All be it a short set, Keaton Simons show in Colorado Springs, CO on Friday, February 13th, was a precise and effective set.
The show, which included Simons as the opener, Trevor Hall, and Tyrone Wells, was held at the Stargazers theatre. Quite a funny venue, almost like a big bubble with all levels of seating. The sound in the space was amazing.
Simons played about 25 acoustic minutes of original tunes, including Masterpiece which was co-written with Josh Kelly. Keaton never fails to thank the crowd and always has a solid stage presence.
Trevor Hall's set was comprised of originals as well. He has a very reggae tone to his songs. But truly after the 45 minute set was finished, I could only remember one great thing about it, the drummer. Chris Steele was quite a motivator for the set.
It was my first time seeing Tyrone Wells. He has a generous amount of talent and creativity that he lends to the stage. His wealth of love songs woo'd the crowd.The first time Simons joined Wells on stage was for a great song with some really beautiful sounding electric guitar riffs. And the electric guitar being played, which was custom-made for Wells, had an amazing sound and look.
Near the end of Wells 1.5 hour set, all three acts joined together in a smashing rendition of The Beatles 'With a little help from my friends'.
Overall the show was bountiful, with Keaton's licks, Wells' love songs, and the abundant sound. However, as far as traveling to the Springs again, not sure I will be needing to do that ever again.
