Coop & Chrome Dreams: Looking Back on Chicken Coop + Gearing Up for The Ultimate Car Show!

We took a detour to 90s alt-rock glory at The Chicken Coop in Black Forest on Saturday with our cover of Stone Temple Pilots' "Interstate Love Song," proving that even a Dumpster Fire can be beautifully melodic.

What an absolute blast we had at our very first show at The Chicken Coop in Black Forest, Colorado! From the moment we stepped in, it felt like home. The Coop has that perfect vibe – a truly loyal local customer base who genuinely appreciate good music. We absolutely loved seeing so many of you engage with us on stage, singing along, and even sharing how much you appreciate our music. That connection is what Dumpster Fire is all about, and you guys brought it in spades!

We also have to give a massive shout-out to the incredible staff at The Chicken Coop. They took such great care of us all evening, keeping our water bottles full (crucial for a high-energy band like us!) and making sure our beers were refreshed. We even spotted a few of them grooving and dancing to "Mony Mony" and other energetic songs throughout the night. When the staff are having as much fun as the crowd, you know it's a special place!

We broke out a new addition to our set list at The Chicken Coop with Cheap Trick's classic "Surrender."

A huge thank you also goes out to owner Sherri Koch for her incredibly kind compliments. Hearing that appreciation means the world to us, and it fuels our fire! We truly can't wait to come back to The Coop for another round of rock and roll. You've definitely earned a special place in the Dumpster Fire family!

Shift Gears: Next Stop, The Ultimate Car Show!

While we're still buzzing from The Chicken Coop, it's time to shift gears and get ready for our next exciting gig! Mark your calendars for July 26th because Dumpster Fire will be bringing the jams to The Ultimate Car Show at Creekwalk Marketplace at 10 a.m.

Seriously, what better mix can you find than classic rock anthems paired with classic cars? It's going to be an awesome morning of horsepower and high-energy tunes. Imagine rocking out to your favorite Dumpster Fire covers while surrounded by gleaming chrome and roaring engines! We're stoked to be part of this event and add some musical horsepower to the horsepower on display.

We're hoping to see all our new friends from The Chicken Coop, and all our loyal fans from previous shows, come join us for what promises to be a unique and unforgettable experience.

Back East Bar & Grill: Rocking with Our 90s Grunge Crew!

What an absolutely fantastic night it was returning to Back East Bar & Grill in Colorado Springs! We always love playing there, and this past show was no exception. We were thrilled to see a vibrant crowd of 90s grunge fans among the passionate live music lovers who came out – you guys brought incredible energy and really knew how to rock out with us!

Dumpster Fire rocked Back East Bar & Grill with 90s grunge hits like "Gotta Get Away" by The Offspring.

The team at Back East consistently provides an outstanding experience. Their great stage and setup really allowed us to unleash our full energy, and the acoustics are top-notch, making every riff and vocal hit just right. Plus, the friendly staff always make us feel right at home, and we loved engaging with all of you throughout the evening. It truly felt like a big rock and roll family reunion!

We're already looking forward to our next return to Back East, but before that, we've got an exciting gig coming up! We'll be hitting the stage at Chicken Coop in Black Forest on July 5th. We're really hoping to see all the familiar faces from our previous shows, especially our new friends from Back East and My Brother's Place, join us for another electrifying night!

Metallica's Enter Sandman is always a Dumpster Fire crowd favorite.

Come keep the Dumpster Fire burning hot with us!

Igniting the Stage: Our First Time at Crystola Roadhouse!

What an incredible night! Last Saturday, Dumpster Fire had the absolute pleasure of playing our first-ever show at the Crystola Roadhouse in Woodland Park, Colorado, and we were truly blown away. From the moment we walked in, we knew this was a special place. The sound and lighting system were top-notch, making our performance feel absolutely epic, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home.

But what really made the night unforgettable were the passionate music fans who came out! Your energy and enthusiasm were contagious, and we loved every minute of engaging with you all. A huge thank you to everyone who made our debut at Crystola Roadhouse such a memorable one!

We brought a dose of pure 80s magic to Crystola Roadhouse in Woodland Park, Colorado, with our high-energy cover of Huey Lewis and the News' "Power of Love."

We also had a blast introducing some new tunes to our setlist, including a crowd-pleasing rendition of "867-5309" by Tommy Tutone! If you were there, you know it was a party! This is just the beginning, too – we're already working hard to add several more new songs to our repertoire over the next few upcoming shows. Get ready for even more surprises and high-energy rock!

This experience at Crystola Roadhouse has us even more pumped for what's ahead. We're eager to bring our fiery performances to more stages and connect with even more amazing fans.

We cranked up the grunge vibes at Crystola Roadhouse in Woodland Park, Colorado, with our intense cover of Seven Mary Three's "Cumbersome."
