After a show of bust outs and rarities, night two at The Ogden found a lot of people focused on what was happening outside of the theater. With Denver’s unpredictable springtime weather delivering a nasty mix of sleet, snow, and rain, many were more worried about Friday’s Red Rocks show with Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann of The Grateful Dead being cancelled, moved, or unbearable to attend.
