After meeting up in LA we flew to Denver and spent the night there. After 48 hours without sleep it certainly was great to not be upright for a while.
We rehearsed after breakfast and then headed out to get our phones hooked up. Took way longer than we wanted or expected. The guy behind the counter requested a photo with Richard because he thought our Bari looked like Brett Favre, Green Bay Packers legend.
Onto the show after a very late lunch where we were met by George, member of International quartet gold medalists Classic Collection, who welcomed us and showed us around.
Out back were Stormfront rehearsing and sounding awesome. We were sharing a changing room with McPhly, a young quartet who were coming into the upcoming contest ranked 11. They also were sounding amazing. We were feeling very privileged to be sharing the stage withese guys and very grateful to have the opportunity for a hit- out like this before Anaheim.
Backstage everyone was incredibly friendly and really made us feel welcome.
The lineup for the show was:
- Sound of the Rockies
- McPhly
- Alliance
- Storm Front
- INTERMISSION
- McPhly
- Storm Front
- Alliance
- Sound of the Rockies
It was a full house and the crowd was incredible. Very vocal and very supportive. We did a decent job of our songs and the crowd seemed to especially like our Aussie set. Our first performance in front of a US crowd done. What an experience!
We headed to the afterglow after the show at a local restaurant. We got to mix and mingle with the guys and have a meal and share some laughs and songs.
We were driving to Estes Park to meet up with our coach Eddie Martinez that night so didn’t stay too long. We arrived at the cabin about 2am and finally got bed at about 4am after catching up With Eddie.
