Nightlife - Greater Denver
The first permanent structure
built in "boomtown Denver" was supposedly a saloon, and the city has been
building on that tradition ever since. Today, there are sports bars, dance bars,
lots of brew pubs, outdoor cafes, English pubs, Old West saloons, art-deco bars,
and a few bars we dont want to discuss here... LoDo, which has been renovated
and upgraded, now attracts all the smart Gen-Xers and other young professionals.
Its trendy nightspots are often noisy and crowded, but if youre looking for
action, this is where its at. Other strips can be found along Broadway, and
along Colfax Avenue.

Crowbar - An American Bar! The vision with this bar was to create a place
for new acts to showcase their talent and is in every way directed toward
just that. For a musician by a musician. We don't steal ideas and we don't
rip off our bands. We are not here trying to get rich. We have already
been blessed with the ability to work with our hobby. Though we love and
watch football and hockey every chance we get, we know we are not a sports
bar. We don't live in a park and don't call ourselves a saloon. This is not
a house though it often seems like we live here. We laugh at the yuppies
that order their foo foo drinks as they bang their heads to something they
cant understand. We are really just a bunch of hell raisin redneck whiskey
and beer drinkers that just want to raise hell in a place where you wont
be thrown out for raisin hell (as long as no one gets hurt). For lack of a
better word, we are more of a cult. A band of gypsies. We are family
before we meet and when we do we already know who we are. We chug beer,
shoot whiskey and death chargers til the law says no more. We shotgun
Fosters on stage cause damn it, it makes people puke. We are not the
pretty, fortunate sons of the wealthy. We are slaves day by day, but not
here. In the Crowbar we are all kings and all equals. We know who we are
because damn it, WE ARE AMERICANS!"
