PICK OF THE WEEK: Cracker - Thursday & Friday, March 29th & 30th - The Soiled Dove Underground, Denver, CO

Why You Should Go: David Lowery and Cracker have been rocking everything from mainstream radio to college burnouts for more than 15 years. Their brand of fuzzed out Alt-Country has paved the way for countless other bands to take their stab at fame.

According to Wikipedia (so take this with a grain of salt), Cracker claims that they are the only band ever to open for both The Ramones and The Grateful Dead. Take that for whatever it is worth, but it definately gives creedance to the ecclectic nature of their music.

The Soiled Dove should be a great venue to catch these veteran rockers doing their thing. After playing rooms like The Gothic and The Bluebird for years, Lowery and company have decided to play smaller venues in town in recent years. A year and a half ago they jammed themselves onto the tiny stage of The Lions Lair and this time it is the more roomy and much less seedy Soiled Dove.

Make your plans soon, the tickets are going fast!
