Estimated read time 6 min read

Twenty minutes before the doors of The Ogden opened, the line to get in already stretched down the street and around the corner and air was buzzing with excitement. Once inside, grey hair peppered the room as 60 and 70 somethings who had probably seen Dylan or Cash in their prime jockeyed for position at the bar next to fresh young faces who will surely be telling their children that they saw Jason Isbell in his.

Neil Young – July 8th – Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Estimated read time 6 min read

A light rain trickled down from a sagging, slate colored grey sky. A mostly older crowd—with some youngsters peppered in—ambled up the storied steps of Red Rocks. In between the rocks a colorful crowd was gathering, decked out multi-colored ponchos and rain jackets. While the air was a bit chilly for early July, the air smelled like sweet rain and Colorado’s finest as Neil Young delivered a monster set chock full of classics like “Old Man,” “Walk On,” “Cowgirl In The Sand,” “Unknown Legend,” and many many more.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse – August 6th – Red Rocks

Estimated read time 7 min read

If there is one aging rocker whose legendary status is truly deserved, it’s Neil Young. He has excelled as part of the quartet Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, as a solo artist writing folk leaning acoustic tunes and epic electric rocks, and as the leader of music’s first Grunge band, Crazy Horse.
