This will sound odd to most of you, but...

Have any of you heard The String Cheese Incident?

We're going to Colorado in a couple of weeks and I wanted to go to a concert at Red Rocks. Listening to all of the bands that were going to be there that week, they were the only one that sounded decent when listening on Spotify. But then again, I only listened to parts of a few songs on 2-3 albums.

I know nothing about them, was hoping someone here heard of them or had listened to them.

FTR, the Black Keys are going to be there that week, and I'd be ok with them...but I'm not paying $1000 for 3 tickets. I might pay that for an REM reunion show, but not the Black Keys.

 

[OrlandNole]

They're a jam band, if you're in to that type of thing. Load up at the dispensary on your way in.

 

[mnole03]

I’d risk waiting for the Black Keys prices to come down right before the event.

The cancelled our fireworks, so we’re going to Blues Traveler on the 4th.

 

[Whiskeydeltadeltatango]

If you like drugs and the early 2000s version of Phish, you are in good shape.



*I could see them putting on a good visual show during the concert.

I still giggle at the idea of having a song that says something to the extent of you are all too stupid for it to matter as long as the chorus is good you will sing this. (Hook)

Yeah, have a decent following out west.

The best concert I have ever attended was Black Keys in Kansas City in 2010. It was just the two of them, before all of this electronic shit, and the outdoor venue held maybe a couple thousand. Incredible that two people could do what they did. I saw them a few years later at Sprint Center, completely different experience. Sometimes you're lucky to be in the right place at the right time.

Love them, great band live.

If you like chicks that haven't showered in days and hairy female genitalia, then you are in luck.

 

[Jerome Silberman]

They'd be a great show to catch at RR. I've only caught part of a set at bonnaroo one year, but I've seen The Kyle Hollingsworth Band(led by the STI keyboardist) a couple times and enjoyed it.

 

[Funky Bunch]

I just want to know more about the String Cheese Incident that gave them their name. Could have something to do with Op's mom

 

[CarterHall]

Yes I have!!

Not my cup of tea. I like songs with beginnings, middles and ends. Not middles, middles and middles. I could see the dispensary coming in handy though.

Before the darkweb and cryptocurrency, the only good way to find reliable acid was to go to a jam band show and pretend to be into the music.

 

[lucas80]

I really want some string cheese right now. Luckily I have some in the fridge.

I had my first nitrous and ballon encounter at at Grateful Dead tailgate.

Phenomenal band. I may or may not have “fallen asleep” durning an outdoor show at an amphitheater somewhere in Wisconsin years ago. Love SCI. It would definitely be worth it and Red Rocks would be a great place to see them.

Have seen them many times in many locations including Red Rocks. You'll be at Red Rocks, during an "Incident," hell yes it's worth attending. I'd recommend the show on the 16th with Leftover Salmon, but all will be good (Sunday will be Grateful Dead heavy if you're into that).

Bro, guys don't giggle. Quickly edit your post before anyone notices.

I giggle, cackle, and EL OH EL on the reg.



Not sorry.

 

[torbee]

They're no Trampled By Turtles, but they should put on a decent show if you smoke enough weed.

I thought this an actual incident and I was intrigued. leaving thread sad.

Underrated snack fer sure brah.

 

[SeaPA]

They are very talented; jam band with a lot of bluegrass sound. They are the main attraction at a big festival in North Florida every year, Suwannee Hulaween

WTF, pics?

 

[SSG T]

Well, we made it to the parking lot. Doors open in an hour. Chance of rain the next couple of hours, then should hold off.

 

[SSG T]

If anyone likes bluegrass, highly recommend Yonder Mountain String Band. They're the opening act and were fantastic. The girl playing fiddle and the dude playing mandolin could rip.

 

[SSG T]

And whoever said there would be a lot of pot smoking...yes, yes there is.

beautiful night here in Morrison. Bandimere speedway is louder than red rocks tonight. Liking the venue?

Love it. The wife isn't hugely thrilled, but she's only ever been to mainstream country, so she's a bit concerned.

I figure it's a good night if you don't leave and have to go to the hospital for stitches. Which is normal for most of the concerts I've been to.

 

[luvmyhawks]

Careful on those steps. I’ve seen many people leave red rocks to go get stitches lol.

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

Do not speed in Morrison!

 

[SSG T]

1st set down, these guys are a ton of fun. I think we're about 1 1/2 hours and 6 songs in

 

[SSG T]

Yeah, some dude, either drunk or high, did the slide down a set. It wasn't the guy selling pot, edibles, mollies, lsd and probably a lot of other stuff earlier.

Allie. She’s from Chicago. Used to play in a band with some of my friends. She was way too good for them and they all knew it.

Enjoy whatever you decide on. Red Rocks is the best live outdoor venue that I’ve ever been to. It’s simply awe inspiring being there for a show.

Yep

Some folks I know big into the 420 scene are regular attendees of their concerts whenever they are out here.

Well, Red Rocks holds about 9500 people, there were about 9000 of them smoking pot. My daughter and I were fine with it, my wife was a bit freaked out. Considering the wildest concert she's ever been to is Alan Jackson, that's not surprising.

How are they different from early 90's Phish ?
