Well Denver, you can now place yourself in the history books of Hot Chelle Rae’s stellar career! If you made it out to the show you noticed leader singer, Ryan Follese, get a little emotional and mention that tonight was the band’s FIRST sold out headlining show. Yeah, pretty sweet and some of us can say “we were there”. OK so on to the meat of the show….

From the opening lights and remixed beats of “Beautiful Freaks” one knew this was going to be a killer show and the guys did not disappoint. They packed the 75 min show full of fun antics and tunes including hits; “I Like It Like That”,  “Bleed” and  “Why Don’t You Love Me” with guest vocals by tour mate Cady Groves. They closed with, the now multi-platinum selling single, “Tonight, Tonight” and yes the balcony just about came down in the Bluebird Theater from the fans jumping and singing at the top of their lungs.

I’ve seen the guys a few times (as recent as Oct ’11) and they keep getting exponentially better! Talking to the guys before the show on the bus you cannot help get intoxicated with their excitement and love of the new album, how life is going and how much they REALLY do love and appreciate their fans. Do not be surprised to see them packing out the Fillmore or larger venue next time they are in town. Their days of smaller venues are pretty much over. Hate to say it, but you snooze, you loose.

Check out their latest album, “Whatever” on iTunes

The “I Like it Like That” video or the “Tonight, Tonight” video are also quite a bit of fun!
