I am driving from vegas for the Red Rocks show then driving back to Vegas via all that gorgeous scenery, but i do have a question, slightly off topic but important as hell to me... Will i be able to take a compact digital camera into the Red Rocks Amp?, or will it be a case of the old shove it down my pants trick??, can't wait to bang my head during Empire, well up with tears during smokin gun, then do a little Donna summer dance during Touch me part 2.. you rock James and the gang!! :D

Hello all - couple of things here

1 - I'm new to the board and semi new to the band, listening the last couple years

2 - Someone was asking about the poster.  Guess I can't post the link in my first post.  Look down to the next one.

3 - I have an extra pair of reserved tickets in row 31 - center available.  Face value plus fees which works out to $100 for the pair.  Only problem is I'm currently traveling and will be out of country in a few hours and back in Denver Thursday afternoon.  I'd have to meetup in Denver late afternoon or at the show somehow.

Email me if interested.

Someone was asking about the poster.  You can check that out here - http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/84896

As far as camera' go you should be fine with a small point and shoot.  It doesn't mention anything on the tickets about it.  I usually put my camera in a pocket in my jacket which is then stuffed in a bag.

Check the Red Rocks web site for a list of what you can bring in.  You may be surprised.

Hey all, I'm flying in from Washington DC on Wednesday afternoon.  Gonna kick it in Boulder for the night and then make it out to Red Rocks for some pregame.  Does anyone know the best way to catch a ride from Boulder (public transportation, hitch hiking, friendly MMJ fans)?

Also, anyone going to see Soulive and Lettuce on Friday, or the Rock the Bells tour on Saturday?  I'll be there on my concert summer vacation.

Stoked for the poster too.

There is a bus from Boulder to Red Rocks: http://mrbusdriver.com/boulderbus.html
I'll be coming through Boulder earlier in the day, but I can only fit 2 more peeps in the car - PM me if you want a ride.

leaving on jet plane to Denver and Boulder for work and catching the show with a friend....  he is new to MMJ..
How cool is that?

I cannot wait to see the Black Keys...it will be my first show for them and one of many for the jacket.

I love this band.... Lets Rock and roll with that sticky wet hair of Patrick's on his new green drum kit.

Yeah!!

I'm trying to get to this show but have never been to Red rocks. Is there GA up front? Is that where I want to be?

It's totally on! Pretty much a logistical nightmare but I'm making it happen! We're driving in from Utah early Thursday.

Crispy are you going to fly a flag or what?? I would love to meet some of you before the show!

Completely stoked for this show...This will be my 6th time seeing the Jacket, including Red Rocks and Telluride last year. Those were both brilliant shows (and I'm a huge Dylan fan as well) but I felt that they easily outshined Bob on both occasions.

We snagged reserved tickets, because Red Rocks has recently screwed up the seating chart massively. The first 10 rows and last 10 rows are GA. (It used to be that 15-20 rows in the middle were reserved, with the rest GA.) Personally, I think part of the appeal to Red Rocks is tailgating/pounding beers in the lot prior to the show.

No worries though, the show is going to be incredibly awesome no matter where you're sitting. Hope everybody has a great time!

Looking for a ride from Fort Collins.......anyone interested? :)

I am hearing rumblings that MMJ and the Black Keys may be playing at one or more Democratic convention events.  It makes sense, because the DNC is in Denver this weekend!   If you are already in Denver for the weekend, I would do some sniffing around and see what you can find out.

Looks like it will have to be Friday if anything since they are in Texas on Saturday and Sunday.
