BornToBeWildTour - Steppenwolf Revisited
Get Your Motor Runnin'... Oh What A Show!
What can you say about a band that takes you on a magic carpet ride and makes you believe you really were born to be wild! With 30 million records sold, 28 albums, and 16 Top 40 hits, The Born To Be Wild Tour featuring original members of the classic rock bands Steppenwolf and Pegasus had a catalog of music that took us on an action-packed journey down memory lane. It was nothing but that 60's and 70's rock we all know and love. With a mix of original and new members, the Born To Be Wild Tour - Steppenwolf Revisited, delivered on all the songs we remember, all the classic hits including: Born to be Wild, Magic Carpet Ride, Pusher, Rock Me, Hey Lawdy Mama, Snow Blind Friend, Who Needs Ya, Jupiter's Child, Ride With Me and Its Never Too Late. My favorite was Whisper. I swear every song was like listening to the AM radio dial of yesterday
Los Lonely Boys
Texican Rock'n Roll band Los Lonely Boys rocked the house at the Colorado State Fair. The Brothers Garza - Henry, Jojo and Ringo came out and played a high energy set that showcased their exceptional musical abilities.
It's stunning to say the least, the sound three brothers can produce with just one guitar, one bass and one drum kit. Henry is without a doubt one of the best guitar players out there. When he plays the electric guitar he closes his eyes and gets lost in a zone and the results are amazing. You can really feel his passion. His talent is right up there with such greats as Carlos Santana, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Clapton. Jojo jams on the bass
and has a really great rapore with the audience and Ringo, WOW... I've never seen a drummer play the drums with a drumstick in his right hand, the second stick in his mouth while playing the bongos with his left hand. He can certainly keep a beat!
Jake Owen
Oh What A Show!
Jake Owen was a highlight of the Colorado State Fair this year. When he walked on stage, the whole place came alive. His energy was on full blast from start to finish! The stage was set up to mimic a beach, complete with palm trees and a tiki bar. It was the perfect setting for his first song "Beachin'", and just like a wave he captured his audience and never let go. The beach party had begun!
He engaged the audience throughout the entire show.
At one point he left the stage to walk, sing and take a few selfies among the stands with the fans. While singing "Alone With You" he breaks into Happy Birthday for a young woman who was celebrating her 18th birthday. He invited her and all her guest to come up to the tiki bar for the show and believe it or not Jake was just getting the party started.
Featured Artist
Chase Rice
The Colorado State Fair is host to the PCRA Ram Rodeo, some Monster Trucks, a Demolition Derby and some great concerts. Tonight we were not disappointed when the devastatingly handsome Chase Rice took the stage. He immediately began to charm the crowd with the cool, rock infused tune, "Do It Like This". To further raise the heart rates of the ladies, Chase began singing, "50 Shades Of Crazy", a crowd favorite, which he delivered in a smoldering, seductive style. As he prowled the length of the stage you could feel the exhilaration of the crowd, as they were entranced with his smooth, flirtatious style.
His setlist included "Do It Like This", '50 Shades Of Crazy",
"I Like Drinking",
"We Goin' Out",
"U Turn", "How She Rolls",
"Carolina Can",
"Gonna Wanna Tonight",
"Jack Daniels & Jesus"
and everyone's favorite
"Ready Set Roll"!
Jerrod Niemann
Lover, Lover..
Jerrod Niemann hit the stage running. Carrying a T-Shirt that read Real Women Drink Beer he picked a fan and threw it to her, thereby setting the pace for the entire show. There was tons of energy, playfulness, and smiling on stage...and it looked like Jerrod was having as good a time as the audience was. You can tell this man was a crowd pleaser! He brought
passion and lots of fun to the show. He was there to throw a party and throw a party he did!
As a performer, Niemann took the crowd's emotions on a never-ending roller coaster ride as he belted out all the songs the fans wanted to hear; "Lover, Lover", "Drink To That All Night", "One More Drinking Song", "Buzz Back Girl", "They Should Have Named You Cocaine", "Donkey" and even his newest single "Blue Bandana. The atmosphere was one of good clean fun. Jerrod has a great voice, a lot of fun songs, and when he put them all together it made for a fantastic night.
Tracy Lawrence
Tracy Lawrence kicked off the Colorado State fair with thousands of fans. From the minute he said hello to the audience, Lawrence had them smiling with eager anticipation. The "Paint Me a Birmingham" singer amply demonstrated song after song that he is in complete control as he delivered a solid performance simply by playing his music.
Tracy Lawrence is one of those rare timeless performer who hasn't lost any of his unique vocal sound over the years. If anything, it seems he's getting better with age. His opening numbers "Speed Of A Fool",
"Renegades, Rebels and Rogues" and
"Better Man, Better Off" set the tone for the evening; relaxed with an overall great feeling. Crowd favorites were "Texas Tornado", "Alibis" and of course "Paint Me a Birmingham".
Keith Urban - Raise 'Em Up
Oh What A Show!
Cheyenne Frontier Days ended with a bang as Keith Urban brings the party front and center.
His "Raise 'Em Up" Tour was filled with fun and lots of surprises. He held a contest to find someone to help him sing "We Were Us" his duet with Miranda Lambert and pulled some fans out of the crowd to help him sing "Raise 'Em Up" his duet with Eric Church. If that wasn't enough to excite, while in the audience he signed his guitar and gave it to a lucky fan. All in all it was quite the show!
Urban hit the stage with energy and left the crowd in a sea of screams and cheers. Coming out strong with "Long Hot Summer" he just continued
blasting the eager crowd with
"Where The Blacktop Ends",
"Somewhere In My Car",
"Raining On Sunday",
"You're My Better Half",
"I Told You So",
"Sweet Thing",
"John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16". Every song was super charged by his insane guitar skills! He is so alive on the stage. He never gave less than a hundred percent the entire performance. It was as if he were doing each song just for YOU.
Toby Keith
Good Times & Pick Up Lines
Few entertainers have reached the iconic status of Toby Keith. As he takes to the stage with that famed red solo cup clipped to his mic stand the crowd cheers wildly. The venue is packed wall to wall with fans ready to sing along to their favorite hits. It becomes obvious; Toby Keith is a massivly popular act!
His playful party songs "I Love This Bar", "Beer For My Horses" and Red Solo Cup, had people toasting with their cups raised high shouting out the chorus. Other standouts included such hits as "Weed With Willie", "Who's Your Daddy", "Should've Been A Cowboy", "I Wanna Talk About Me", "How Do You Like me now", "American Soldier" and "Courtesy Of The Red, White and Blue". All of which appeared to be among crowd favorites.
Oh Play Me Some Mountain Music...
The Alabama concert at Cheyenne Frontier Days was a wonderful throwback to a day gone by. The weather was perfect and the band was spot on, the harmonies great. Opening with "If You're Gonna Play in Texas" Alabama rocked the house right out of the get-go with their distinct musical sound and timeless classics that everybody is familiar with. It's those songs that demonstrates why they are in the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. They are Country Royalty!
Alabama has a lot of fans even after 40 years.
With Randy Owen, still jumping and dancing around on stage, Jeff Cook still rockin' on his guitar and the fiddle and Teddy Gentry still strumming his bass guitar it's not hard to understand why! They never disappoint. They are a bunch of good ole' country boys that have stayed true to themselves and their fans over the years.
Montgomery Gentry
Featured Artist
Montgomery Gentry delivered! The duo of Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry and their band sounded great. These two Kentucky Born and Bred boys share an incredible chemistry and it was wonderful to watch. It was truly a fun evening. A high energy concert performed by musicians with many talents.
In what appeared to be effortless for them, they had the whole place getting down with some great country music.
After a four year absence the duo finally released new music titled "Folks Like Us". Fans everywhere were excited. We were treated to the live version of "Folks Like Us" during the show and it amazed me how many of the fans already had the words down!
This year's entertainment at Cheyenne Frontier Days is better than ever with endless concerts and rodeos. Imagine if you will a cool July evening, just perfect for a concert. Tonight's schedule, long time country star, Trace Adkins, a man who is no stranger to entertaining the masses.
Adkins appears wearing a dark cowboy hat with the brim pulled low, in tight wrangler jeans. Although he is one rugged individual, at a whopping 6'6", he is still a gentle giant. He is steeped in traditional country and well-suited to the genre. Standing tall and straight at the center of the stage, Adkins instantly takes complete control of the audience.
His setlist included such hits as "Whup A Man's Ass", "(This Ain't) No Thinking Thing", "There's A Girl In Texas", "One Hot Mama", "You're Gonna Miss This" and "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk". But it didn't matter what song Trace was performing the music was amazing and the crowd totally into the concert. Everyone was having a great time!
Aerosmith - Blue Army Tour
Oh What A Show!
The Blue Army Tour had Aerosmith and about 18,000 fans partying at Cheyenne Frontier Days and oh what a party it was! The adrenaline rush just swept you away...
Opening with "Saddle" and immediately following with "Elevator" proved that Aerosmith is still at the top of their game and still having one helluva good time. They totally rocked the stage! Watching and listening to the band perform "Cryin'" is pure narcotic pleasure and definitely a crowd favorite.
The gorgeous single "Miss A Thing" had the crowd swaying back and forth while "Dude" had everyone on their feet!
Tyler amply demonstrated song after song that his biggest asset; his vocals, are still full-bodied giving every song that classic signature style, that unique 'Aerosmith Sound' that we all know and love. He was commanding and confident throughout the entire set and while Steven Tyler was showing off his Rock n' Roll style, Joe Perry showed off his mad skills...
Kinsey Sadler
Rising Star
Here's what I know. This woman can sing, sing, and sing! OMG what a phenomenal voice! Powerful and gritty with a Gretchen Wilson feel to her. Beautiful and edgy, she knows how to control the show! Her band is top notch and together they seem to have a lot of fun while putting on a great concert. To say Kinsey is an energetic performer is putting it mildly. She doesn't stop. Just like the energizer bunny she just keeps on going, giving no less than 150%. There is no doubt in my mind that she will Rock N' Roll you until you love her.
I saw her performance at the Cuchara Country Music Festival and I was instantly a fan. This gal from Oklahoma connects with people. She proves beyond a doubt, that Country Can ROCK! She started the night rockin' country style and didn't let up. Her set showcased her off-beat, powerful songwriting with "That's How I Roll", "The Young And The Restless", "Bikini Body" and more, all of which gave her voice ample times to shine. Her singing was warm and oh so beautiful, stoking an earthy intimacy as she sang the crowd pleaser "Sometimes I Forget".
Cuchara Country Music Fest
Oh What A Show!
The Historic Cuchara Village in Southern Colorado is situated on the eastern slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in the heart of the Cucharas River Valley. Surrounded by the San Isabel National Forest and boasting huge Ponderosa pines as a backdrop, this little Western Town is host to the 4th annual Cuchara Country Music Festival. This year's artists were: Craig Morgan, Charley Jenkins, Kinsey Sadler, Lusas Hoge, Jessie Funk and Cappton Reid. It was a gloomy day for the most part but a little rain, a little thunder, a little lightning, a little sun and a whole lot of clouds couldn't and wouldn't stop the fans or the show!
The Festival opened with Cappton Reid a Country/Classic Rock band consisting of Tony Cappelucci, Bruce Walton and Tom Reid. He and his band were the perfect kickoff for the event. They got the crowd warmed up and ready to party!
Garth Brooks World Tour
Wednesday night Garth Brooks kicked off the first of nine shows at the Pepsi Center and what a kick-off it was. It's been almost two decades since he played Denver making these some of the most highly anticipated shows of the year for the Mile High City. The fans were standing even before Garth appeared as a giant timepeice began a countdown, but when he did... he turned a crowd of nearly 20,000 into a screaming, singing, arm-pumping mass. He completely locked in with the audience. What a beautiful sight to see!
Opening with "Man Against Machine" and immediately following with "Rodeo" set the tone for a terrific evening of solid entertainment. Never for one second did he lose momentum as he belted out "Two Of A Kind (Workin' on a Full House)", "The Beaches Of Cheyenne", and "The River". He had the fans clapping, singing and swaying along to every beat as he sang "Two Pina Coladas", "Papa Loves Mama" and "Ain't Going Down ('Til The Sun Comes Up)". Next up... "Unanswered Prayers"...
Eric Church - The Outsiders
Oh What A Show!
Eric Church brought his own kind of magic to the Mile High City as The Outsiders World Tour made a stop at the Pepsi Center. Eric took the stage around 9:00pm, no grand entrance, no tricks. He just casually walked stage. Dressed in jeans, boots, t-shirt and his ever-present mirrored aviator sunglasses giving him that sexy rock-star swagger; he delivered one of the best live shows going. His connection with his audience was genuine
but it was clear to the thousands of fans that this wasn't just any concert, this is an act we dont see often and this was the show we've been dying to see for months.
From the first chord to the last chord, we were captivated.
What can I say. Eric Church was flawless. The setlist started with, The Outsiders, and delved directly into his second song Creepin', (a huge fan favorite) and then "Guys Like Me". The crowd already on their feet couldn't sing loud enough! Truth is, no matter what he was performing he has the ability to make the audience feel something.
Brantley Gilbert
Oh What A Show!
The concert was everything fans expected. From the moment he stepped onto the stage the place turned into a huge party.
Gilbert satisfied fans with every song he sang. "Bottoms Up" and "Small Town Throwdown", had the fans on their feet, while his songs "Dirt Road Anthem" and "My Kinda Party" (massive hits for superstar Jason Aldean) was sung by the entire audience. It was a helluva party that's for sure! He got the crowd cheering to "Read Me My Rights" and his voice, barely a whisper, with "Grown Ass Man" brought a hush that is rarely seen.
What can I say... Brantley Gilbert is one sexy guy with some major swagger, but his voice backs all of that up and then some! A non-stop performer, high energy, attention grabber who he knows how to draw every last person in the audience into his music.
Brantley Gilbert rocked his ass off! He knows what his fans like and gives it in spades.
Tim Montana and the Shrednecks
Rising Stars
This Beard Came Here To Party...and so did we!
While performing in support of country sensation Brantley Gilbert's tour, Tim Montana and the Shrednecks wow'd a packed house and an enthusiastic crowd. They were a total crowd-pleaser.
They rocked the house with their songs "Low Class", "Glass And chicken Wire", "Burn", "Things That I Love", "Shredneck USA", and their hit and the Boston Red Sox's Anthem ~ "This Beard Came Here To Party" (co-written with ZZ Tops Billy Gibbons).
They are the newest and coolest band in the business with their own style, sound, and energy. They are relaxed and smooth and master musicians as well. Their brand of country rock will reasonate with you long after their performance. I went home and downloaded their music. They were that good! I can't wait for their first full length album.
Prepare For Hell...
Korn came out and kicked the crowd's ass from start to finish!
They had everyone at the Colorado Event Center riled up as soon as the lights went dim. Moments later when the band hit the stage the party started and never stopped. Their sound was perfect; Loud, Clear and Rich. It was high energy with a non-stop pace. Jonathan Davis has such a great voice and he has so much charisma.
One of my favorite part of the night was hearing "Hater" live for the first time, I absolutely love that song and my second favorite of the night was seeing
Brian "Head" Welch back with the band. He was amazing. They all were.
They were very wild and consistant. They know how to rock, that's for sure. The best part of a live concert is the vibe and energy that flows in the crowd and the energy at a Korn concert is off the charts!
Gabriel Iglesias AKA... Fluffy
Laughter Through Unity
Comedian Gabrial Iglesias AKA Fluffy, rocked the Colorado State Fair Event Center (a total sell out) with his Laughter Through Unity Tour.
His interaction with the crowd really made the night one to remember.
He was absolutely hilarious.
His comedy is honest, intelligent, refreshing, and fun all at the same time!
His good friend Martin (Marteen) Moreno was the Master of Ceremonies and also a part of the opening act who brought his own brand of humor to the show as did the second opener Larry Omaha. They did a great job getting the audience pumped up for Gabriel and
when Gabriel took the stage he OWNED IT! He knew his audience and it played to his strength. "I love the air quality here you can feel the oxygen, he said of the Colorado atmosphere compared to a smoggy Los Angeles. You take a deep breath and say, I can do math.
Tony Orlando
Certain artists just seem to have an innate sense of what it takes to please an audience. Tony Orlando is one of those artists.
He started his show with an oldie but a goodie; "Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree". It was one of Tony's biggest hits and a helluva way to kick start a night of pure entertainment. With an old school charm he drew the audience in with ease and skill as only he can. Rolling right into "Knock Three Times" and "Candida" made it almost intimidating being in front of a living legend.
Tony's voice was pitch perfect. He had great range, filled with emotion and control. The word smooth comes to mind. His energy was wonderful, he fully engaged the audience, his smile lit up the venue and what else can I say, he is an incredible performer... at any age! It's hard to believe he was born in 1944.
The Turtles
Happy Together Tour
The Happy Together tour was a fun time, with a mix of 60s and 70s pop and rock. The artist on this tour were Mitch Ryder (and the Detroit Wheels), Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad, Chuch Negron from Three Dog Night, and of course vocalists Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman, better known as Flo and Eddie of The Turtles.
All the acts in the show are great fun and make you smile,laugh and you can't help but sing-along.
Mitch Ryder was the opening singer, with great enery who still has a great voice. His setlist included; Little Latin Lupe Lu,
Jenny Take A Ride, Sock It To Me Baby,
Too Many Fish In The Sea & Three Little Fishes, Devil With A Blue Dress & Good Golly Miss Molly. Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad was second in the lineup and for us rockers totally stole the show...
Chris Young
If you want a concert that lifts you up, makes you smile, puts you in a great mood, then make sure you find your way to a Chris Young concert! It's a real crowd pleaser.
Here's a guy who genuinely seems excited to be performing.
He has great energy, a great smile and he is so appreciative of the fans. It's a winning combination.
Chris is very interactive with his audience making sure everyone feels in the zone. He performes a variety of music: from his older hits to songs from his new album "A.M.", to a fantastic cover of ZZ Top "Sharp Dressed Man" where he introduces his band....
Clay Walker
Right out of the chute Clay Walker kicked off the Colorado State Fair with a bang. It wasn't his undeniable likeability, it wasn't his old school country charm or even the confetti canons, it was simply some great music sung by a country singer with a great voice. It was the upbeat tempo's, the beautiful ballads and the always fun, ever popular crowd sing-a-longs.
Clay delivered throughout his entire set. His crowd pleasing hits included:
If I Could Make a Living,
When She's Good, She's Good,
Dreaming With My Eyes Open,
'Fore She Was Mama,
Rumor Has It,
She Won't Be Lonely Long,
This Woman and This Man,
Then What and more.
Clay's voice is honest and natural. His songs are meaningful with touching lyrics with memorable melodies...
Kid Rock
Oh What A Show!
So how does one describe a Kid Rock concert? I've said this before and I'll say it again. He's pure style, pure energy and pure entertainment! He's ferocious, beautiful, brilliant, exciting, entertaining, talented, confident, compelling, funny, sexy, devilish & unstoppable.
In his trademark black hat, the ultimate American Badass has this irresistible energy. He is a showman who gives the audience exactly what they want. Kid Rock's performance at Cheyenne Frontier Days in Cheyenne, Wyoming was as usual, nothing short of spectacular. The set was a well infusion of Kid's greatest hits in rock, country & rap and it pleased the entire audience. I for one had a KILLER time.
Its tough to list everything Kid Rock does in a live performance. He pretty much oozes talent and confidence and it shows.
He plays electric guitar, drums, piano, and makes music while spinning some albums - all while maintaining a madmans pace.
Cruisin' with Florida-Georgia Line.
Oh What A Show!
Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley, one of country's biggest duo's - Florida Georgia Line - rocked the stage at Cheyenne Frontier Days. Their dynamic stage presence and infectious smiles throughout the show left you simply in awe. It's no wonder they've reached superstar status as country's hottest new duo.
The vibe was fantastic all night!
Pure, rocket-fueled adrenaline. The ever popular sing-along, when the artist kinda stops singing and lets us the crowd take over became some of the nights
highlights. Their setlist included "Get Your Shine On," "This Is How We Roll," and "Cruise" and these fan favorites had the crowd estatic by voicing their appreciation with one continuous roar...
Colt Ford
Colt Ford is a good ol' country boy that knows how to get down. This was the first I had ever seen Colt and what I instantly noticed was how he put his heart into what he was doing and how without realizing it, I was bopping to his beat. Man, he rocked the hell out of that stage. I was hooked and now I'm a Colt Ford Fan! I love his love of country as evidence the flag he carries.
I also noticed how talented all the members of his band are but I thought his fiddle/ guitar player/ part time singer was fantastic! They offer a good live sound. Totally enjoyable.
Colt Ford created a style that suits him and his fans love it. He was received with open arms by the music hungry folks in the audience. His crowd pleasing songs just kept coming! The setlist included...
Brad Paisley - Beat This Summer Tour!
Brad Paisley was at the top of his game during his performance at Cheyenne Frontier Days. The show had it all... Great vocals, great entertainment at a great venue with great weather. What more could you ask for? How bout some extroadinary visuals, pitch perfect vocals, mad-skill guitar playing and Brad's humor throughout the entire night. He put it all out there and the crowd LOVED it!
He is one helluva entertainer who really goes out of his way to make a connection with the audience.
The man has energy and charisma, and of course, great talent. He is very interactive with the audience and there is no limit to the depth and ambition of his songs. Throughout the whole night he had the crowd in the palm of his hand.
When a fan threw a bra with a one dollar bill pinned to it up on stage he made us laugh by telling the fan that he appreciated the money but he was already getting paid for performing...
Dustin Lynch - Rising Star
Lynch is a breath of fresh air. Always smiling, fabulous voice, infectious personality, great ambiance with his band. Just a pure pleasure to listen and to watch. His song list included; "Dancing In The Headlights," "She Cranks My Tractor," "Sitting Pretty," "Callin' Baton Rouge" (Garth Brooks cover),"Hurricane," "Wild In Your Smile," "Cowboys & angels" and more.
As if flashing those baby blue eyes and that sweet smile wasn't enough to endear him to the audience his dedication of "Cowboys & Angels" to his Grandparents certainly was. 58 Years & 4 months... that's how long they are married. He also took a picture of the audience to tweet to his Mom, just so she knew he was having a good time. But the highlight of the show - Dustin Lynch doing "Rock Your Body" by Justin Timberlake. He admitted it was out of his wheelhouse but was doing it on a dare and WOW it sure paid off. I loved it and I thoroughly enjoyed the moves that went along with it! Truth is I thoroughly enjoyed his entire show. Dustin Lynch is a true country boy who can put on a great show.
Creedence Clearwater Revisited
Good Old Time Rock n' Roll
With a mix of original and new members, Creedence Clearwater Revisited (CCR)
still has what it takes to bring down the house. They beautifully delivered on all the songs we remember and a
few we may have forgotten. The energy and stage presence took everyone in attendance back to the 60s and 70s. They had us from the beginning with "Born On The Bayou" and by the time the bad moon rose...... they had the packed out crowd on their feet as well!
The original drummer (Cosmo) and bass guitarist (Stu) are still with the band after all these years!
Cosmo and Stu took the time to comment about the longevity of their music and thanked the fans for their support. The band (CCR) was formed in 1995 with Cook saying, "We never really had any intention of playing for the public, but a friend wanted to promote a couple of concerts. We got talked into it..." As a fan, all I can say is "Creedence Lives!"
Still a Juke Box Hero
Foreigner - World Class Rockers who put on a great show! Frontman Kelly Hansen was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! His flawless voice and energy kept everyone on their feet. The fact that it was a simple theater (The Pikes Peak center) did not stop Foreigner from rockin' the building on my birthday the night of November 3rd!
Great vibe all night!
Pure, rocket-fueled adrenaline. One of the nights highlights... "I
Want To Know What Love Is" sung with Widefield High School Choir. Foreigner joined forces with the GRAMMY foundation in an effort to help keep music education alive in high schools. The band has donated thousands to individual high schools and to the GRAMMy foundation. Tonight the Widefield High School was the recipeint of Foreigners generosity. Another unsuspected and reoccurring part of the show was the chatter of lead singer Kelly Hansen between songs. He also pleasantly surprised us by going into the audience for some Hi-Fives more than once.
Bruno Mars - Moonshine Jungle Tour
Just The Way You Are!
It was all there; the R&B influence, the Motown moves, the sing-along favorites that never wanted for energy or intensity. The Moonshine Jungle Tour was built to deliver the perfect night of entertainment and entertain us it did! The sold-out show opens with Bruno appearing through fog and immediately kicks off with the hit Moonshine, which in turn had everyone on their feet shaking what their Mama gave them.
Bruno is a little dynamo with a powerhouse voice that's distinctive and head turning. He is James Brown, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley all rolled into one neat package. With an old-fashion showbiz razzle dazzle Bruno Mars and his Hooligans deliver. They are what a professional band is all about. Modern, catchy and addictive, a band with an act that refuses to be boring. All the members were in top form - running, jumping and dancing across the stage, giving the cheering crowd everything they wanted and more.
Jason Aldean
Come On Baby Let's Go Listen to the Night Train!
Jason Aldean is an electrifying and a talented performer who has the ability to consistently deliver a wild set from start to finish no matter the venue. His high-octane Night Train show is a sure-fire hit! Bringing his fiesty brand of country to a sold-out, record-breaking Cheyenne Frontier Days was
quite the party... Ok, it was my kinda party! As Jason so famously sings "You got your country boys and your redneck girls. It's the party heard round the world.." And what a party it was. Nothing short of a total adrenaline rush that sweeps you away.
As Aldean hit the stage with a roar, the vigor of Crazy Town had the crowd joined in a collective choral swoon. Take A Little Ride cascaded into uproarious cheers and iPhone snapshots. By the third song, "Tatoos On This Town" I settled into a groove with the hundreds around me and thousands behind me.
The Band Perry - Rising Stars
Attending a concert by The Band Perry (TBP) is to witness a performance of giant proportions! While touring with Rascal Flatts, the Band Perry takes performing to a whole new level. Their opening number "Done" is a solid high-energy song with an insinuatingly catchy chorus and choreographed moves, (hair included) to whet everyones appetite.
TBP is composed of siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil. Their self-titled debut album was released in 2009 with "Pioneer," their second album released in april of 2013. In 2010 they won the Academy of Country Music's Top New Artist and Top New Duo or Group awards. They also cinched CMT Music Awards Breakthrough Video of the Year with "If I Die Young," which also won Country Music Association's Single of the Year Award in 2011.
So how does one describe The Band Perry fronted by Kimberly Perry...
Luke Bryan
Dirt Road Diaries - Cheyenne Frontier Days
Luke Bryan was the definition of country cool at Cheyenne Frontier Days this summer. The singer had a one track mind, focused on a single, splendid goal and that was to have you standing on your feet, pumping your first in the air and rockin' the hell out of every minute of his concert and by doing so he effectively captured his firecracker live energy and his unstoppable groove. Over 21,000 fans crashed his party that night and every one of them had a foot stomping time!
Luke Bryan is a natural performer whose boyish handsomeness, smooth sexy sound and undeniable swagger was just right for a cool rainy July night! Throughout the night Luke sounded strong thrilling the crowd with his set list, which included; Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye, Country Man, Someone Else Calling You Baby, Rain Is A Good Thing...
The song is called "I.S.S. (Is Somebody Singing)," and it's billed as the first space-Earth musical collaboration. It's a very long-distance project from Canadians Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies and Chris Hadfield, who currently commands the International Space Station.

[0001]This invention relates to a smelting furnace.
[0002]In one aspect, the invention provides a smelting furnace, a vessel of the furnace for receiving material to be smelted having an inner surface which at least at an upper portion thereof is concave and reflective.
[0003]The furnace may have an electrode at least a portion of which is within the interior of the vessel, for heating said material by application of electric potential to the electrode.
[0004]Means may be provided for introducing inert gas into the interior of the vessel, for ionisation under influence of said electric potential, to cause the gas to form a heated plasma, for effecting said heating of the material to be smelted.
[0005]The invention also provides a smelting furnace having electrode forming means for forming a conductive electrode, for use in heating material in the furnace by passage of electric current applied via the electrode, said electrode forming means being adapted to receive fluid material for forming the electrode such that the material sets in the interior of the furnace to form the electrode, such the electrode is positioned in the furnace for application of said electric current.
[0006]The means for forming a conductive electrode may include means for deriving off-gas from the interior of the furnace during said smelting, means for deriving from the off-gas carbonaceous ash material, means for combining said ash material with a liquid carbonaceous material to from said fluid material, and means for introducing said fluid material into said electrode forming means.
[0007]The electrode forming means may be in the form of an annular structure, whereby in use to cause said electrode to be formed from said fluid material in a downwardly depending annular form.
[0008]Means may be provided for introducing inert gas into said furnace through said electrode.
[0009]The furnace may be arranged for transforming said fluid material to solid form, for forming the electrode, under action of heat in the furnace.
[0010]The invention further provides a method of smelting material by electrical heating using an electrode in a furnace, wherein the electrode is formed by casting it in the furnace.
[0011]Carbonaceous ash material derived from the off-gas may be combined with a liquid carbonaceous material to form a fluid material, the fluid material being introduced into electrode forming means, to form the electrode.
[0012]By this method, the electrode may be formed as a downwardly depending annular member. The liquid carbonaceous material may be pitch.
[0013]The extruded annular member may be set by heat in the furnace.
[0014]The invention is further described by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
[0015]FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of a smelting furnace formed in accordance with the invention, together with ancillary equipment;
[0016]FIG. 2 is a vertical cross-section of the smelting furnace of FIG. 1;
[0017]FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-section on the line 3-3 in FIG. 2;
[0018]FIG. 4 is an enlarged vertical section of the region "A" in FIG. 1;
[0019]FIG. 5 is an enlarged vertical section of the region "B" in FIG. 1; and
[0020]FIG. 6 is a flow diagram of illustrating processing steps for continuous formation of a smelting furnace electrode in accordance with the invention.
[0021]The furnace 100 illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a smelting vessel 102 defining therewithin an internal chamber 104. The vessel is formed predominantly of metal, having inner and outer walls 106, 108 with a space 110 therebetween. One or more ducts 112 are provided to enable a suitable coolant liquid such as sodium to be passed into the space 110 for circulation therewithin, for cooling the vessel 102 in use thereof.
[0022]The lower part 114 of the vessel 102 is of dished form adapted to receive material 116 which is to be smelted. The upper part 118 of the vessel 102 is of concave domed configuration, for example, of substantially hemispherical or paraboloid configuration. To facilitate assembly and disassembly of the vessel such as in manufacture or for maintenance, the upper and lower parts 114, 118 may be separately formed and attached together by releasable means (not shown).
[0023]Broadly, material 116 to be smelted is positioned in the vessel 102 so to lie on the lower part 114 of the vessel 102. Smelting is effected by application of an electric potential between a central downwardly depending carbonaceous electrode 120 in the vessel 102, which terminates above the upper surface 117 of the material 116, and a central electrode 137 in the base of the vessel 102. The electrodes 120, 137 are electrically insulated from the vessel 102. During smelting, gas (which may be an inert gas such as argon) is introduced into the chamber 104, immediately above surface 117 via an upright duct 145 which extends vertically within a central lengthwise extending passageway 122 in the electrode 120. The passage of the electric current causes ionisation of the gas introduced into the chamber 104, to cause the gas to form a heated plasma for heating and smelting of material 116. The electric supply may be a conventional low voltage high current DC source 119 which applies potential to the electrodes such that the electrode 120 is the cathode and the electrode 137 is the anode.
[0024]The electrode 120, which in use of the furnace 100, is consumed by erosion of the lower end thereof, is formed in the vessel 102 by a continuous casting process, so that it is continuously replenished. Particularly, the furnace has an electrode forming means 70 arranged such that the electrode 120 is continuously formed in a vertically elongate space 141 of annular cross section, defined between inner and outer coaxial hollow cylindrical members 123, 125 of the electrode form means 70. The electrode 120 is correspondingly formed so as to be of annular cross-section, to define therewithin the central passageway 122.
[0025]Cylindrical member 125 extends axially of the vessel 102, from an upper end which is exteriorly positioned above the upper part 118 of the vessel, downwardly through a central opening 127 in the vessel 102, above the upper part 118, and into the chamber 104. The member 125 terminates at a lower end positioned so as to be, in use of the furnace 100, a short distance above the surface 117 of the material to be smelted. The member 125 is electrically insulated from the vessel 102 by an annular insulation element 138 surrounding the periphery of the member 125 towards its upper end and positioned in opening 127. The cathode 120 is electrically insulated from the vessel 102 by an annular insulation ring 139 positioned in a lower central opening 135 in the vessel 102 and surrounding the periphery of anode 137.
[0026]The upper end of cylindrical member 125 is closed by an upper transverse wall 143. The lower end of the cylindrical member 125 is open. The upper end of duct 123 extends through a central opening in transverse wall 143 to an upper end then leads, through a control valve 148, to a receptacle 170 for material to be smelted, in flowable, eg granular form. By operation of the valve 148, the material in receptacle 170 can be released from the receptacle to pass down the interior of the cylindrical member 123 to be deposited in the chamber 104.
[0027]The duct 145 extends coaxially within the cylindrical member 123. It opens at its lower end at a location within the member 123, and at a relatively short distance above the bottom of chamber 104. The upper end passes sealingly though an opening in member 123, and leads to a source of inert gas (not shown). In use, the gas is introduced into the duct 145 from the source to flow down the duct 145, and exit from an open lower end of the duct a short distance above the lower end of electrode 120.
[0028]The lower, open, end of member 123 is open, and is located at about the same vertical height as the lower end of cylindrical member 125.
[0029]A duct 147 extends sidewardly from cylindrical member 125, at the upper end thereof, and provides communication between the space 141 between the members 123, 125, at the upper end thereof. Duct 147 communicates with the lower part of a hopper 152 which receives a particulate material 157 formed mainly from carbon ash. By operation of a valve 149 in duct 147, the material 157 in hopper 152 is controllably released from the hopper 152, to flow through duct 147 into the space 141 at the top thereof.
[0030]A ring-like feed member 161 is provided, surrounding the cylindrical member 125 at the upper end thereof, above vessel 102, but below the duct 147, and sealingly attached, at the inner periphery thereof to the external cylindrical surface of the member 125. As best shown in FIG. 3, feed member 161 has an array of equi-angularly disposed radial passageways 165 which at outer ends communicate with externally extending ducts 163.
[0031]At inner ends, the passageways 165 communicate with the space 141 via respective side openings 171 in the member 125.
[0032]The passageways 165 are normally closed by ball valves 173 having balls 175 urged by springs 179 into contact with annular valve seats 177 formed in passageways 165.
[0033]Referring now to FIG. 5, the ducts 163 communicate with a distribution element 185 of a delivery device 181, which is coupled to a receptacle 187 for liquid pitch 191. The delivery device 181 has a hollow cylinder 193 closed at one end by the distribution element 185. The ducts 163 terminate at openings 201 in the distribution device 185 and which provide communication between the ducts 163 and the interior of cylinder 193.
[0034]The receptacle 187 has a lower outlet which communicates via a duct 195 with a side opening 205 in the cylinder 193.
[0035]A piston 197 is slidingly and sealingly retained in cylinder 193, for reciprocating movement therewithin. Piston 197 is pivotally connected to one end of a connecting rod 199, the other end of which is pivotally connected at an eccentric location to a drive disc 203, mounted to the output shaft of a motor 206. When motor 206 is operated, disc 203 is rotated to cause piston 197 to be reciprocated in cylinder 193, by action of connecting rod 199. The side opening 205 in cylinder 193 is so positioned that, as the piston is reciprocated in cylinder 193 pursuant to operation of motor 206, successive charges of pitch 191 from the receptacle 187 are delivered to the cylinder 193, as the piston 197 is withdrawn in the cylinder to the location shown in FIG. 5, and then forced by subsequent advancement of the piston in the cylinder through openings 201 and through the ducts 163. The pressure applied by the piston 197 to each charge of pitch so forced into the ducts 163 is such that the pressurised pitch acts to open the ball valves 173. Particularly, pressure so exerted against balls 175 moves them away form the valve seats 177 against the bias provided by springs 179. By this, pitch 191 is transported from receptacle 187 through ducts 163 to pass via balls valves 173, ducts 163, passageways 165 and openings 171 into the upper part of space 141.
[0036]The pitch 191 introduced into the upper part of space 141 is introduced around the periphery of the particulate material 157 introduced into the space 141 via duct 147, and becomes intermingled with that material to form a body of carbonaceous material which, under continued operation of the furnace, descends in the space 141. As it descends, the material is baked by heat from the operation of the furnace to form the electrode 120.
[0037]As mentioned, the electrode 120 is continuously consumed in operation of the furnace. However because the electrode 120 is, as above described, formed by a continuous casting process, it is possible, by matching the rate of formation of the electrode 120 with the rate of erosion thereof to ensure that the electrode 120 is maintained at a stable length, and so that the lower end of the electrode 120 is maintained at a stable height above surface 117. This can be effected by appropriate control of the speed of rotation of motor 206, to control the rate of feed of the pitch 191, and by regulation of the inflow rate of the particulate material 157, by control of the valve 149 in the duct 147.
[0038]The electric potential applied between cathode 120 and anode 137 is sufficient to enable ionisation of the gas passed into the chamber 104 through duct 145 so as to form a heated plasma in the chamber 104 which melts the material 116. The interior surface 109 of the inner wall 106, at least at the upper part of the vessel 102, is rendered to a highly reflective state, such as to exhibit a mirror finish. In consequence, and because of the concave shape of the upper part of surface 109, heat is reflected within the chamber 104, so that a relatively lesser portion thereof is lost from the vessel 102 and efficient heating and smelting of the material 116 results. Molten metal from material 116, derived by the smelting, may be withdrawn via a side passageway 130 which passes through side walls 106, 108. Slag 254, resulting from the smelting may be withdrawn via a passageway 131 which passes through side walls 106, 108, entering chamber 104 at a height somewhat above the location where passageway 130 communicates with the chamber 104. In case of smelting some materials 116, it may be desirable to recover heavier metals 256, which collect at the lower part of the chamber 104 during smelting. As shown, the walls 106, 108 are configured, at the bottom of the vessel 102, to form a small recess 225 around the location of the cathode 120 at which the heavier metals 256 accumulate. There is an outlet duct 133 leading from the lower part of the surface of recess 225, through which molten metals so recovered by smelting may be taken from chamber 104.
[0039]The cathode 120 is preferably formed with upstanding fingers 137A which are electrically insulated from each other by suitable surrounding insulating material.
[0040]Walls of pipes defining the passageways 130, 133 and 131 are provided with heating coils wound therearound, at locations adjacent the interior of the chamber 102, such as between walls 106, 108, as shown. Electric current is passed through these to inhibit solidification of molten materials therewithin.
[0041]Off gas generated during smelting is taken from chamber 104 via an upper outlet duct 132.
[0042]As mentioned, at least the upper part of the surface 109 of the interior of the vessel 102 (i.e. that formed by inner surface of the upper part of the wall 106) is rendered to a highly reflective state such as by polishing it, preferably to a mirror finish. It has been found that, by this, the heating effect within the vessel 102 is greatly enhanced and efficient smelting can be achieved.
[0043]When smelting certain metals such as magnesium, the metal tends to come off as a vapour in chamber 104, which needs to be condensed to recover the metal in liquid form. In a refractory-lined kiln, the vapour tends to adhere to the refractory and recovery is impeded. In the furnace 100, however, recovery may be effected by use of a simple splash condenser at a suitable outlet. FIG. 4 shows such an arrangement. In this, the duct 132 is defined by a pipe 238 leading from the chamber 104, and which communicates with a splash condenser 258, via an expansion chamber 260. An electrically conductive coil 244 is provided around the pipe 238, between vessel 102 and expansion chamber 260, and electric current is passed this to heat this part of the pipe to inhibit condensation of vapour therein. Vapour admitted to chamber 260 is cooled by expansion in chamber 260 and the expanded, and somewhat cooled. The vapour is then conveyed to the splash condenser 258, at which it is condensed. The part of pipe between expansion chamber 260 and splash condenser 258 is cooled by passing suitable cooling fluid through a helical cooling element positioned around that part of the pipe.
[0044]The smelter may be used for a smelting variety of materials such as ilmenite for recovery of titanium.
[0045]The material 157 may comprise carbon ash which has been subjected to chemical action, together with graphite powder, in a mechano fuser. The resultant material may comprise small particles of carbon ash surrounded by graphite powder. The carbon ash may be recovered from the furnace 100, particularly from the off gas at opening 132 by a process illustrated in FIG. 6.
[0046]As shown in FIG. 6, the off gas 140 passes to a precipitator 142. Fine metal dust, carbon and ash 180 recovered from the precipitator is passed to a magnetic separator 182 which may be of the electrostatic type. Separated metals 200 from the separator 182 are returned to the furnace and separated carbon ash 190 is then passed to a mechano fuser 192, together with graphite powder 202 to form the material 157 which is directed to the space 141 as described. Material separated from the fine metal dust, carbon and ash in the precipitator 142 is passed to a vortex scrubber 505, which also receives micronised limestone 511. From the vortex scrubber 505, there emerges clean air 507 and separated limestone slurry 509. Slurry 509 has entrapped materials such as sulphur and superfine gases or dust. The slurry may be disposed of as required.
[0047]Particular exemplary applications of the invention are:
A) Smelting and recovery of metal from waste materials recovered from electric arc furnaces when processing metal (arc furnace dust). [0048]Typically, substantial quantities of dust-like material are produced in such processing. The material may include carbonaceous dust from the carbon electrodes of the furnace. It typically also includes particles derived the material being processed, eg metal, and from flux employed in processing. These particles may include metal oxides, calcium etc. The dust like materials are typically recovered by extraction of gas and dust from the electric arc furnace interior, and passing that material to a suitable dust collector (eg a "bag-house). The materials are troublesome, in that they are difficult to contain, and in typical smelting operations need to be stored rather than being used in some subsequent industrial process. These materials can however be used as raw material in a smelting furnace formed in accordance with the invention. That is, the material can be passed via a suitable transport system (such as a supply duct) to the interior of the furnace for smelting to recover the metal contained in the material.B) Recovery of metal from slag produced by, eg electric arc furnaces or blast furnaces. [0049]Slag produced when smelting metal ores typically includes metal or metal ore from the material to be smelted, as well as material derived from the flux employed in smelting, eg limestone, silica etc. Presently, the slag is of little commercial worth. However, using the techniques of the present invention, it is possible to smelt the slag to recover metal from it. Thus slag derived from an electric arc furnace during smelting metal ores such as ores containing iron, zinc and/or lead may be reduced to particulate form and used as feed for a furnace constructed in accordance with this invention, in order to smelt the slag and recover the metal from it.C) Smelting of metal ores [0050]Metal ores subjected to concentration by conventional techniques and crushed to particulate form may be used as feed for a furnace constructed in accordance with this invention, in order to smelt the ore and recover the metal from it.
[0051]It will be apparent to the skilled addressee that many modifications and changes may be made to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope thereof.
[0052]The reference to any prior art in this specification is not, and should not be taken as, an acknowledgment or any form of suggestion that that prior art forms part of the common general knowledge in Australia.
[0053]Throughout this specification and the claims which follow, unless the context requires otherwise, the word "comprise", and variations such as "comprises" and "comprising", will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or step or group of integers or steps but not the exclusion of any other integer or step or group of integers or steps.

Inka Essenhigh
oil on canvas
198. x 177 cm
Inka Essenhigh paints Subway as a commuters' opera. Her smooth surface and seamless paint replicates the sublime precision of urban life. Essenhigh's corporate toned environment becomes a stage on which her strange and distorted figures conjoin in symphonic movement, leaving plastic trails in their haste as they swoon through the scene. Turning everyday banality into surreal case study, Essenhigh gives humorous portrayal of people at their rush hour worst. Drawing stylistic reference from both graphic novels and golden age animation, caricatured city-types gain comically heroic status, rendering a humble slice of America as grand theatrical drama.

Appropriating the theme of Katsushika Hokusai's
The Great Wave
, Inka Essenhigh's
Blue Wave
crests with sculptural solidity. Essenhigh deviates from the flat designs and enamel application of her early work. Using oil paint she infuses her scene with manufactured vivacity: this heroic depiction of nature is rendered with the aesthetics of computer animation. Like Hokusai's woodcut print, Essenhigh uses the stillness of stylised formations to contemplate the drama of a raging seascape. Flaunting their artificiality, the turquoise waves seduce with a certain menace, their razor sharp peaks extending with decorative threat.
Inka Essenhigh
2005, oil on linen
178 x 193cm
"I think about [my paintings] as being about America: fake, fun, pop, violent, but also quite attractive," Inka Essenhigh explains. In Essenhigh's most recent work, images from suburbia convolute into grotesque dreamscapes; her pastoral scenes of normality belie their true nature as instances of alien horror. In
, Essenhigh readily captures the greed of a chav-land mall with cartoonist's exaggeration: shell-suited blonds undulate with flirtatious curvature, arms cum tentacles slither for bargain goods. In distorting the scene, Essenhigh draws humorous caricature as well as a heightened sense of plasticity; the women resemble figurines in a themed setting, mannequins illustrating their own insincerity.
Inka Essenhigh
2004, oil and enamel on canvas
183 x 188cm
Inka Essenhigh translates the subtle qualities of drawing into luxurious paintings. Resonating with exquisite draughtsmanship,
is reminiscent of the design purity of the art deco era. Painting in oil and enamel, Essenhigh uses the cool gloss effect of her media to create a sense of hyper-artificiality: her flat surface possesses a richness of synthetic colour, deceptive in illusion of depth and luminosity. Influenced by 19th century caricatures, oriental art, and contemporary comics, Essenhigh's paintings are both exotic and operatic: envisioning futuristic mythologies frozen in sublime moments of suspended animation.
Inka Essenhigh
2002, oil on canvas
183 x 203cm
Inka Essenhigh's paintings redefine pop as the epitome of aesthetic hierarchy. Her ultra-slick surfaces operate as virtual fields, where estranged narratives play out in cross-wired systems of reference and recognition. In WWF, Essenhigh draws from romanticised emblems of decadence: the classicism of Greek frescos or the empyreal motifs of Asian lacquer-ware are resembled with futuristic technophilia, made more dynamic in the fantasy realm of cartoon. The god-like figures contort in a stylised motif of aestheticised violence and sexuality. Essenhigh's highly structured formalism eschews emotional intimacy; line, space, and colour are used to create stunning tension, a baroque beauty that is majestically antiseptic.
Inka Essenhigh
Pup Tent
2004, oil on canvas
183 x 152cm
Pup Tent
, Inka Essenhigh shifts to a more realistic style with poetic sensitivity, translating her graphic designs into a softly rendered 3D world. Her mythological scene unfolds with the compositional order of her earlier enamel paintings: compacted configurations, affiliated by trailing ephemera, engulfed by a swooping mass of flowing motion. In this new painterly language, Essenhigh gives real tangibility to form: her figure comes to life with porcelain-like delicacy, and the fabric flows with defined texture rather than calligraphied patterns. Trading her factitious palette for gothic monochrome, Essenhigh capitalises on the richness and depth of the medium to create a painting that is elegant and haunting.
Inka Essenhigh
2001, oil on canvas
267 x 220cm
is a celebration of sinuous, elegant, energetic drawing. Focusing on mythical horses, Essenhigh delights in the curving, twisting lines of their flowing manes and muscular bodies. Like many of the figures in her recent paintings, they seem on the point of bursting out of the image, momentarily stilled in a quivering evocation of throbbing energy and life.

Hi. I'm trying to optimize my site. Whenever I do a speed test there is one file that takes longer than anything else. It is this file:
Is this this js file necessary to run the plugin? (I don't even use the sidebar widget, just on my posts directly.) Is there a way I can disable or remove this so it speeds up my site?
And just to reiterate, I use a lot of plugins. It's a very full-featured site, and this one single file almost doubles the page load time.

Very helpful owner great apartment location coundnot be any better two min walk to town centre and five minute walk to main train station and underground would use it again and recommend it to anyone
Great location, convenient pick-up / drop-off of keys. Size was good for a couple with an infant. The apartment did not feel that clean to be honest. Like it was tidy and maybe wiped down / vacuum used, but just didn't feel clean.
The location of the flat was perfect. It was very central but quiet at the same time. How to get there was really easy.
Check in wasn't very comfortable because the person who opened the apartment for us didn't speak a lot of english (the owners werent there unfortunately).
The apartment had everything we needed (maybe a towel more would have been perfect) but it was not as clean and tidy as we expected.
We had to leave the apartment very soon because the next guest was already coming!
This delightful flat was comfortable, warm and quiet, and could not be better situated, right in the heart of the city. Everything that one would expect was there, and although I arrived quite late in the evening, a warm welcome awaited me. I would not hesitate to recommend this flat, and indeed I hope to stay there again later in the year!
Great Stay! The place is very warm and confortable!
Everything was very easy to organize and the place is easy to find and right in the center of town!
Very recommended!! AAA
I am satisfied with the appartment. Very well located in the down town. Very quiet, no noise heard from the Street. Perfect for a couple who wants to visit Múnich. However, in my opinion it is not suitable due to its small size for a couple with children.
We would like to thank for the easy and comfortable stay in Munich! The apartment was just enough for sleeping and eating for two adults and two kids. Location is great, next to shopping street and Karlsplatz, from where you can access everywhere in Munich.
A lovely, very well organized apt in the heart of Munich, without the risk of noise of street traffic and 30 seconds from everything you could want. It is like living there as a local resident. Harald is a wonderful and conscientious and accommodating host, and I look forward to seeing the place again soon!
Tolle Unterkunft, super zentrale Lage: Fußgängerzone, Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, öffentliche Verkehrsmittel alles ganz nah. Freundlicher Gastgeber, schöne Wohnung, Schlüsselübergabe völlig problemlos. Perfekt!
- Гарантировать качество жилья
- Проверить каждого принимающиего Вас хозяина по телефону

text: The longest banana split ever made was 7.320 km long (needless to say, more than one banana was used). If an archer were to shoot an arrow horizontally from the top of Mount Everest, which is located 8848 m above sea level, would the arrow's horizontal displacement be larger than 7.32km? Assume that the arrow cannot be shot faster than 100.0 m/s, that there is no air resistance, and that the arrow lands at sea level.

5: Tighten a Loose Set Screw
Set screws are those tiny fasteners that hold everything from doorknobs on their spindles to wall-hung toilet-paper and towel hooks on their brackets. But some set screws just won't stay set. Try applying a drop of Loctite Threadlocker Blue to the threads and reinserting it. "It's a superglue-type adhesive that's strong enough to keep the screw from vibrating out, but will easily release when you want to unscrew it," says Norm Abram. No glue will help if the threads are stripped, though. In that case, wrap some sewing thread clockwise around the screw's shank before putting it back.

Released: Dec 01st, 2004
Running Time: 108
Director: Csaba the Hun
Company: Heatwave Entertainment
Cast: Eve Laurence, Autumn Starr, Hope Rising, John West, Ashley Haze, Lani Lei, Cailey Taylor, Naudia Nyce, Magnum (I), Randi Wright, Tommy Cumm, Sergio (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
For the gonzo-stroker who wants their boy/girl and girl/girl in one place.
This series has some fun with its marketing-angle before launching into scenes of load inducing anal. Three scenes of the boy/girl suck-fuck-facial formula play heavily on "the younger woman seducing the older alpha-male type" formula. The clichés are all here, right down to the pigtails.
The framing devices are consistently goofy, but add to the scenes. This is especially the case in one of two top-notch girl/girl pairings. Lani Lei wants to get on "the team," so Ashley Haze teaches her how to seduce the coach by face-fucking her with a dildo.
This entry's most formidable strength is the inclusion of so much anal without even making note of it on the box; Humility from a humble release. It's sure to satisfy any stroker on a slow weeknight.

Wonderful rescue that does everything from save pit bulls to free spay/neuter clinics in low income neighborhoods to training classes, pit bull outreach, national evaluations and more. They're the most-recognized pit bull rescue in the country - just really great people who do really great work.

I remain a huge fan of Bad Rap and their two-pronged mission to educate people and restore the American pit bull terrier to its rightful place in our country. They have been a huge help to me with my rescued pit. Their website and Facebook page are an excellent way to learn about the dogs and see the rescues they bring into their fold. All of us who follow them celebrate the placement of each dog. Many go on to have their own blogs so we can even keep up with them in their new homes. No, their miniscule staff doesn't have time to answer every email that comes in, but they are quite transparent about what goes on at the Bad Rap Barn. The dedication of this organization to training people to handle and enjoy these great dogs is amazing, and I will continue to support their efforts.

I became a volunteer handler at Berkeley Animal Control Services primarily so I could learn from and help Bad Rap. They have an awesome program that allows trained BACS volunteers to take pit bulls from the shelter to Bad Rap training classes. The idea behind this relationship is that a pit bull who is even slightly trained and somewhat socialized is much more likely to be adopted. Also, anyone who adopts a pit from the BACS shelter gets to attend Bad Rap's classes at no charge! I ended up adopting my "trainee" when no one else was interested. She was a terrible fence-fighter and very dog-reactive, but I saw potential. The Bad Rap trainers got us through the basics, gave me some socialization tips, and generally were just THERE for me when I needed questions answered. My dog passed her Canine Good Citizen test (much to my surprise) within a few months. Now we've moved on, and she's working on being certified as a therapy dog and an allergy-alert service dog. The Bad Rap folks gave both of us the confidence we needed to start out relationship, and I will be forever grateful for their expertise and patience.

Two refugees from Spindletop arrived at BAD RAP August 21, 2012. The dogs have disappeared. BAD RAP refuses to give any information about these two dogs who survived a nightmare only to disappear. As a group which rakes in almost a half million dollars a year in public donation money, this group owes an explanation to the public about these two dogs. Where are they?

The "Hitchhiker" is back with three more tales from his carnal travelogue and they couldn't be any nastier. Nikki Brantz's opening sequence is guaranteed to have you offering up your goo no matter how many times you watch it. Besides taking two thick globbers in her mouth, what she does with her asshole would make gerbils jealous. The other two scenes are excellent too, both ending in mug shots for Liza and Ashley.
