As I stood in a short queue at the Oriental Theater, I almost couldn t believe I wasn t dreaming. After over a year of not being able to attend any concerts, I was waiting to see local psych-folk band the Copper Children perform.
I ve spent much of the past year alternately kicking myself for the shows I chose not to see before the pandemic put the kibosh on live music and making a never-ending wish list of acts I’d like to see when I have the chance again. So when I got the offer to write about a live show in Denver, I jumped at it, though a big part of me was hesitant. Was it really safe or responsible to see live music when people in Colorado are dying each week because of COVID-19?
