Otherwise Engaged: The Yawpers

It is an unfortunate reality for the serious concertgoer that on occasion, there will be more than one show on any given night that you really, really, REALLY wanna go to. Since the vast majority of us don't own a time machine, nor have the ability to either clone ourselves or split ourselves in half (or thirds or quarters depending on the night in question), this tends to present a problem. Difficult decisions are made based on a variety of variables (perhaps some of you even make lists of pros and cons), and ultimately, a show is chosen. But those other shows are still gonna be killer, and I'd like to give a little face time to the shows that, while I can't go myself, are still highly recommended.

Alas and alack, and more than a little bit of woe is me, because I shan't be able to get to the Rock & Roll Hotel this evening to see Denver's Rocky Mountain high-rolling, blues rocking machine known as The Yawpers. Given how the band cavorts on record, I can only imagine how they tear up a stage. Be sure to lend them your ear, and if you're in the DC metro, you might should go check these fellas out.
