There may
be no larger, or more festive, congregation of tubas than during the
annual TubaChristmas, a tradition more than 30 years old. The concept
is simple: bring together as many tubas and euphoniums (baritones) as
you can find, and have them play one hour’s worth of Christmas and
other holiday tunes. “Silent Night,” “Deck the Halls,” “Silver
Bells” and maybe Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus.
Denver’s
TubaChristmas began in 1974 with a tuba player named Bill Clark.

Even the name invokes images of pre-punk London: Lipgloss. It rolls off the
tongue, in all its glamorous grunge, pulsating with an electric attitude
that sums up the scene perfectly. What is Lipgloss? It’s not a bar,
or a club – it’s a night. A freaker’s ball with DJs that keep
it hot and drink specials that keep it affordable for the counterculture
socialites. It happens every Friday in La Rumba, a salsa club turned
weekly post-modern rave party.
