Illegal Pete’s to feed touring acts

I realize that this post may be old news (since everyone else in town has already covered it), but still good news nonetheless. Andy Thomas and Virgil Dickerson of Suburban Home Records have teamed up with local burrito chain Illegal Pete’s to help feed musical groups touring through our fine state.
For those unfamiliar with Suburban Home, they are a local punk-centric label with a slight alt-country feel (their roster includes Drag The River and Two Cow Garage, among others). For those unfamiliar with Illegal Pete’s, they are purveyors of some of the best burritos in the state. With multiple restaurant locations throughout Denver-metro and Boulder, Illegal Pete’s features an extensive menu (including potatoes!), in addition to a full bar at many locations.
Inspired by on-the-road experiences with touring bands, Thomas and Dickerson started the Starving Artists’ program with the hopes of giving touring bands a good meal and a place to unwind. Anyone interested in participating in the program is encouraged to email music@illegalpetes.com.
