Never Play Red Rocks When You're Stoned

Here's the dealio, It's really an "Experts Only" venue for playing if you're a little higher than need be. It's OK in the day, but when the sun goes down they light up the outcroppings on either side. This gets a bit weird then because you lose the horizon and your brain wants to make the stratified rock look like it's level. This leads to the illusion that the stage is tilting forward and you 're going to slide off of it! Whoohoo! Remember that the supports for the roof are at odd angles as well.
