A Race Across the Sky

Doors Open at 6:00pm / Show STARTS at 7:00pm
$7
At 10,000+ feet, against the misty backdrop of a former mining town, Leadville, Colorado, 1228 cyclists line the starting line. For many, it will be the most difficult race of their lives. For some, a bragging right to say they raced alongside the best in the world. Some imagine victory. Most hope only to finish. But everyone will count. A race that started 25 years ago as a running race to drive tourism in Leadville now has 1000+ competitors, many of them the world’s most elite cyclists. The Leadville Trail 100 "Race Across the Sky" Mountain Bike Race is 100 grueling miles, over 14,000 vertical feet of climbing, some two miles above sea level, through extreme climate changes ranging from heat to hail, from rain to snow.

October
Straight No Chaser
October 28, 2010
Doors Open at 7:00pm / Show STARTS at 8:00pm
$29.50 to $35.50
"If the phrase "male a cappella group" conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses... think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) are neither strait-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. As original member Randy Stine comments, "We take the music very seriously; we just don’t take ourselves too seriously." In the process, they are reinventing the idea of a cappella on the modern pop landscape."
