The remaining members of the Meters are legends in their own time, and the pioneers of funk brought their sound to Denver for a rekindling of the fire following their Jazzfest performances in New Orleans. The Meter Men include three original Meters: bassist, George Porter Jr.; guitarist, Leo Nocentelli; and drummer, Zigaboo Modeliste; plus Phish keyboardist, Page McConnell to fill the missing Meter position. The show was one of the best I had seen in 2013, and possibly one of the all time greats I have seen….and I have seen a few.
In support of the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame players was Boulder’s own homegrown talent, West Water Outlaws. They did a great job making the near full Ogden Theatre bounce to their old school groove and youthful energy!
I was on assignment with Listen Up Denver!, so check out their review and my images via the link below. Enjoy the photos and know they don’t come close to actually being at this mind blowing show!
