The Greatest Venue In North American

The Red Rocks Amphitheater is one of the most sought after places to play in front of thousands. Every year there are more and more artists that can happily say they can check Red Rocks off their list of venues. Just recently I went to an electric concert that featured Dillon Francis and Big Gigantic.  The show was outrageous and honestly the best concert I have ever been to.  The light show was top notch, the acoustics and the live saxophone were something not of this world. Almost as if electronic music has always been missing something and it happens to be a jazz instrument. If you can imagine yourself there, as the "raging" is going on around you, if you take a step back and glance at the crowd, it feels as though you are part of a barbarian community that is close to collapsing. But if you look closer you notice that everyone is just like you, and it gives you a sense of belonging and excitement. As the bass continues to drop and the vibrations are shaking your core, there is almost a separation of reality.  What I'm describing sounds like an awesome trip but no drugs are needed to have the time of your life. When the light show comes together and matches the bass perfectly, and the acoustics are giving your ears a new perspective on music, a very distinct and uncommon sound is born, a sound that can only be found at Red Rocks.  This blog will show my experiences and prove that Red Rocks is the greatest Venue in North America and possibly the world.
