So, I know I haven’t written in a while. What can I say? It’s been busy. I’m going to catch everybody up via a series of several posts. I figure that if I try to write it all out in one post nobody will read it…it’ll be too long to hold your interest. So here goes…post number 1.
Zach and I went out to Red Rocks amphitheater on July 4th for a concert. Most of you haven’t been to Red Rocks before, but I assume you’ve at least heard of it. If not, go to YouTube and type in “Red Rocks U2.” They did an amazing concert there in the 80’s that has great views of the amphitheater.
Anyways, we got to the amphitheater about 4:00 and the concert started around 5:00-5:30. First up was Collective Soul, followed by Live. Great performances from both. Just as it started to get dark, the last band—Blues Traveler—came on the stage. Blues Traveler has been playing at Red Rocks on the 4th of July since the early 90’s. The neat thing about this performance was that they went on just as it was getting dark. If you’ve ever been to Red Rocks, you know that if you sit in the upper seats you can see all of Denver and its southern suburbs spread out. Which means you can also see all of their fireworks. We had the concert right in front of us and the fireworks farther out. It was fantastic.
We left right before the concert ended to beat traffic, and ended up home before 11; just in time for the fireworks at Coors Field. We were able to sit on our balcony and see the fireworks as they went off a block away. It was an amazing way to spend our first fourth of July in Denver.
