I was getting frustrated because I hate wasting time and missing shows AEG was good enough to let me review.Īlas, we found the AEG rep, made it into the venue, got a couple tall cans of Coors Banquet, found some seats just north of the exclusive VIP section, and settled in for the show. I’m not 100% sure that the call failure was on my end or her end, but I know the call could not be placed. I attempted to call the AEG on-site contact three times but the call was not going through. This is information that the box office attendant and myself have never experienced and, therefore, it took us some time emailing to get that information back. For some reason or other, our tickets were marked as “in hand”, a designation I hadn’t seen before but apparently meaning the AEG rep on site would have them. It took us quite a bit to get in because the staff at the box office had my name on the list but not my tickets. Ahhh, the madness of show hopping to shoot and review. Luckily other event-goers were already on site and there was no one around it was just her, a patch of grass, and some moonlight. Thirty minutes later and we were flying into the Red Rocks parking lot where my compatriot ended up having to urinate on the side of the road yes, seriously. We bounced before the headliner, Kalo, got on stage, but I gotta say…those were some dapper looking dudes. Excellent rock, and would definitely check them again. A two-man set up, lead singer and drummist, they’re a mismatched pair with one looking more like an 80s computer geek dad and the other looking like he could play backup for Metallica. We’re interested in all the music, obviously. Still, some good quirky rock and roll is always a benefit to my life. Turned out, fortunately and unfortunately, that this was not the same And The Black Feathers that I had been interested in seeing. Then it was a 30 minute trek back up to Lost Lake Lounge where we missed the opening song but caught the otherwise full set from And The Black Feathers. My colleague and I ended up having to drive to Fiddler’s Green to secure the Royalty Tour tickets in person and transfer them to another writer (check for the review by Solomie Ebebe). I had also been talking to the good folks at And The Black Feathers for a show review at Lost Lake Lounge because, contrary to popular opinion, I can really go in on some rock. We had gotten access to review Flume a couple days in advance of the show thanks to tour management (shoutout Reid and the AEG team), but we got last minute access to see Nas and Mary J Blige at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre, mere hours before. We might have been late for the show but we were early for Flume, by the skin of our teeth and the luck of the emails. ![]() ![]() Sign Up For The Fan Pre-sale LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! FOLLOW RESPECT MY REGION ON FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM& TWITTER.All photos by De La Vaca for Yellow Scene Magazine Since we’re unsure about Flume’s upcoming schedule with more music releases and tour dates, I strongly encourage fans to make it to the Red Rocks show. He was an early pioneer and paved the way for a lot of future artists and producers. Flume has become a big name in EDM as he helped push the sound boundaries of the music genre. So to be playing a headlining show at Red Rocks seven years later is monumental for him. So far we’ve been flooded with new music.įlume rose to prominence as a teenager with his scene-starting self-titled debut in 2012. The artist assured his fans at the end of 2018 that he would be ‘back in your life’ the next year and he didn’t disappoint. ![]() Hi This Is Flume has been streamed over 21 million times while “Friends” is already at 2 million streams since it dropped on Wednesday.
