sick lineup

ThomThom · 04-28-2008, 01:31 PM

Very nice.

Young blood · 04-28-2008, 01:40 PM

the best part about it is they can only sell 8,00-10,000 tickets a day because of venue capcity

which is "9450"

Last year was so nice to able to move around with small crowds and meet many of the artists.

miseducation · 04-28-2008, 02:42 PM

First fest with Hercules and Love Affair (Unless APW gets them... Please, PLEASE!)

What a great lineup though, so varied and full of great small bands.

How does the stage setup work here? I am correct in saying there's only one stage at Red Rocks, right?

Young blood · 04-28-2008, 02:48 PM

Last year they had 5 stages. A lot of people will bitch because the hike up and down the stairs.

There is the main stage,
A stage up top behind where all the seats are,
Two conference centers/red rocks museums/stages underneath and behind the seating area that are like small clubs,
Another stage off to the side of the main stage that all works out quite well.

And the beer sponsor is fat tire...mmmmmm...

Im sure this lineup is what you will see at treasure island festival too.

TeamCoachellaHellYeah · 04-28-2008, 10:17 PM

this looks fantastic!! what a lovely gift to have at red rocks!

kimmiesplitz · 04-28-2008, 11:20 PM

I love Fecher and Monolith and i'd climb up and down stairs all day for the lineup!! Remember all bands were small at first...

Young blood · 04-29-2008, 12:08 PM

Website is up with ticket prices

$110 woohoo!

http://www.monolithfestival.com/

PS Fecher is a cool guy, he gave me a bunch of free swag last year.

ThomThom · 04-29-2008, 12:12 PM

Wow, this is a fantastic lineup.

canexplain · 04-29-2008, 12:13 PM

so yb, did ya see, guess we wont have the pig tomorrow

... i dont get off work till 500 so wont get to waters before 630 or so... might see you in the smoking section during a break .... i have to go to mono this year .. so tics are up eh ... hummmmm ....x****

Young blood · 04-29-2008, 12:30 PM

They better have a backup pig! We are in sec 148 we will look for you and join you for a beer.

HunterGather · 04-30-2008, 08:20 AM

I've never been to Monolith, but theres multiple stages right?
If so, where exactly are they located?
When I went to Red Rocks for Daft, it didnt really look like it was big enough to have 1 or 2 extra stages...but then again, I wasn't REALLY looking for that...

check their website they have pics from last year in them you will see the new Belgium stage that was up top.

shakermaker113 · 05-01-2008, 07:50 PM

I really want to fucking go to this. better wait for the treasure island lineup and see the overlap though. hmm.

I need to visit red rocks some time though. and this line up is great. and fat tire? drool...

Young blood · 05-01-2008, 10:10 PM

I think the presale went pretty quick I tried at about 4:00 and it wouldnt let me buy tickets.

Sushov23 · 05-01-2008, 10:11 PM

I really wanna go to this. With all the bands playing around september, I have HIGH hope for Street Scene this year.

The schedule is already up on their website.(Monolith) Overlap is a breeze it so easy to go from stage to stage with very minimal sound bleed over. I think its because the way redrocks is designed.

No Marco, although this would be a great reason to FINALLY go to my beloved Red Rocks for the first time, financially I can't do it.

the only assigned seats from what I can see is if you go VIP and thats $225 and there are only 500 VIP passes. It wasn't worth it last year. Plus I know you have a special pass to get into the same areas.

Tickets are 110 for 2 day plus ticketmaster prices im pretty sure.
