From a strictly multiple-times tourist standpoint, I *love* CS. It is, in fact, my favorite place in Colorado.
I have a friend who lived there for several years, and he found it to be amenable.
So, SM, you're giving up the session/touring musician thing? Or will you still be able to grab gigs from a base so far removed from LA?
Also, Mr. Noodle...are you in The Springs? If so, then can we count on some musical collaborations between you and SM in the future? That'd be way cool, dudes.
