Josh Ritter + The Hold Steady in Colorado this week (win tickets!)
Coloradans! Josh Ritter is returning to our fair state for the first time since his jaw-droppingly rich Telluride set this summer, way off beyond them hills.
This time he is coming closer to the more populated regions, playing Wednesday night (11/10) in Fort Collins for an eTown taping with The Hold Steady (what? really? I know, right?!).
Thursday night Josh is headlining the Ogden with his full Royal City Band, with support from a Denver musician who goes by the name of Thieving Irons.
WIN TICKETS, YOU SAY?!
Surely. Fuel/Friends has one pair of tickets for the eTown taping in Fort Collins to give away, and two pairs for the Denver show on Thursday night. To win, you must email me your favorite Josh Ritter lyric, and why you love it, and tell me which show you are entering for. I’ll be at both shows, looking forward to it.

Name: Heather Browne
My favorite Josh Ritter line is from “In the Dark”:
We saw your old flames
And some were burning yet
It made us smile to see
Just how well tended each was kept
I love those lyrics because I feel like they were written just for me. I am reminded of all of my past loves that still hold places in my heart. I am touched that someone has noticed…..
I would love to see him in Denver on Thursday!

It’s not fair how amazing your month in music is. NOT FAIR. But awesome.
