nick Pants
Band has been running through lately! Busy Busy!
What is your favorite venue to play? What’s the largest
crowd you’ve played in front of? I have lots of venues I’d call
my favorite! The grotto in Aspen, the Victoria in Salida, all
of Telluride , Sunlight Festival, and the old Spotlight in Gj !
There are so many venues that made our experience so much
fun and incredible, it’s hard to point out just one favorite!
I do remember opening up for Carlos Washington from the
Grayboy Allstars with Gracious Grooves at the Fox Theater!
That was huge. We also opened for Drums ’n Tuba in Steamboat. That was pretty big, too! There are too many to keep
goin’!
What are your top 3 musical influences?
My 3 musical influences: Grateful Dead, the Allman Brothers, and maybe Sublime/Django/Zep/Hank Sr./Blind Mellon/Petty! :-)
What type of music should the Fat Tire Festival fans expect to hear at the festival?
Fat Tire Fest!: Expect nothing but clean, energetic full-vocal
sounds from a unique four-piece! NPB is a 3-acoustic-anddrummer band. We have no bass player; however, the crisp
and fresh sounds of our newly-strung guitars bring the happiness! We have a rock/ country/ billy/ reggae sound. It’s
pretty neat. I think you’ll like it!
How have you improved as a player in the last 20 years?
In the past 20 years, as I started playing in the valley and
around Colorado, the one thing I learned about guitar is
that there are a bunch of great players! I started playing jazz
chords and leads a bit over the years to help me innovate
more riffs in my music. I also enjoy getting online and learning new styles from all the crazy good players in the world!
What is the hardest part of being in the music business?
The absolute hardest part in the music business is to keep
pushing on! Just because you go through a two-week tour
doesn’t mean it’s time for a break. It means you need to work
even harder and set up your next string of shows, practice
your new and old material that didn’t sound very good on
tour. Most of all, if you’re not having fun with the music anymore, well, you know the drill. Jah!
Trubelos • Civic Center Park
Friday April 25 • 6:00pm
Name: Lauren Michaels
Age: 27
Occupation: Lead Singer for Trubelos and flight attendant
for Frontier Airlines
Hobbies: Dirt biking
Family: Love ‘em
Favorite Restaurant: Santiago’s, on Santa Fe and Fifth in
Denver...Best green chile around!
Goals: To be the best singer I can be
Top 5 Bands on your iPod: Nickel Creek, Kacey Musgraves, Led Zeppelin, Susan Tedeschi, Chromeo.
When did your band form?
Trubelos formed about 2 years ago. It started out with Sandy and me; then we kept adding on with Randy and Kevin,
whom we met at an open mic we went to weekly. Dan, our
drummer, a friend and band mate of Sandy’s, joined us shortly after.
Can you describe your sound and what type of music Fat
Tire Festival fans can expect?
They can expect to dance—a lot! Our sound is definitely
upbeat, fun and a mix of everything! We play anything from
country to blues. We have a lot of original tunes, and we also
do a wide mix of covers.
Who are your top 3 main musical influences?
I’m really into Bluegrass and many of the newer female
Country singers—Kacey Musgraves, for one. I also love the
Blues, and our band covers enough different genres that I
never get bored with our tunes.
What is your favorite venue to perform?
We have a lot of fun at the Mercury Cafe in Denver; it’s
kind of a magical place. And we love playing this little place
in the mountains outside of Denver, called the Bucksnort
Saloon—amazing vibe!
How hard is keeping cohesiveness among your band
members? Our band has really lucked out with how well we
get along and what great friends we’ve all become. All the
members in our band are so diverse, and I think that gives us
a great dynamic and allows for creativity on so many different levels. I believe that being able to communicate and understand other ideas and to work together has helped us get
to the point we are. We’ve recorded 2 albums, won the Rocky
Mountain Battle of the Bands, and had a ton of fun playing
almost every weekend together. We think of each other as
family, and I think that’s how we were able to achieve that.
Does your anytime band plan to tour outside Colorado
soon?
Hmmm... Well, our second CD is just now coming out.
Maybe we can spread a little farther from home soon. We like
building our fan base one at a time, and that takes a while!
How competitive is the Denver music scene theses days?
I think the Denver music scene is one of the best in the country. We were in a battle of the bands competition last summer and became great friends with some of the bands we
competed against! They have even helped us get more gigs! I
think the Denver music scene is a great community of people
who love music and can appreciate what other bands have to
offer. There is a lot of helping each other going on!
Dan Sheridan • Civic Center Park
Saturday April 26 • 1:30pm
Name: Dan Sheridan
Profession:
Singer/Songwriter
Hobbies: Motorcycling, Fly Fishing, Smashing stuff
Family: Son, Jack, 10 years old; daughter, Katie, 8 years
old; sweet and kind girlfriend, Mitzi, 45 years old.
Favorite restaurant: Daily Bread, Glenwood Springs
Goals: to be able to provide for my family by performing original material and selling
CDs and to remain
creative, curious,
and inspired; to be
generous and kind
and create peace—
and to smash less
stuff!
How
many
shows do you do
per year? 75 to 100
Didn’t one of
your songs get
bought and used
by NBC for one of
their TV shows?
Tell me more about
how that happened?
I have a publisher in LA who gets my songs on TV shows. It’s not a big deal,
but it’s nice to receive a BMI check in my mailbox from time
to time.
What is your favorite venue to play?
Wheeler Opera House in Aspen or Steve’s Guitars in Carbondale—any venue with a listening audience that likes folk
music. Outdoor music festivals are great, too.
Who are your top 3 musical influences?
Neil Young, James Taylor, Todd Snider, Larry Good.
Which artist out there do you think is the best songwriter
around? Todd Snider
How long does it take to write the lyrics and music for
one of your songs - on average?
Most songs arrive very quickly. Usually, they write themselves in 20 minutes or so. If I have to work on them too
long, they usually don’t turn out very well—the less of ME
involved with the songwriting process, the better.
Once you had your own children, did that change they
type of songs you write? Absolutely. It changed the kind of
life I was living, and that
changed the kind of songs I was writing. It also diminished my desire to be creative, because my kids filled me up
so much!
When you used to play with the band Treehouse, what
were some of the highlights of being in that band?
The laughter, humor, and friendship of hanging out with
arry and Paul! It was very funny and creative. That was my
favorite part.
Do you any new CDs being produced?
I recently finished up a NEW CD, recorded at E-TOWN
studios in Boulder, with some old and new tunes performed
in a loose and live style. It’s a pretty honest and accurate portrayal of my sound and style.
Bicycle Annie - Civic Center Park
About a year ago, a new band hit the scene in the Grand Valley. Playing a mix of 90’s
alternative, a little bit of 80’s and just a dash of classic rock, Bicycle Annie quickly established themselves and became a favorite at a number of local venues. They regularly
appear at places like Cruisers, Naggy McGees, Palisade Brewery and Triple Tree Lounge.
They are also performing at several events over the summer including Fruita Fat Tire Fest,
Mike The Headless Chicken Fest and will be performing for the Fruita Thursday Night
Concert Series in July.
The band started with one idea in mind: play great music that everyone knows and can
sing along with. With it’s memorable guitar riffs, smart lyrics and creative arrangements, the alternative music of the 90’s
seemed to be a natural fit. From one hit wonders like Marcy Playground and Seven Mary 3 to more established bands like
Collective Soul, Stone Temple Pilots and Green Day, Bicycle Annie offers a range of tunes that is sure to please.
“When we start playing a song, we want you to go, ‘I LOVE this song!’ Thats kind of the whole idea of the band”, says
drummer Jeff Steele. “Everyone in this band loves the music that we do. Each one of us is at home on the stage. It is where
we want to be. I think the combination of playing music that you love, a passion for performance and really grooving with
your bandmates creates a chemistry that everyone can see and appreciate.”

Free Sweet Adelines Concert April 22!
All music lovers in the valley and the many friends and family of
Grand Mesa Chorus (Sweet Adelines) are invited to the Friends and
Family Night Concert. Mark you calendar for Tuesday evening, April 22,
at 7pm. The free concert will be held at the Redlands United Methodist
Church, 527 Village Way, on the Redlands.
Everyone is welcome to experience this dress rehearsal performance in
preparation for the annual regional Sweet Adelines competition. The chorus will be performing the two “competition songs” that will be sung on
stage at the actual competition Saturday, May 3, plus a variety of songs all
in the classic a capella barbershop harmony. Cover Charge Quartet and
the Bookcliff Barbershop Chorus will also be featured!
Twenty-two members of the Sweet Adelines International Grand Mesa
Chorus will travel to Colorado Springs and compete on stage Saturday,
May 3. Fourteen choruses will be on stage in categories of small, medium
and large choruses. Grand Mesa Chorus is in the small chorus category
and will be number six in the lineup. Twenty-seven quartets will also
compete, including our very own “Cover Charge” quartet.
If you are a woman and miss music in your life, Grand Mesa Chorus
might just be for you. Here is the perfect opportunity to check out the

It’s been AWESOME!
Two decades ago it wasn’t likely that anyone would have said, “Let’s go play in Fruita this weekend.” Fruita CO 20 years ago may not have been known for its nightlife and wasn’t yet known
for its world-class mountain biking. But the conversation was starting about a mountain biking
movement in Western Colorado, and things in Fruita were about to change… and change for the
more awesome.
Hello, I’m Troy Rarick, founder of the Fruita Fat Tire Festival, inviting you to come out and
celebrate the 19th year of this party in Fruita. April 25th weekend you should come out and
share in the fun of what has happened in Fruita mountain biking since the Fat Tire Fest began.
The Grand Valley has become a world mountain biking destination, and the Fruita Fat Tire Fest
has been the “kick-off celebration” of that movement and possibly the entire mountain
bike season—well, at least for those who ski. Fruita is iconic in the MTB world and
plays host to this amazing trail system surrounding us. But even if you do not ride a bike,
or haven’t found mountain biking just yet, there are plenty of great reasons to come to
the 19th Annual Fruita Fat Tire Festival.
Live music Friday and Saturday, New Belgium Beer, and the chance to mingle with some
fun people from all over the world. You might even see me kicking it in the grass center
stage, and you might even wander my way and kick back in the grass with a beer and
share stories of life and awesome things. If you do ride or you think you want to give
it a try, this is a perfect time with demo bikes from the industry’s best, tons of people
to ride with and a band and beer awaiting you when you’re done in downtown Fruita.
Come out and play!
Most of all, thanks for all of the people who have and do support crazy ideas like the one
of making the Grand Valley a World Mountain Biking destination. Thanks to all of you who
have and do support this event, the trails, small business, live music, craft beer and sharing
awesome times with awesome people. Come hang out in Fruita April 25-26 Event schedule
is online at fruitamountainbiking.com, but there’s pretty much expo all day, beer afternoon
and music deep into the evening. Thank you for all the support and for an awesome place to
live since 1972. Hope to see you out in Fruita.
Come out and play!

CMU Entertainment
for April—and Beyond!
Colorado Mesa University has
a slate of great entertainment
planned for April 2014—and beyond!
First off, the Faculty Piano Trio
will be Thursday, April 17, 7:30pm,
at the Moss Performing Arts Center Recital Hall. Admission is $10
adults, $8 seniors, $5 students; get
more info at Box Office, 248-1604.
The Piano Trio consists of Arthur
Houle, piano; Kristen Yeon-Ji Yun,
cello; and Alejandro Gomez Guillen, violin. The trio will perform
a suite of Duke Ellington pieces
that has been arranged by Yun and
Houle, along with an Astor Piazzilla Piano Trio titled Libertango
and the Mendelssohn Piano Trio
No. 1 in D minor.
CMU Main Stage Theatre Arts
Season closes with spectacular
technical theatre in “Eurydice” at
the Moss Performing Arts Center,
Robinson Theatre, on April 16–19.
Admission is $20 adults, $15 seniors, and $6 students. Call Box
Office at 248-1604.
CMU’s Theatre season will
close April 16–19 with Pulitzer
Prize nominee Sarah Ruhl’s memory play Eurydice. The play is a
contemporary look at the myth of
Orpheus and re-tells the story from
the perspective of his wife Eurydice, with her descent into Hades,
where she learns about love and
loss, and wrestles with the decision
to return to earth with her husband
or to stay in Hades with her father.
Written by Ruhl after the death of
her own father, Eurydice’s poetic
style is visually magical and emotionally alluring, providing a fresh
look at a timeless story.
CMU’s production will be a
masterpiece of technical theatre,
complete with a raining elevator,
a running river and pool, projected
virtual actors, and a raked stage.
Jerry Ditter, CMU’s Technical Director, will also direct the play,
in addition to acting as its set designer for this production. Tickets
for Eurydice are available at the
Box Office by calling 248-1604, or
tickets may be purchased online at
coloradomesa.edu/mosstickets.

The Mesa Repertory Theatre
presents New Theatre for a New
Audience at the Moss Performing Arts Center, Mesa Experimental Theatre June 12–29, 2014, with
tickets available at the Box Office,
248-1604.
Colorado Mesa University’s
Department of Theatre Arts announces “New Theatre for a New
Audience,” the third season of the
Mesa Repertory Theatre. This year,
MRT will present three regional
premieres: the musical Ordinary
Days; the comical Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike; and
for young audiences, Tales of the
South West.
Artistic Director Jeremy Franklin
will direct Ordinary Days, a new
musical by Adam Gwon, which
is described by the composer as:
“When Deb loses her most precious possession—the notes to her
graduate thesis—she unwittingly
starts a chain of events that turns
the ordinary days of four New
Yorkers into something extraordinary. Told through a series of
intricately connected songs and vignettes, Ordinary Days is an original musical about growing up and
enjoying the view.”
Producer and Department Head
Tim Pinnow will direct Vanya
and Sonia and Masha and Spike,
the 2013 Tony Award Winner for
Best Play, by Christopher Durang,
which throws a normally quiet
household into an upheaval of
lust, rivalry, regret, and hope. No
character gets out of this without
looking absolutely ridiculous in
this contemporary comedy.
For young audiences, MRT will
present Tales of the South West,
written by Ruth Cantrell and directed by newly-appointed full time
faculty member, Megan Glynn.
Written in 1997, this charming and
inventive collection of stories includes such gems as “The Rabbit
and the Prairie Dog,” “Leena, the
Javalina,” and “How the Mesa Got
its Name.”
The MRT season will open
on June 12 and run for three weekends, closing on June 29. Specific dates and information can be
found at coloradomesa.edu/theatre/mesarepertorytheatre.html.
In addition, video podcasts will be
released periodically until opening night and will give audiences
a glimpse backstage at MRT. Videos can be found at coloradomesa.
The SOURCE
Show Previews
edu/theatre and on Facebook (facebook.com/MesaRepertoryTheatre).
All productions will be presented in the Moss Performing Arts
Center’s Mesa Experimental Theatre.
“We are excited to be presenting
such new works in the Grand Valley,” said Artistic Director Jeremy
Franklin. “The smallness of our
space allows us to do more experimental pieces. Our goal is to bring
in an audience that not only loves
the older classics, but is also interested in seeing newer, contemporary theatre.”
Auditions are on April 10, 5–8
pm, and are open to community
members, as well as university students. Auditioners should prepare
a one-minute contemporary monologue and/or 32 bars of a contemporary musical theatre song. An
accompanist will be provided, but
please bring your sheet music.
The focus of MRT is on semi-professional theatre producing small,
professional-quality performances
with a cast of actors who are interested in perfecting the craft of live
theatre performance.
This activity is supported by
funding from the Colorado Creative Industries Division, a State
Agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a Federal Agency.

Alternative music has seen its share of legends over the years,
but maybe none more mysterious and revered than The Pixies.
While grunge music was changing the way we listen to music in the
late 80s/early 90s, The Pixies quietly went about business, releasing five albums in five years. College radio loved them; discerning
critics raved about them; and even more popular acts such as Nirvana and Pearl Jam credited them as influences. Kurt Cobain even
went as far as to state openly that his band’s biggest hit, “Smells
Like Teen Spirit,” was a blatant Pixies rip-off.
Despite their growing popularity, The Pixies were faced almost
immediately with one of the biggest problems in rock and roll—
they couldn’t stand each other. Founder and lead singer Frank
Black had one of the most interesting voices and major songwriting
skills of the time, but also he was a complete asshole. He and bassist Kim Deal often fought over the group’s musical direction, and
arguments often led to Deal refusing to perform shows, skipping
rehearsals and other typical rock-and-roll behaviors. Their love for
one another came to a head during a show in Germany, where Black
threw his guitar at Deal mid-performance and walked off stage,
bringing an end to a band that had seemingly just gotten started.
Black went on to record several solo albums, Deal joined her sister and formed The Breeders, and fans were left hung out to dry. But
the music of those five albums lived on. It almost seemed as though
radio and pop culture appreciated The Pixies far more after they
disbanded. After a long stint on the sidelines, Black decided to take
a trip down memory lane and reform the band for a reunion tour
of colleges and festivals. What was originally slated for 15 semiexclusive shows turned into several years of touring, as media and
fans alike welcomed the band back with sold-out venues and high
praises for their performances. Because of the success of these tours,
Black and Deal agreed that the band should start writing new material. While Deal left the band again in June of last year, the band
has released three EPs over the last nine months, all containing new

There’s no better way to introduce this month’s album
picks than by simply stating the fact that March and April
were filled with triumphs, surprises and tons of great
music in the alternative scene. While I’d like to write up
about twenty records that have come across my desk, I’ll
stick with what I feel were the best three, and let you do
your own research on what has been the strongest month
of releases in a long, long time.

Fruita Fat Tire Festival
Fruita Civic Center Park
Ryan Chrys & The Rough Cuts
Name: Ryan Chrys
Age: 30-something
Occupation: musician
Hobbies: guitars and Cadillacs Family: The Rough Cuts
Favorite Restaurant:
Though In-n-Out is cliche, it really is!
Goals: Billboard top 100 single, for starters
Top 5 Bands on your Ipod: Ryan Bingham, Blackberry
Smoke, Shooter Jennings, Rival Sons, Eric Church
I think you have the all-time record for the most performances at The Fat Tire Festival. How did that come
about?
Well, I’ve been a part of multiple projects that have been
associated with the festival; however, this is only my second performance as Ryan Chrys & The Rough Cuts. It’s a
Colorado event and a community event, and the universe
has guided it to come together the way it’s come together;
and I’m thankful for that. There have been many good times,
and now more than ever—they’re getting better! It started,
though, with love, passion and desire, for music and for
mountain biking and giving it your all and taking it over
the edge, like 18 hours of Fruita. The first project I played
in, we played until 3:30 in the morning, as the riders circled
the lake. I still have people thank me for that! It helped them
keep going; as a result, great relationships came out of it.
Which band will be headlining the Saturday, April 26
show?
Ryan Chrys & The Rough Cuts. We call our music Modern Outlaw Country. We’ve had a great year, opening for
Junior Brown, Blackberry Smoke and, just last month, The
Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band. A new record is in the
works, and we’re out to celebrate life and good living with
everyone!
Tell me a bit about each player you have in this band
and why you chose them to be in this band?
Bradley Weaver is on lap-steel and vocals. Brad is an excellent singer/songwriter is his own right, and he is a multiinstrumentalist. Aside from his outstanding musical abili-
I cut the album in Nashville with session players—this
was before the formation of the Rough Cuts. It took a while
to release, but it’s going strong now. Some great stories in
those sessions: We recorded it at Troy Luccketta’s house in
Nashville. Troy is the legendary drummer for the rock band
Tesla. He’s a great guy, too. He was there hanging out during the sessions, and it was a pleasure listening to his stories.
Jake Clayton, the session leader and multi-instrumentalist,
is a virtuoso of all things with strings. They call him “The
Lord of the Strings.” He’s played with everyone from Brad
Paisley to Tanya Tucker. He’s about the nicest guy you could
meet. I did my second album with him in Nashville, as well,
and that comes out in summer/fall of 2014. Keep your eye
out!
I heard you played Evil Knievel Days in Montana. How
big is that festival, and did you meet Evil? It may be one of
the craziest festivals on Earth in terms of daredevils. I think
40,000 or so attend. I’ve played it twice, now—the first time
was the last year Evil was alive, 2006. He and Robbie Knievel
rode their Harleys by our stage while we were playing—I’ll
never forget it. That wasn’t the first time I met Evil, though.
The first time was in a barbershop in Butte, Montana when I
was just a little kid. I didn’t even know who he was, but my
stepdad did and got an autograph for me. I still have it. On
the year that we played, a daredevil set the world record for
the longest jump on a motorcycle—it was totally incredible.
Every year the stunts get crazier, flips on 4-wheelers and
snowmobiles (with wheels on their skis), jumping through
firewalls, human cannonballs and sooo much more. Last
year, there was a man on a tight rope with no nets walking
over the stage as our opening act. It was so damn cool!
What is the largest crowd you played for? Hmmm, I suppose that would be sold-out Red Rocks. I was honored to be
a guitarist for different projects on two separate occasions,
both sold out. Both dreams come true and for which I have
eternally gratitude.
I saw that you did some type of commercial that involved a Pepsi machine—can you elaborate on that unique
experience? That was certainly a trip! I was hired by a prevalent Denver marketing firm that was hired by Pepsi to hype
the Superbowl halftime show. As part of the promo, various
acts would burst out of a smoking Pepsi Machine on 16th
St. Mall in Denver. There was a trap door in the back of the
machine that opened into the back of building. All kinds of
acts came out over the course of the promo—jugglers, breakdancers, sports stars, etc. My slot was the “shredding guitarist.” The machine began to rumble and filled the street with
smoke, the doors flew open, and a Pepsi crew ran out with
my equipment and I appeared and rocked ’em good. No one
knew who would make the final cut for the official video
promo. In the end, out of around 40 acts, I made the cut,
though only for about 3 seconds, heh! It sure was awesome,
though!
ties, he is such a pleasure to work with! He’s professional,
on time and lives his word; he’s passionate about music and
is a key asset to our sound—and he’s a true good ole boy!
Vic Stauffenberg is on drums. Vic is a super-solid and
well-trained drummer; you name it, he can play it. He’s easy
to work with and a pleasure to be around. We’re beyond
lucky to have him behind the kit, and he’s always ready to
do what’s best for the song. He’s our driving force, and he
rocks out harder than anyone in the band. I love rockin’ with
Vic, it’s a great joy.
Paul “Prom King” Lanier on bass, my single greatest influence and the guy that demanded we start a band and then
took me down to buy my first electric guitar. What more can
you say than that? You won’t find many more original bassplaying styles than his—he’s one of kind.
Laura Quam on violin. She’s an incredibly intelligent and
schooled musician. She’s played in so many varieties of projects; she can do anything! She’s such a pleasure to work with,
always comes prepared and takes great pride in her playing.
I’m not sure how we lucked out so much in having her play
with us, but we did—and I never take it for granted.
Josh Skelton on guitar and vocals. Another musician who
can blow your mind with his abilities. For years in the Denver scene, I’d wanted to be in a project with him, he’s SO
good on his instrument. Josh’s licks and style are limitless,
and musicians and music lovers alike are going to love what
he contributes. I’m about the luckiest SOB in the West to have
each of these players in the band, and I mean that truly.
You recently released a new album. Where did you record it? Any good stories come out of those recording sessions?

Music with Randy Raisch Continued from page 16
music.
If you missed these releases, don’t feel bad. The band has decided to combine
them into a full-length titled”Indie Cindy,” hitting record stores later this month.
The question is out there, though. How would the band’s creative forces sound
after 23 years of not writing music together? Would their sound go to new places,
or would it rehash old ills over new ground?
The answer? Both. “Indie Cindy” is undeniably a Pixies record throughout,
with Black’s unique vocal stylings continuing to pair well with the often out-oftune guitars and screeching feedback of bass. There is, though, a refined, refreshing feel to it all. While “What Goes Boom” opens the album in an expected frenzied nature, tracks such as “Greens and Blues,” “Silver Snail” and “Andro Queen”
show a much softer side to The Pixies than even I expected—and I’m one of their
biggest fans.
Also, there were plenty of new tricks up Black’s sleeve. “Bagboy” is a nice fusion of guitar heavy-rock with an almost hip-hop beat; “Blue Eyed Hexe” has a
distinctive underlying Southern rock vibe to it; and”Jamie Bravo” might be the
poppiest punk song the band has ever written—all a pretty far departure from
their usual “spaghetti-western-soundtrack-on-acid” approach. While I enjoyed
the fresh approach the band has taken on this record, there have been plenty of my
peers who have not. Some reviews blast the band for “merely cashing in on their
past success” or “making a mockery of their legacy one guitar line at a time”—but
I have to disagree. Having been a long-time fan of the band, I had a high level of
expectation for this release. The flip-side of that coin is that the music world has
changed quite a bit over the last 20 years and getting another album like “Doolitle simply was not going to happen. Instead, we get more Pixie smusic, new Pixies music, and I, for one, couldn’t be happier about all of it.

Business Profile
Suds Brothers in Fruita
My main goal is to raise my children
properly and be successful at whatever
while being a good role model for others.
Name: Jay Harris
Age: 42
Occupation:
General Manager of Suds Brothers
Hobbies: Golf, mountain biking,
wakeboarding, fishing
Family: I’m father of two, India Rae
and Collin Harris.
Favorite Restaurant:
Juicy Lucy’s in Glenwood!
Goals:
When did you start working at Suds
Brothers?
I started working at Suds March 1,
2013.
How many beers do you brew onsite?
Are those beers sold anywhere else
in the Grand Valley? We brew up to
nine beers on tap and just recently
started off-premise sales.
When did you first start in the restaurant industry?
I started working in the restaurant
business when I was 17, at a place
called the Pantry in Green Mountain
Falls CO.
Do you get a lot of tourists at Suds
Brothers?
Tourism is huge
here in Fruita, since
we’re one of the top
mountain
biking
destinations in the
country. We get people here from all
over the world.
How often do you have live music?
We do open mic every first Wednesday of the month, along with every
fourth Friday of the month—and every
Saturday night.
What is your favorite item on the
menu? My current favorite Item on the
menu is the turkey burger, but I’m sure
that will change when our new menu
comes out and we add a Gyro.
What is the most challenging part
of managing a
restaurant?
Probably the
most challenging part of my
job is just trying
to keep up with
everything I do
at work and in
everyday life.
Being a restaurant
manager
takes a lot of time and commitment.
Do you have any special events or
promotions coming up in the next 60
days?
Here in Fruita, we have several festivals coming up, not to mention Farmers Market and the Fruita Free Concert
Series that happens once a week all
summer. We have Fat Tire coming up,
along with the Headless Chicken Festival, Dinosaur Days, Fall Fest (the Centennial celebration!) and the Riverfront
Concert Series. Fruita has become a
happening little place!
Funny!
“Yesterday New Jersey Governor
Chris Christie was asked about the
slow pace of his weight loss and
said, quote, ‘Rome was not unbuilt in a day.’ In fact, Christie and
Rome have a lot in common: one
was built by Julius Caesar, and the
other was built by LITTLE Caesar.”
–Jimmy Fallon
“The Arizona legislature passed
a bill that would allow business
owners asserting their religious beliefs to deny service to gay customers. Some businesses have already
put up signs that read: ‘Nice shirt,
nice shoes, no service.’”
–Seth Meyers
“Presidents Day, of course, started
out as celebration of Washington’s
birthday. Then someone remembered it was Lincoln’s birthday
on the 12th. So now we celebrate
Washington, Lincoln and all the
other Presidents. I have no idea
how this led to mattress sales. It’s
probably something do with Bill
Clinton.”
–Craig Ferguson
“While celebrating Canada’s defeat
over Sweden in men’s hockey, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford walked into
a fire hydrant, injuring his groin.
It’s really saying something when
this is the least embarrassing thing
Rob Ford has done all year. It’s almost presidential for Rob Ford.”
–Seth Meyers
“The U.S. men’s hockey team beat
Russia on Saturday in a very dramatic shoot-out. That was exciting.
The American team said they’re
thrilled with the win, while the
Russian team is missing.”
–Jimmy Fallon
“The President gave a great State
of the Union address. President
said we must stay vigilant against
foreign threats – and yet – Justin
Bieber remains a free man.”
–Bill Maher
“This week in New Orleans, Hillary
Clinton said she still doesn’t know
if she’s running for president in
2016. Isn’t that unbelievable? With
315 million Americans, what are
the odds she’s the only one in the
country who doesn’t know she’s
running for president in 2016?”
–Jay Leno
“A petition to have Justin Bieber
deported got over 100,000 signatures, which means the White
House now has to legally rule on
it. So finally a chance for Obama to
issue an executive order that both
Republicans and Democrats can
agree on.”
–Jay Leno
“Joe Biden said that Hillary Clinton’s decision to run for president
won’t affect his decision to launch
a campaign. While Hillary says
Biden’s decision to run for president won’t affect her becoming
president.”
–Jimmy Fallon
“Yesterday the Denver Broncos and
the Seattle Seahawks advanced to
the big game, which means this
year’s Super Bowl will have teams
from the two states where recreational marijuana is legal. Or as
pizza delivery men put it, ‘Pray for
us.’”
–Jimmy Fallon
“After the president’s State of the
Union address, there will be three
separate Republican rebuttals.
Obama said, ‘Yeah, I live with two
daughters, my wife and my mother-in-law. Three people telling me
I’m wrong is a holiday.’”
–Jimmy Fallon
“People investigating the Chris
Christie bridge scandal say the
governor could be removed from
office. Critics say moving Christie
from office would involve a threeton construction crane.”
–Conan O’Brien
“New Jersey Chris Christie is
still digging himself out of this
Bridgegate scandal. In fact, some
experts are now saying he could
“Governor Christie was asked,
‘Do you think this will hurt your
chances of being president of the
United States. And he said, ‘Hey,
we’ll close that bridge when we
come to it.’”
–David Letterman
“People are saying Governor
Chris Christie is not fit for office.
So they’ll have to widen the door
again.”
–David Letterman
“People investigating the Chris
Christie bridge scandal say the
governor could be removed from
office. Critics say moving Christie
from office would involve a threeton construction crane.”
–Conan O’Brien
“Somebody at Governor Christie’s
office was involved in a traffic lane
closure at the George Washington
Bridge. It clogged up a major artery, causing a huge traffic jam. But
Christie is denying any personal
involvement. He said he was too
busy clogging his own arteries at
the time.”
–Jay Leno
“Pundits are saying this could hurt
his 2016 presidential campaign.
The ironic thing is this: Now that
Christie is denying everything he
sounds even more presidential,
doesn’t he?”

Just
be
smart so that
everybody
can have a
festive time,
that’s what
Colorado
will also need
to show the
world—that people can have a
good time engaging in their favorite cannabis strains without negative consequences. To all of my fellow Coloradans, let’s remember all
eyes are on the pioneer state. Let’s
represent with pride at this historic
moment in time.
On 4/20, let’s also celebrate the
fact that recreational marijuana has
already brought in close to $420
million to the state’s coffers in the
just first fiscal quarter of 2014.
The first $40 million of tax revenue from pot sales goes specifically toward the construction of new
schools. Improvements on existing
educational centers around the
state will also take top priority. In
my opinion, that’s the best feature
of all the legalization laws
on the books to date.
As with many other
American social
causes or societal
progression, it
takes time for
all parties to adjust to the new
changes.

COLORADO
How is Colorado
preparing
to celebrate that
world-renowned
cannabis holiday
4/20 post legalization? Stoners
far and wide want
to know all the details. I’m sure
people around the world probably
imagine that on 4/20/2014 Coloradans will just be lighting up on city
streets all across the Rocky Mountains. But it won’t happen quite
like that. Although, that would be
an amazing utopian-like day come
true.
With legalization, as with medical marijuana, indulgers still cannot light up in public places and
spaces. Oh, sure, people will rebel
against the law and smoke outside,
but not to the extent of an imagined cannabis utopian haze covering Denver.
“Under Colorado’s Clean Indoor
Air Act, marijuana use is still prohibited in spaces open to the public
despite the passage of Amendment
64.”
Not to worry, though,
there will be events
taking place all
over town where
Expires 4-7-10
you can light up
without fear of
legal
retribution. In other
words, the cops
will probably be
a little more understanding
than
