Red Rocks Your Socks OFF!


Last night we headed over to the Red Rocks music venue for Macklemore headlined by Big Gigantic.  We didn't really know who either of them were but it was one of the last shows of the summer so we figured we'd give it a shot. Let me just say this off the bat, this could very possibly be the best place on earth. It is an outdoor theater where they have carved stands into the rocks. The sight is absolutely breath taking even when your just tailgating.

Now we didn't actually go into the concert because we are two broke jokers fresh out of college but what we did was an incredible experience in itself. After mingling in the crowd of tailgaters for about an hour, our roomy Alex took us on a journey. We hiked up some extreme terrain behind the rocks for about an hour and perched ourselves on the top of a small mountain where we got a view that could change ones life. The Red Rocks theater, with the entire city of Denver and all its glory in the background. A full moon rising topped the cake and we enjoyed the show for free with some other extremists that made the hike as well.

The night was full of surprises but the quote of the night is as follows: "EVAN!!, Do NOT pick up the rocks, they are in fact cacti!!" Jokes on me for trying to do a Monty Python impersonation clicking together two stones. Both of us ended the night with some prickly hands but with a nice show from a hoola hooper hotty!
These pictures just don't do justice to the beauty and magic of this place. If you have the chance to go, take it without hesitation and see for yourself.

Sidenote: The way that subway makes their sangiches is upside down! Might be just me but its frustrating! The meat goes on the bottom and then the veggies!! (At least that's how I like my sangiches) You would think that one of the most famous sangich grab n go places should be able to get it right. Do better subway.
