  • Favorite Thing: This is a cool road to bike up (steep and long) known as Fillmore West. Also, just to the right of this picture is the Best Western Palmer House (hotel).

  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: See the sunset. There is little more beautiful than the sun setting behind Pike's Peak, and the rest of the mountains, so be sure to take time here to watch that. If possible, one of the best sunrise photos I have even gotten was here in COS, so get up early and see that too.

  • Fondest Memory: I used to do sound for a square dance/contra club in town (and still will, if asked). They had multiple bands come it to play. It was really fun. At first, I just did the sound, then after going for a little while, danced with them. Much English contra, and good old squares. Let me tell you a little something about Do-si-dos... no, won't bore you with that. Anyway, hence the name Dancin' Sound Man.
    So, if you have any audio production needs, in Colorado Springs or Denver or Pueblo, email me!
    One of my favorite speakers: Cerwin Vega T36-750

     John, the Three Thieves Restaurant is the best steakhouse in town IMHO. Check it out the next time you're there. And in Denver, check out Casa Bonita.
