Do303 Has Landed! Come Celebrate This Saturday!

We have been part of the DoStuff family for many years, stemming from our many adventures over the past years in Austin, Texas with the Do512 Crew (since 2006-2007). It has always been our go to guide for anything cool happening in that city when we visit, from SXSW to Austin City Limits Music Festival. After a couple years of planning and rumored plans of them arriving in The Mile High City, we finally get to experience one of the coolest and reliable (to-do) guides for our city and Boulder.

What are you going to do tonight?

Built on the foundation of local industry experts working together in the community, Do303's mission is to help people find fun, through curated event listings and guides to the best stuff going on. But we're much more than that, and we'd like for you to celebrate with us.

Do303's intention is to help you have the best night of your life. We’ll do that by connecting Denver and Boulder locals with the best music, food, drink, and nightlife events aggregated and curated on our platform, engaging locals through online, social, and daily emails serving up the best stuff to do each day of the week.

We invite you to celebrate the launch of Do303 on Mar. 3 at 730PM at Summit Music Hall. Do303 is proud to present an evening of music, food, drinks, giveaways and endless, epic entertainment. This event is free with RSVP here.

To stay in the know in Denver, download the DoStuff app, check out our website, follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter - and sign up for our Daily Emails to find out about breaking show announcements, exclusive party invites, and of course - everything going on tonight.

“Algorithms can’t tell you what to do tonight. You need a local who knows the scene.”       - TechCrunch
"The front range offers so many opportunities for people to get out and experience life at different angles.  I think Do303 is a chance to really showcase all of those things; to create moments for people. Our main priority is to help people discover something new, whether it’s music, art, the mountains, or a new chef in town....and Do303 will do just that. It connects people with the experiences that they love." – Peter Wallace, GM
“All too often I’m asked, "What are we doing tonight?” and all too often, I don’t have the answer. My partners and I found out about DoStuff Media and after using Do512 in Austin last year, we had to bring this technology to Denver and Boulder. We want to make it easy for people to find out about concerts, happy hours, comedy and other events with one easy click. We live in one of the best markets in the country and we look forward to Do303 becoming a big part of this incredible and progressive community.”  - Brian Schwartz, Partner

Music | DeVothcka | The Boulder Theater | October 30 | Photo Essay

Devotchka donned face paint and top hats last night at the Boulder Theater for their annual Halloween show. As part of the long lasting tradition, they performed alongside beautiful aerial dancers and other spooky characters for some songs. Local Colorado acts Gypsy Moon and Shel opened the show. If you missed out on the celebration last night, you can catch the fun for their second night, tonight, at the Boulder Theater.

Halloween at the Bluebird Theater: Air Dubai, The Epilogues, Monroe Monroe, ManCub


All Hallows Eve in the Mile High City was pretty rockin’ this year despite it falling on a Monday night. While many people chose to celebrate over the weekend, those interested in keeping their festivities local couldn’t have asked for a better line up than at The Bluebird Theatre on Monday night. Air Dubai, The Epilogues, Monroe Monroe, and ManCub all came out in full “cape and cowl”, ready to rock the east end of Colfax and help their fans celebrate Halloween.

This show was the grand finale to a four-day mini tour hosted and co-headlined by Air Dubai and The Epilogues, hitting each end of the state and featuring different acts from the respective areas as they went. With In The Whale, The Photo Atlas, My Body Sings Electric, and Monroe Monroe all being featured as main support to the co-headliners on separate nights, it was nearly impossible to pick a night you wouldn’t love to attend. Monday night went off without a hitch, as the costume-adorned audience found the Bluebird’s capacity at a perfect medium: packed full of fans, but not crowded to the point where it was uncomfortable. With ManCub opening the night with their distinct brand of techno-electronic beats, and Monroe Monroe following them with their Indie-punk energy, the crowd was obviously warmed up and excited to see The Epilogues take the stage at 9:30.

In their typical style, the band played a generous mix of new and old favorites like “King Arthur”, “Futurebox”, and “The World is Yours”. Fans were excited to hear lead singer Chris Heckman announce that their new music video for their song “The Fallout” will be released “very, very soon”. The Bluebird went wild as they finished their set with their radio single “Hunting Season”, made famous by it’s airplay from local radio station KTCL and their “Local’s Only” segment. Fans seemed very happy with the set, as the band also seemed happy to finally be home after a long, and fun weekend.

Air Dubai finished out the evening with fun for both new and old fans. Celebrating the release of their newest EP, “Day Escape” which just hit stores this past week (available online at www.airdubaimusic.com/ or on iTunes), the crowd was treated to a great mix of fan favorites like “Lasers”, “Modern Gold”, “Warm Days”, and“I Know How”, as well as new tracks like “Summer Solstice”, “Lights Out”, and “Still Searching”. Their certainly something new happening with tracks found on “Day Escape”. It might be the fact that all but one song on this new CD was recorded in California this past August, but in my opinion there’s a bit of a vintage, summery vibe to these tracks, and I LOVE it. Check out Castro’s review of the record -> HERE <-  Overall, this was one of the stronger sets I’ve seen Air Dubai play, probably thanks to the newest tunes added to the setlist. The band sounded on top of their game, and didn’t seem to stutter over any new material. Dressed like The Wiggles, the band gave the crowd an amazing set from beginning to end, closing with their radio single “restless Youth”. 


Currently The Epilogues don’t have any tour/show dates listed on any of their websites, so be sure to “like” them on Facebook to keep updated. Air Dubai is playing a big show November 19th at The Fox Theatre in Boulder. Be sure to grab tickets soon, as the band just announced a free copy of their new EP "Day Escape" with an e-mailed proof of purchase to their Boulder show! Hope to see you all out there showing Denver’s artists some love!

Spotlight: The Amends from Boulder, CO

here

The Amends have a fast-paced traditional rock-and-roll style with a little bit of an indie twist. They list such influences as the White Stripes and Bob Dylan. Their melodic piano and guitar lines carry their songs while the percussion section drives the pace and the pounding bass line knits the three together.  You can't help but dance to the aptly named 'Dance' (click to listen) Ignore the lyrics and The Amends are a jam band you won't be able to resist rocking out to. Stop and listen closer and you'll recognize the raw emotion written into each verse. 'Hey Regina' is a great example.  

I'll be keeping an eye on their website, as well as their show calendar. You can catch them next at D-Note on July 1st.
