Denver/Boulder has always been a great area for live music. While there aren't as many venues or musicians as the "music" cities like Nashville, NYC, LA, or Austin, the clubs here usually have good turnouts and musicians can actually make money playing gigs.
This article below indicates that even more music venues are coming.
DenverPost.com - Concert giant in need of a venue: "The Anschutz Entertainment Group is looking to build a new 2,500 to 6,000 capacity live-music venue in Denver as it tries to gain a larger share of the area's market, industry insiders said Tuesday....

"'In this town now, you need your own space,' said Fey, pointing to Live Nation's contracts with the Paramount Theatre and the Pepsi Center, and its ownership of the Fillmore Auditorium....
"'Denver has had more growth in venue size in the last 20 years than any other major market,' [Dan Steinberg, founder of Seattle's Square Peg Concerts] said."
