Panic @ Red Rocks 6/26

Really enjoyed my first Panic show at Red Rocks. We only went on Sunday, thinking it would be a pretty mellow show . . . not so much! They jammed pretty hard, according to K.

We met some nice people and even got in with some guys that had flown in from Chicago. K ended up helping them put their tarp down and running in to claim us some pretty awesome seats. Row 16, even with the sound board- Schools side (which is apparently how your supposed to describe your seating, in relation to the band member's side - as I quickly picked up on). Anyway, part of his crew didn't make it out in time to get at the front of the line and so K helped him out. We had gotten to Red Rocks early, just to hang out and enjoy the morning but there were already a few easy-ups and several people in line even though they didn't let you into the amphitheater until closer to 2:00 p.m. - Die Hards! We put our chairs in line and figured, why not get a good seat. People literally run up that ramp and if you've ever been to Red Rocks, you know that's no easy jog. Since I also had a bracelet, I went on in as well carrying our load- which was a haul too! Either way, Panic came on about 4:30 and sounded great. We actually ended up sitting next to a guy that had moved out from Kansas City just a couple months ago and was right close to us in Lawson Hill last weekend for Telluride. How cool!
