Wow! I've been to alot of shows in alot of different places. Red Rocks has always been somewhere I've wanted to see a show. I can't wait.

Who did you see there Brock?

I've seen Tom Petty (can't remember the year), REM (last summer), U2 (1983), and a few others that escape me. Just fantastic every time.

I also want to go to a show at The Gorge in Seattle, which I've heard is awesome too.

Roger that on The Gorge. Never been but want to go. I googled it and it is seriously in the sticks but looks amazing. It's not really that close to Seattle.

Been there many times when it's empty (it's a fun tourist site when the fam comes to town). I saw Blues Traveler there July 4, 2007, and I'll be seeing Flight of the Conchords there in may. Definitely a cool experience.

I love me some Blues Traveler. Their debut album came out about the same time they turned me loose at the college radio station. I got to meet Popper backstage at a solo show in Ann Arbor.

I too have not seen a show there but made a stop by there one time when I was up in CO. Very cool venue. There was just "some guy" up on stage playing a mandolin to his heart's content the day went.

That's one of the coolest aspects of the place IMO. I don't know of many other venues in the world where a musician can just walk in and play to get a taste of what it would be like to play there. There's almost always a decent number of people there as tourists, exercising on the stairs, and that type of thing.
