I don't know what they would do but I would at least make sure you start your hike on the down-low. once you are a few hundred yards from them, there is little they can do, even if they do see you.<br /><br />2. rattlesnakes - that is rattlesnake country so just be aware. make as much noise as possible and dont go sticking your appendages in between rocks or in holes or anything silly like that.<br /><br />have fun.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01046783523904483236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-35080701793720270812009-08-01T15:25:39.213-04:002009-08-01T15:25:39.213-04:00My friends have been getting in line about 2pm and...My friends have been getting in line about 2pm and are getting a spot in Lower GA each night. bring a tarp and duct tape. last night i was on row 13 thanks to friends that got there in line about 2:30 with a tarp.<br /><br />the back hill is just that...the huge hill behind red rocks. its a hike but there are trails up there. there has been a few hundred people behind red rocks on the hill each night. you cant see the band, but you can hear the music.the jokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470086475945241880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-34426455853643590522009-08-01T13:55:38.501-04:002009-08-01T13:55:38.501-04:00Anyone know how fast the lower GA section has been...Anyone know how fast the lower GA section has been filling up?

They were doing some weird things with the parking last night, forcing everyone to park in a mowed field below the south lots. Makes for a long walk. go early to get to the north lots. if you have difficulty walking, tell the parking security that you have a medical condition (my wife's pregnancy worked nicely) and ask to have access to the upper or lower north lot. Once we got up into the actual park, there was available parking everywhere. not sure what they were trying to achieve.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01046783523904483236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-76060945240827188072009-07-30T10:23:05.759-04:002009-07-30T10:23:05.759-04:00Officially the lots open at 3pm but you can get th...Officially the lots open at 3pm but you can get there earlier if you want, most likely you will park in upper south.<br /><br />best place to fill a water bottle is gonna be a bathroom.the jokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470086475945241880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-36769817453166697102009-07-30T04:31:13.237-04:002009-07-30T04:31:13.237-04:001) The Red Rocks website says lots open at 3 pm ea...1) The Red Rocks website says lots open at 3 pm each day.<br /><br />2) wheres the best place to fill a water bottle in Red Rocks... the bathroom? or are there water fountains somewhere?Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14911632714315612476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-89469712448952352322009-07-29T20:24:26.110-04:002009-07-29T20:24:26.110-04:00vending in a way that you can't walk around, m...vending in a way that you can't walk around, meaning if you have a stove, a tent, etc...is probably not gonna fly.<br /><br />im going to be walking around with tee shirts and will try not to have them taken away...blatant vending around the venue is generally discouraged but the area of the lots is so large its hard to catch everyone. we are all curious to see the size of the crowd tomorrow.the jokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470086475945241880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-7148862427003241502009-07-29T20:01:25.550-04:002009-07-29T20:01:25.550-04:00Thanks a mil for the inside info!!

I have no idea why this is true, but I've been in Colorado going to Red Rocks shows since 2000. It is true. As you're walking up from the lower south lot, there's a fork in the road from which you can look to the left and see the crowd waiting to get patted down on the ramp. Proceed straight rather than turning left, then go up 12,000 stairs. A little more work on your legs, but worth is every single time.Ziggy Stardusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15565954966392255061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-63712137435446259612009-07-28T17:43:01.454-04:002009-07-28T17:43:01.454-04:00Joker nice blog post I will be seeing you on Thurs...Joker nice blog post I will be seeing you on Thursday my friend. I called into Red Rocks this morning they will not be stopping any cars from entering the park. Also they will not be stopping anyone from hiking the back hill during the shows. I plan on making the hike on Friday. Unless anyone has an extra. So straight from the Red Rocks Operator lots are open and so is the back hill for the ticket-less and destitute. Everyone be safe and have a good set of shows. <br /><br />Phish On.Nicholas Stockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12825111987191843991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988004.post-38379130127432653322009-07-28T13:22:59.851-04:002009-07-28T13:22:59.851-04:00Regardless,

I'm referring to what I saw at Hampton where one girl literally had blankets and hoodies on roughly 20 seats in her immediate proximity. Upon trying to even get NEAR any of these seats, she screetched at me and started yelling obscenities.<br /><br />Again at Asheville this happened with a group of two people who has reserved 2 (2!!!!!) entire rows Page side.

Ill add some more comments to the original post but i prefer the I-70 route.<br /><br />RE: Tarps<br />I jsut go to Wal-Mart and get a blue/grey/whatever tarp folded up in a package. I keep it in the package until i get through the gates and duct tape it down to the benches. I suggest this over a blanket cause secuirty will make you take out the blanket and go through it, wasting valuable time in a land grab. Get a tarp big enough that 3-4 people can defend if you are gonna try this. If your tarp is too big, like if 2-3 people are saving room for 20, forget it. But if your crew is 8 people and they can all stand on the tarp and you have 3 people defending it, it will work. ask the question on www.panicfreaks.org, those panic kids are pros and thats who i learned this from.the jokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470086475945241880noreply@blogger.com
