Last night I went out to dinner and a show in boulder. It was a nice time. Dinner was at: Cafe Gondlier where they had some not too bad (and very nicely priced) homemade spagetthi. Then it was over to the Boulder Theatre for the show. I haven't ever been to a show there, but it's a pretty nice venue. Big bar in the middle, a bit of seating at tables and the rest standing room.

Erin Mckeown was the opening act. She wasn't bad. She had a few songs that I thought were really good, and a number that were kinda just blah. She tried one song that was a "never before played" one, and it started out very cool, and then sort of petered out. Amazingly, its worth noting that the show was supposed to start at 8pm, and it DID! That never happens anymore, and I was very happy it did.

The main act was The Waifs They were quite good. They played for about an hour and a half. They had a nice mix of louder rocking songs, quiet lounge type songs, and others. They all had very nifty aussie accents and interacted with the crowd quite well. I picked up their 2 cd live set. If they are passing near you, they are worth seeing.
