Yesterday after Costco and doing stuff around the house, we took off around 4:30 to go to the concert. We went to Gerry and Marci’s and then all headed to Elways for dinner. We made it to the amphitheater around 8pm, 30 minutes before the opening act was over. Good call to skip them.
The Black Crowes came on around 9 and it was non-stop dancing and fun for the next 90 minutes. We, and the entire crowd, didn’t sit down once! We were in the 5th row which was prefect as we were eye level with the band. We left a couple songs before it was over to beat the crowds and walk back to the Village. It was really loud, and the bass was turned up so much, your whole body shook with every note. That was the only downside, the sound could have been better. Still, an epic show as they’re such a good band and have tons of great hits over the past 35 years. Their first album came out in 1989.
Marci was so buzzed from eating gummies! She’s my age and I thought she was going to pass out or for sure and I’d be carrying her back! We found one of those rickshaw bikes and I told Gerry and Marci to take it. Gerry has a bad foot and is 78 years old. Lori and I walked back to Elways where our cars were parked. Marci was so funny all night!
We were asleep by midnight and today have Lori’s team (5 of them) over for dinner at 6, right after the Bronco game. Looks like some snow up high tonight. Only above 10,000 or 11,000 feet though, so no worry.
That’s it, time to go. I’m meeting Tom who left Carbondale on his way back to DIA, in about 30 minutes, down by the highway to get some samples. Tom is my guy from California who worked a wine festival in Snowmass the past few days.
Have a great day, take care and God Bless.
