Tripping Griswolds at Band on the Bricks – July 25, 2012
Jul 28th
To be honest, when I heard the opening riff to “Walking in Memphis,” I thought to myself “well, here’s yet another typical cover band.” Oh, how wrong I was. This motley gang of six, known as Tripping Griswolds, put on a stellar show. Their performance was tight, flowing through the cover band mainstays like “Sweet Child of Mine” and “Don’t Stop Believin'”. I was pleasantly surprised when they put their own flavor on Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance,” it was a delight to see this goofy crew of gentlemen perform that song. They had the crowd on Pearl Street packed in front of the stage, dancing all evening. The, so called, “Special Ed” (the guy resembling a jolly blue Kool-aid man) threw some great banter in between songs. They wrapped up the show with a Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline,” with the crowd singing the chorus in unison.
If you need a good old cover act for an event, the Tripping Griswolds are top-notch.

Boulder’s talking trash (pickup) again
Jul 28th
Special trash service dates announced
According to Boulder Revised Code (BRC) 1981 Section 6-3-9, property owners and managers of rental properties in the University Hill and Goss/Grove neighborhoods are required to contract with trash haulers for pick-up service for the following dates in 2012:
- Fall: Saturday, July 28 through Monday, August 27
The University Hill neighborhood boundaries are from Arapahoe Avenue to Baseline Road and from Broadway Street to Ninth Street, and the Goss/Grove neighborhood boundaries are from Canyon Boulevard to Arapahoe Avenue and from Folsom Street to 15th Street.
The Special Trash Service code requires that rental properties in these neighborhoods sign up for the program through their contracted trash haulers. The Boulder Police Department’s Code Enforcement Unit will issue a summons to property owners and managers of rental properties in these two neighborhoods if they are not signed up for the program, regardless of the extent of trash violations on their property. The fine for a violation of this section of the code is $250 for a first offense.
The Special Trash Service code requirement was implemented in 2003 as a result of a community group recommendation. During tenant move-in and move-out periods, which occur at the beginning and end of the University of Colorado’s academic year, the Goss/Grove and University Hill neighborhoods experience significant trash impacts. This program was initially developed as a pilot program in 2002. Its success resulted in the development of the specific code requirement.
