MrChupacabra Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 After 4 months of living in a city i want absolutely nothing to do with, i flew out to Denver this week and decided to sign a lease for a place today. To be honest, I don't even really know that much about Denver outside of the massive amount of driving around i've done all week and the fact that there are a shit load of great mountains relatively close by for me to snowboard at. But after living in the midwest for my entire life, i figure its time for a change of scenery, and i got a really good deal on an apartment i'm psyched on, which is as good a reason as any to move out here. So, as many of us do when visiting a city or moving, i'm coming to the folks of 12oz to point me in the direction of bars, record shops, venues, punk houses, restaurants, places to visit outside of the city, etc. I'm only 2 blocks off of Colfax, and less than a mile away from the capital, so i'll have easy access to pretty much anywhere be it via car, bike, bus, walking, etc. Also, i searched for other Denver threads and the information was minimal and outdated, so spare the "use the search button, you faggot" comments. Or bring them on, since its a free bump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrChupacabra Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 To specify, i've lived in Minneapolis my whole life until the past 4 months. So, its not like i'm some farmer's son from bumblefuck Iowa who has no idea what to do in a big city. If that makes any difference in what people recommend.

Poesia [ ] T Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 On a serious note i wouldnt be able to find Indianapolis on any map i thought it was a made up city for awhile. My guess would somewhere near Minnesota, or maybe in Indiana. /Dumber than a 5th grader oneski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bahleediddy Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 . just sayin, being from the midwest i would never have put colorado in middle america. it seems more west coast once i got out here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalashnikov Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I might be going out there next month. Well for a day, then we're supposed to be going into the high country to check out the mountains and snowboarding shit. (I don't snowboard, but my friends do; therefore I'll be observing everyone fall on their ass from the comfort of the bar). I realize this does not help you at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of those states that you forget even exists till you hear somebody say it's name. Then you're like "damn... where the fuck is Minnesota even at?"

Kalashnikov Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 This map is a geography fail. Aspen is west of Denver, not south of Colorado Springs. And isn't the Grand Canyon in the NW part of Arizona? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KITTENS Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Denver had a really sick art community at the moment. For records go to jerrys on colfax, wax trax on 13th, and the new twist and shout/tattered cover on the fax. thats a really great book music spot. Red and black or something is also cool so I have heard. There are three landmark theaters near you and they all rule. The mayan is the best and everyone and they moms is up in sputnik, so fuck that joint. infinite fun dives on the fax and near there, bar bar for stupid metal fun. warehouses are big out there, and the rule/suck depending on how you feel that night. you can still smoke at paris on the platte. the nuggets are ultimate and mello has a smile that kills millions. larimer/medolark/highdive/ etc. first friday on sante fe is really tight. lots of sick legals though denver just lost one of the oldest running legals in the country. super sad. clearly i love the city and i miss it every day. i grew up there, and its a super fun time with more than you'd think. good museums too. i miss it so! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KITTENS Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 also welcome to the best weed and beer you have ever had. unless you have lived in Amsterdam/Belgium/ heaven go to Great Divide Brewery and also try Dales Pale Ale at a liquor spot. Hit up any dude named robert for amazing weed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feed Yer Ego Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 i've been/lived all over half way around the world in and out of denver since 2001 i get fed up sometimes but i don't know where else i would move one of the few things that kills me tho, no other cities close enough when you really need to break out. just mountains, burbs, college towns and nothing. all of those are fun tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
