DHM:
In the News

 
Last time we featured a great article about DHM and Pandamen from the Yellow Scene; later in the month DHM programs were written
up in the Boulder Weekly and the Longmont Times-Call:
 
"Like so many kids, Gary Lennox once dreamed of being a rock 'n' roll star. As a teenager, he hung around with kids who played guitars until one day they asked him to fill in on bass, even though he'd never played one."
 
"Some children still get out their oars and fishing poles for summer camp. Others grab their guitars and violins."

Reznor vs. Radiohead: Innovation Smackdown
 
"Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails have been taking turns giving the music industry the finger: the British band made headlines last October for releasing In Rainbows without the support (read: control) of a record label, and Trent Reznor's group followed suit with last month's Ghosts I-IV.
 
So, Wired put together a 10-round, voting-enabled smackdown to find out which band is really blazing the trail of innovation.

Today at the Dog House

Friends of the Dog House,
 
Welcome to the April newsletter! March was a busy month here at DHM, and we have lots of news to share with you.
 
First, we've just launched our brand new Rock & Roll Birthday Parties. Now that we've got a couple of these under our belt, we feel confident in saying they're a great way for kids, teens or adults to celebrate -- we include rocked-out makeovers, interactive video games in our new Rock & Roll Hero Studio (65" flatscreen, smoke, lights, and of course our killer PA system to give a real rock experience). Parties for kids and teens also feature a performance by a DHM teen band. We think this concept is the first of its kind, and so far they've been a huge success, so please check out the page linked above and keep us in mind for your next birthday, graduation, or any other party!
 
The next important piece of news is that we will once again be featured on the CW2 Morning Show w/Chris Parente. We'll be on at 7am, so early risers please tune in and check out DHM alum FlipCrash, plus an as-yet-unnamed band from our Spring Intensive Workshop and a sneak peek at our new Rock & Roll Hero Studio! DHM was also featured in the Boulder Weekly and the Longmont Times-Call -- see sidebar.
 
As we're enrolling students for our Summer Rock & Roll Camp for Teens (and Junior Rocker Camp for Kids), we're also getting our spring bands ready for the final gig at the Fox April 13 -- stay tuned for a special event email with all the details.
 
In the last couple of weeks we've had some terrific blues musicians in Studio A filming for CCTV54/Citizen's Community Television in Boulder: Lionel Young playing blues fiddle, and Tad Robinson with his band, Custom Deluxe. We also had the opportunity, as a sponsor of the CHUN People's Fair, to provide backline and sound mix for 90 of Denver's best bands at the UMX Auditions March 29-30 -- we'd like to thank our partner Kris of Microtone Studios for his excellent speed mixing and general good mood during these two days of chaos.
 
                    Thanks            Peace            Gary
