Wow. Reading about:

A Toby Keith concert. In Saudi Arabia. Attended only by males. With no alcohol. Wow.

Yeah. I didn't mention that part. I was already sorry enough that I missed it.

You lost me at Toby Keith

First Red Rocks show of the year , lots of A+ music tonight ! Chris Stapleton coming on shortly. He's incredible live, might be the best vocal talent I've ever seen. On the acoustic songs, he didn't even need a microphone. His voice projects across a venue ridiculously well.

**FLS** · 05-25-2017, 06:30 AM

Such a cool looking venue. Is it assigned seating or general admission?

**hatchgreenchile** · 05-25-2017, 07:21 AM

GA is typically the upper third, rest is reserved. Amazing venue !

Foo Fighters crushed BottleRock last night. FKNA - opened with All My Life and blew the lid off

**puma** · 05-30-2017, 09:20 PM

Midnight Oil last night was sweet. They are a favorite of the wife. Peter Garrett is a trip.

**booner** · 05-30-2017, 09:52 PM

Midnight oil is touring?

Fuck yeah

Yeah, it was pretty intense.

I was talked into going to a Def Leppard show with Tesla and Poison opening. The show was on Cinco de Mayo, aka Cinco de Metal. Requisite pregame Mexamerican food, complete with margaritas and tequila shots resulted in us missing Tesla. I was okay with that. Poison was about as I expected. Def Leppard was not. Holy shit they rocked it. I was a fan as a kid, but haven't listened to them in years, so I was surprised at how many songs I knew. The weirdest thing was how few people were standing. How the fuck do you go to a rock show and just sit there? Unless tix were free, I doubt I'd go again, but (lots of) booze and friends made for a really good time.

Sleep last night was soooo good.

**iamTRuTH** · 06-04-2017, 09:38 AM

Saw Streets Dogs and Face to Face at Punk Rock Bowling last night in Denver. Solid show, Street Dogs are always great. Face to Face was fun but loud to the point of barely being able to tell what was playing.

Tickets bought for a road trip to LA. Thanks for the heads up.

Going to be an oldies summer for me and the Misses. Blondie/Garbage, Midnight Oil, Bryan Ferry, and Stevie Winwood. I am stoked.

**FLS** · 06-04-2017, 05:22 PM

Foo Fighters!!!!! Always a great time.

Hey shred, was looking at tickets for Roger Waters but they were stooooopid expensive.... Mind me asking how your seats were and how much?

**Name Redacted** · 06-04-2017, 10:38 PM

Most I've ever paid for a concert, our seats were great. $226..... But probably my only show this year so whatever.

**jackstraw** · 06-05-2017, 06:57 AM

Caught Dispatch last night for one of their 'warm up' shows for the upcoming tour. They're missing one of the core 3, so working some stuff out before they hit the road. Free show, but had to win tics.

**Jong Lafitte** · 06-05-2017, 08:30 AM

John Prine put on a hell of a show at Red Rocks last night.

**warthog** · 06-05-2017, 09:52 PM

Hit up Dave Mathews and Tim Reynolds at a new amphitheater in Jacksonville, right next to where the Jags play. Great venue, 5,000 max seating. Sound was a bit off for an acoustic show, especially with DM mumbling like he does. My buddy was sitting at the sound board, so I went over and hung there for a bit. Sound was way better. This was only the 3rd show there, so I guess it was to be expected that they were working out the kinks.

Going to U2 in 2 weeks. Got the stupid seats for that show.

Going to Red Rocks show and ended up getting tickets for their pre-show the night before. But had to buy tickets. Really looking forward to it even if they are down one.
