Would you have to pay the varsity for them to play there?

Venue: Red Rocks

Open: North Mississipi All Stars

Middle: Allman Brothers/Widespread Panic

Headline: Widespread Panic/Allman Brothers


Each Band playing two sets though out the day and into the night. The middle show and closer are interchangeable I don't care as long as they both end up on stage together at the end.

I mean I know BR has a horrible taste in music but it's not so bad that any of those 3 wouldn't sell out the Varsity by themselves

The Gorge is also an incredible place, I'd love to go.

Took these when I went to the Red Rocks. Surreal place.

Maybe for the historical experience but not for the music.

I have never understood the craze behind punk rock

I just don't get the appeal of showing up to watch a band who intentionally play their instruments badly.....


I'm sorry I just don't understand.

There are exceptions of course but for the most part the genre is built upon bad musicianship and being proud of it....


that baffles me
