Punch Brothers (featuring Chris Thile)

Concert Reviews

Thoughts on Punch Brothers at Chautauqua in Boulder

The Chautauqua facility was built in 1898 as a community focused on education and culture. So it makes a perfect setting for the Punch Brothers: music with a strong base in classical and bluegrass genres balanced by innovation and embracing of new musical styles (they covered radiohead after all).

Punch Brothers - P-Bingo Rocks My Socks

I have mixed feelings on this concert.

Punch Brothers Kick Ass

On the one hand, the music was hot. Not just hot, but hot. They played all sorts of great things including some old school music by Bach and Mozart. They brought in Sometymes Why on a few songs, which was suitably amazing, including a part where Gabe Witcher sang a bass line since Paul Kowert was gone for the night. Sheriff Uncle Bob, the Sheriff of Good Times, lead the group on two songs, and Pickle's Song was amazing, as expected.

Seats: 
we stood at the back at first, then got seats _right_up_front_.
