Day 159: Concerts at Red Rocks Amphitheater

I first went to Red Rocks Amphitheater last summer for a series called, "Film on the Rocks." They were showing movies in this giant venue and thousands of people were showing up to watch them all together.  It was rather incredible, as we watched The Princess Bride and hundreds of people quoted the movie together, broke into uproarious laughter, and enjoyed this classic movie out in a gorgeous, natural creation.

I made it a goal to go back to this place for a concert after I missed the Mumford and Sons concert there in 2013. It's odd that it would be such a big regret, but I honestly had no idea that this venue was as spectacular as it is.

I was finally presented with an opportunity to see several bands I love with a friend of mine with whom I used to attend concerts in college. Earlier in the day I'd heard it was going to rain and it put me in a sad mood since I'd been looking forward to this concert. Upon arriving we were escorted to the upper parking lot (luck, I say) and found our way up to our seats.

American Authors, The Script, One Republic... none disappointing. It did not rain. It was the magic I believed it would be... I felt high from the atmosphere and performance. I cannot deny that this could easily become an addiction at the level of joy it delivered to my soul.

P.S.  Many apologies for the sudden lack of posts. The joys and lessons of life just picked up in a way I did not anticipate. I will be posting on some of my adventures in bulk days - as I went on several day excursions over the last month.
