There is a bunch of stuff to do. The question is where are you staying? If you are staying near DIA you aren't going to be able to do much. If you are staying in the city that, of course, is a different story

Casa Bonita - The food sucks, but it is a great, if somewhat weird, experience.

Noa Noa - Really great Mexican food.

Gabors - Good jukebox, pretty good drinks, pool.

Thin Man - Pretty good bar on 17th, extremely strong drinks, Jesus motif.

Watercourse - Pretty awesome veggie food.

Famous Pizza - Name says it all.

of course if you want to go to shows I would recommend the following;

Benders - www.benderstavern.com
Hi-Dive - www.hi-dive.com
Larimer Lounge - www.larimerlounge.com

Of course for record stores, there is Wax Trax, which is kind of meh. Twist & Shout is nice, but big, and sometimes a pain in the ass to navigate through, especially on the weekends.
Or you could just say "fuck it," rent a car, and go up to the mountains. I generally recommend that over anything else. Have fun & feel free to PM if you need more info or recommendations.

I still refuse to believe "he" exists.

See also: the almost-but-not-quite appearance at the 77BOADRUM thing.

I remain: skeptical.

I use: a lot of colons.

I almost forgot about not being able to go see my favorite band of all time play a once in a lifetime show
I almost forgot, thanks

I only kind of exist these days, barely hanging in there

There are mountains west of the city.

Sometimes it's fun to go up there and walk around.

Buffalo Bill's grave (you know, the only true grave) is actually kinda fun.

Is the Lion's Lair still there? I was there about 5 years ago and it was a cool dive. Saw Creeper Lagoon play behind the bar and made dinner on Tombstone pizza and cheap beer (especially since I didn't have to drink as much at that altitude).

yes. I saw rachel's there. It may have decent music sometimes, I don't really know. Sorry if I've missed any of you there, or somewhere else.

I think the new Art Museum is only free one saturday out of the month. And I believe they just upped admission. But it is an amazing place. They have a lot of badass contemporary work.

The mountains are awesome.

I've never been to buffalo bill's grave.

Yes to everything Jeremy said.

Liks Icecream. The best.

I don't know, go see the gates of NORAD?

while in Denver this weekend, you should EAT A DICK
