T-Minus 10 days until "the Fellowship of the Jacket" begins their journey out West. It will be a long and arduous journey, surely rewarded with many drinks of cool, dank brews and fine naked wenches.  For we shall bask in the glory of the Great Jacket as they destroy the Ring of Rock and melt the faces of we, the celebrating peons.  All hail the Great Red Rocks!
You need it.  That's for sure.

Two weeks from tonight we'll be Rocking Red Rocks with what will surely be another great group of Jacketeers!

Roll Call looks great. :thumbsup: Looking forward to meeting all those I haven't yet had the pleasure to, as well as sharing another classic show with all those that I have.

I hear you Teo, my brain cell tends to misfire too much these day. ;)

It might be off right now, but were you at the Yum show? If so, I think we might have met briefly at BBC's preshow. Then again, I wasn't feeling any pain that night, so if that was you, it'll be good to meet you again when I can remember for sure.

West coast? Man, I hope you figure out where Red Rocks is between now and then.   ;)

Anywho, I think catching a taxi is unlikely after the show, but if they do drive up there after the show, it would be at the bottom on the south side, or the top of the north side. See the seating chart on their website. How are you getting TO the venue? You might check with other who have offered rides here, or you might start a new thread asking for one.

Hey guys-
I posted some time ago I can give rides before or after the show, if you don't laugh at me for driving a mini-van. I plan on going up early afternoon to get in line, hopefully with the rest of you.  It looks like I can carry up to six more.

PM me to make arrangements.

Very cool.  8)  :thumbsup: It's this type of thing that makes this place, and the people here, as great as the band itself,imo. :beer:

Wish we could help out but our rental will be full the one night and taking the Party Bus the next.

I hope we can all meet up in the lot pre-show. It'll be great to meet some more really cool Jacket fans.

grabbing a taxi after the show is a tall order. if you have something pre-aranged (cab, limo, etc) they can pick you up in the small upper lot (handicap/drop-off lot)

but dont expect to stumble out of the show to a row of waiting cabs
