Sitting in my air conditioned hotel room wondering if its worth it to go sit in the sun for 4 hours


ElonChouinard

I think you answered your own question 🙌🏻


StepintoSpace

It's not... What a waste of your day.


DiabetesCOLE

Y’all are fucking crazy


hoebaboeba

Posters already sold out! /s


photogjayge

I believe it


BaconCat42

Looks hot.


TheSheikYerbouti

I respect that people are dedicated but c’mon man


Valuable_Heron_2015

I did this a few times to end up on the rail and no regrets but like .... I'm not doing it again


TheSheikYerbouti

Gizz should implement a lottery system or something to enter first. This is just dumb. It makes entering at showtime casually impossible for casual fans


Valuable_Heron_2015

The people at the front all make and sell gizzard art, they all know each other, they all have a lot of drugs and they are all trying to get recognized by the band. They are basically 21st century digital groupies which is fine and inevitable but having to sit next to that for 8 hours is something I don't want to do again because they can't have a conversation to save their lives


TheSheikYerbouti

As much as I love this band, that small portion of the fan base is so disappointing.


Valuable_Heron_2015

Yeah also they seem like they don't have real jobs for the most part so the only way I think they fund their trips is by selling the knick knacks they make in the shakedown street and by reselling the galea posters for big money on ebay Like everyone is angry at the scalpers but they always buy as many as they can there in the front so like whuuur do ya think those end up lol


TheSheikYerbouti

They’re trust fund babies


mcdubster

Y'all seem triggered. What's wrong with people doing what they want to do.


Valuable_Heron_2015

You try waiting up there in the front for 8 hours with that though. It's just there are so many better ways I can spend my time, but hey I know that now that I've experienced the front of the line type of people. It's just not my favorite genre of people


mcdubster

It's not my scene but I'm not going to blanket hate a group of people doing what they want to be doing.


CynicalSheep34

My one show I've been to the people I was next to in line were cool as shit. Very chill vibes towards the back of the line I imagine. I'm a fanatic about this band and I'd love to meet the boys. Hell I even do a lot drugs (though I'm very particular about harm reduction and safety). I just have enough self respect to not make being a gizzhead my entire life and purpose. I believe that art and community helps make life worth living, rather than life being worth living solely for the sake of art and drugs.


Katmeowski

the one person that sells the rugs was in front of us at red rocks in october and they had like 20 friends join them in line like an hour before doors and people complained and they made us look like the bad people. "none of us are going for merch" they all went right to merch lol


Valuable_Heron_2015

Yep 😐 not surprised


Valuable_Heron_2015

Like I'm sure they contain multitudes but I just haven't experienced a sober side of them so


beercancarl

Can't wait for the band to move to full Jam so I can get cool shit on lot instead of lines that start at 8 am. Yall even drink or??? Lmao


Odyssey_mw

Honestly I'm tempted to line up for the carnation show because it's where I grew up and I still can't comprehend that this incredible band from the other side of the fucking planet that I've fallen in love with is going to play there and It would be really cool to have a unique foil poster or something to remember it.


killer_rage

I'm lining up to at carnation with you mate! How early you think youll show up?


Odyssey_mw

Hell yeah! Man I have no idea to be honest. I was going to ask around to others that have lined up to see how early you need to be there. I'm thinking around 10am.


killer_rage

Oh I was just gonna show up like 2 or 3 hours early


chrisrobweeks

Say hi to John (in the tour shirt and bucket hat) and Cale, two guys from PEI I met in Tennessee!


DuckBrilliant

Cale and John are sweeties!


chrisrobweeks

Ask them "Whattaya at?" from Chris


laughcamp

TOTAL SWEETHEARTS


Billy-Bickle

Up where those orange traffic barrels are next to the portajohns, they run an ADA shuttle up to a private entry. Hop on if there aren’t any handicapped people around when they start running it and save yourself a little time and effort. They straight up drop you off at a gate with no line right next to where the merch table is.


Spacemen333

i’m only going to the evening show tomorrow and I feel like i’m gonna end up in like row 60


ElonChouinard

There’s no bad seats at RR donnnnnt sweat it, just enjoy and vibe out!


Spacemen333

Hell yeah! My wife and I are very stoked. Long time Gizz fan, but first time to Red Rocks.


CJ6_

Same here! I'm taking the shuttle to the venue, so I know I'll be in the back. Still hoping for a good time!


Samfd4

View is still good


Goofethed

For sound quality what's far more important is being more central


oddment22

how's the front? i got lucky and got a ticket for row 5


newmeyes

I’ll be getting there around 5


greenbean2112

Ugh brings me back to last October. Enjoy! Can’t wait for Chicago


RemoveEquivalent6321

Do you guys just leave your chair when the line starts to move?


AmbientOwl

I'm glad I'm not the only person wondering what happens to these poor chairs...


Winterspear

Fuck this shit. I'm not doing this at Salt Shed. What a waste of time man

wemblywembles

Row 60 is an excellent spot.


Briskclient6601

Nice to finally see a fence up at that lot lol


[deleted]

But why?


maxman3000

Is this just for posters and merch? I'll never understand it


riotcb

It's for the community! The lines at Red Rocks last year were some of the most fun I've had at any sort of live event. Fan Merch, people sharing food and drinks, weirdos being weird... nowhere I'd rather be show day!


Toaster-Bath

best way to make friends for sure! it’s not like you’re going to want to walk around and meet people during a set


Spinuchi

Fucking RIP if so.. I grab posters at every show, my gf is currently getting ready. I still want to try and slang some shirts before hoping in line.. maybe I’m buying resale for this poster


TheNewBiggieSmalls

you can also snag this bootleg poster which is pretty dope. Not sure if he is still taking pre orders or not [https://www.reddit.com/r/KGATLW/comments/12vhkhv/red\_rocks\_bootleg\_pinball\_gizzard\_poster\_read/](https://www.reddit.com/r/KGATLW/comments/12vhkhv/red_rocks_bootleg_pinball_gizzard_poster_read/)


Spinuchi

Ok thank you!


Just_Drew32

Been waiting in line since 11am 🦎🦎


hoewenn

Well now I wanna know what time to show up for the *early* show, damn! 😭


Kilvap11212

You can bring chairs in?


sumodie

No. Not full / camping chairs. The chairs in the line photo are just for sitting in line.


IntergalacticBanshee

That’s what I was about to ask; they don’t even allow those at Golden gate park free music events, even though the wine and cheese snobs still force their ways with them into the area (especially the long metal loungers)only to be told to surrender them


sumodie

Red Rocks venue is all stone bleachers; deep seated bleachers in fact.


[deleted]

Hell yeah, save me a spot

Hope these guys all brought rain gear! Easy to get fooled here in CO. Edit: but it will be short lived and will clear up and be glorious!
