RIP to Tina Turner! 

We lost a musical icon and “Queen of Rock n Roll” yesterday when Tina Turner passed away at the age of 83.  For over 60 years Tina Turner entertained audiences with massive records such as “What’s Love Got To Do with It” “Private Dancer” and “Typical Male” and her family says she passed away peacefully in her home in Zurich, Switzerland after a long illness.

1stBank Center closing

After just 16 years, 1stBank Center will not only be shut down but will be demolished by next spring. With a closing date of November 30th, the venue which housed concerts and sporting events has been heavily in debt for some time and the Broomfield city council voted to close the building.
