Last summer Chels and I went to see one of our favorite musicians, Bassnectar, at Red Rocks in Morrison, Colorado. And this year we are doing it again! It is one of my favorite concerts at the most amazing location.There is a large, tilted, disc-shaped
rock behind the stage, a huge vertical rock angled outwards from stage
right, several large outcrops angled outwards from stage left. Some of the rock formations in Red Rocks slope as much as 90 degrees,
while others tilt backwards. The southern monolith, that bears
resemblance to a ship, is named "Ship Rock." On the opposite side of the
Amphitheatre stands "Creation Rock." Both of the monoliths are taller
than Niagara Falls. Red Rocks is 6, 450 feet above sea level. It has a
seating area for up to 9,450 people in between. The short path and about 15-20 steps to enter it freaking wore me out! I was panting by the time I got up there the oxygen is so much different then Oregon.
Here are some photos from other groups and the venue....
