The Peter Boyles Show - February 21, 2026 HOUR 2:
Peter Boyle is joined in studio by legendary concert promoter Chuck Morris, who recounts his path from graduate school in political science to building Colorado’s live music scene. The conversation covers the early Boulder club days, opening Tulagi’s, launching Ebbets Field, and partnering with Barry Fey during the rise of large-scale Colorado concerts.
Morris shares firsthand stories about booking early shows for Eagles, managing the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and seeing Steve Martin open shows before becoming famous. The hour also includes behind-the-scenes memories of Red Rocks, major multi-venue concert nights, and Morris’s trip to the Soviet Union with the Dirt Band, arranged through Philip Anschutz, including performances in Moscow and Gorky Park.
