HERE'S WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT THE ROCK N SOUL CAFE...... 

Performing Musicians Comment:
from Stewart - WadiRum 
Hey there,    I just wanted to say thanks again for last Saturday.
We had  a great time. Your venue is the best in the region, as far as I am concerned.

  The best place to catch rootsy, homegrown musical talent is far and away the Rock N Soul Cafe.
On practically every night, you'll find a handful of acoustic guitar strumming songwriters pouring their hearts out to an appreciative audience.
And if you want to join in on the fun, the Rock N Soul hosts a weekly Open MIC every Monday night.
There's no better place to launch your sensitive singer-songwriter career.
Also worth checking out is the Acoustic Brunch every Saturday morning, where you can get some delicious food and listen to some mellow tunes.
And for the kids, every Friday there’s an interactive kid’s concert, hosted by local fave Sue Schnitzer.

  In the upcoming weeks, check out the eclectic Latin-style guitarist Beto Hale (8/18), an informal session from local songwriter
Rebecca Folsom (8/24) and the best female songwriters in the county during the Boulder Women's Songwriter Night (8/30)."

Sheryl, Sam, & Bobby,

Just want to say thanks again for Fri. It is truly one of the nicest places we've played, not just because of the physical lay out but because of you're support & friendly reception of us & our friends. We really appreciate your professional approach as well. ....
~ Thanks again, Pat, Jim, Adrienne, & Terry (One Lucky Guy)

 "By the way, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Lynn's music and the Cafe last night! What a perfect kinda place! Not much else like it anywhere I know of this side of Chicago or San Francisco or even NYC!!" peace, wayne

"These days I head over to the Rock ‘N’ Soul Café here in Boulder as often as I can to play songwriter nights and open mic sessions, and to sit back and listen to some fine local and nationally known performers. 

Sam and Sheryl Radetsky run a fantastic music venue with friendly and warm welcome, excellent coffees, refreshments, and a fine selection of delicious foods. 

So if you have the good fortune of living here, or  being around this area for any time at all, make sure make your way to the Rock ‘N ‘ Soul Café, not just for the sessions I get to play, but all week from Monday through Saturday for some of the finest music you’ll 
hear in this entire region." - local musician and 
songwriter Dan O. 


Hi Guys!

"Boulder has needed some place like this for a long time!" "What a great setup!!" 

What an absolutely fabulous evening. Bill really enjoyed playing last night. Thanks for your openness and charm which is always present. I keep telling people about the cafe and they want to come...I can't wait until they do. I just wanted to say thanks again.

PRESS: "With speakers built into the wall a full size > soundboard and lighting typically found in much larger venues, this performance space is acoustically one of the best in the county." 

SOME of the over 110 ARTISTS WHO HAVE PLAYED HERE ALREADY: Steve Conn, Richie Furay  Stephen Allen Davis  Nelson Rangell  Taylor Mesple  Dave Beegle  Steve Mullins  Pete Wernick  KC Groves  Michael Ronstadt  Face  John William Davis Liz Barnez  Rocker T  Jus Goodie 


"I am a Denver based booking agent and I have heard wonderful things about your venue. It’s great to have a new venue in Boulder. I look forward to working with you and meeting you."

"I just wanted to thank you for creating such a wonderful venue in Boulder -- the sound system is truly amazing and it gave me great pleasure to play on it, and to listen to the other performers on it. You are performing an invaluable service to the community, and I wish Rock N Soul every well-deserved success -- having hosted a couple of house concerts and such I can only imagine all the effort and expense involved in opening a venue like this, and my hat is off to you for taking the plunge and doing so." 
- Matt Meighan

"With speakers built into the wall a full size soundboard and lighting typically found in much larger venues, this performance space is acoustically one of the best in the county.
" Erik, The Yellow Scene 

"This is the best venue I've ever played. It's really something...This club...coffee shop.. Whatever you want to call it, you know, people got to come out here and support this place and let something like this be here. Because I've played all over the United States anyway, and it's just the sound system, the stage, the seating, the people that own it, everybody. It's just so fine to play here. I've played suck holes, I mean the worst places on the planet and also some supposedly really good ones. This one is phenomenal! And for it to be in Boulder is just freaky. So, this is something special. I'm gonna support it. I'm gonna play here again. I just fell in love with the place."  - Stephen Allen Davis

 "Isn't this a great venue? Boulder has needed something like this for a long time and I will definitely be supporting The Rock N Soul." - Richie Furay 

"Thank God for the Rock N Soul." Paul Soderman

 

 Hi, Please add me to your email list. I've heard nothing but great things about Rock N Soul from my Boulder friends since ya'll opened. I'm a singer-songwriter, now in Texas but spent 15 years in Boulder & still get back there a lot.


Hi, I was at your venue Tuesday for Songwriters' Night and enjoyed myself immensely. You have a great room for music! I'm so glad Kevin told me about it.


I came to your cafe for the first time to hear Taylor Mesple, and was impressed with your lovely venue to hear live music in our community.

Please add my email address to your email-ing list to receive notices of upcoming concerts.

Thanks, and you're doing a great job!

Barbara


The following comments from our Dave Beegle show:

"I talked to S this morning and was raving about your place!
The Rock 'N Soul Cafe is dynamite!!!

L and I enjoyed our evening immensely! The entertainment was fabulous, the venue delightful, the hosts wonderful, the acoustics fantastic, the decor incredible, the play list astounding, the price right! 

I couldn't believe we were sitting front row center to such an amazing concert. I told L she was lucky she lives in Boulder so she can just pop in any time."


To Sheryl Radetsky Subject: RE: The Rock 'N' Soul Cafe 

Hi!  We really loved Dave Beegle!!! 
There were 6 of us who attended and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for having him perform and thanks for opening such a cool coffee house.
