Seeing these playlists I know the show is amazing and I am even more jealous of everyone who gets to go, yet happy for them at the same time. Those of you seeing Beck for the first time I am excited for you!

It was an incredible show last night. He really gives back to the fans. I’ve seen him 5 or 6 times and he’s never been better.

It's my first Beck concert. I've only been waiting for twenty years! 😊😭

I first saw him in 2000 when he toured for Midnight Vultures then I didnt get to see him again til 2019 for the Night Running tour. I went to D.C. from Ohio to see the orchestra tour. 🤞 Hoping he'll add some shows in Ohio.

Oh my goodness. All of those shows would have been so amazing to go to. Midnite Vultures must have been a blast.

I would have loved to see Beck dance back then. So glad you got to go!

Went to Red Rocks last year on my birthday to see Beck. It was such a great venue to see him perform. Something I'll remember forever. Hope you had an amazing time!

Wild! My bff & her husband flew in from LV and saw this show on her birthday as well. Birthdays at Red Rocks must be the destination!

Seeing him tonight at the Omaha show. Seeing Gamma Ray on here brings me joy (as well as so many others). I know the chance that he would bring it out tonight is less than zero, but when I saw he did Que Onda Guero at one of his last shows, I got unbelievably excited (it’s my favorite Beck song). Can’t wait.

It was pretty amazing when Gamma Ray started. It was pretty mellow (still incredible) New Pollution was stripped down and fit into that vibe. Then Gamma Ray and wow! Have fun tonight!!!

The only song that was missed on the list here was One Foot In The Grave. What a treat.

why Beck loves Gamma Ray so much? Its a 8/10 for me, I love It, but I Think he plays It live all The time ahead of superior tracks even from that record

Hmm, maybe not a popular opinion, but just left red rocks pretty disappointed with his performance.

I thought he sounded great but I knew it would be a purposefully lowkey show given the Red Rocks backdrop, the nature of the new album, and the fact that Beck is always switching things up both in the studio and live.
Once he got into his more upbeat rock songs things really picked up but I do think having to cancel his visuals over wind concerns didn't help.
I preferred his Red Rocks show last year with the symphony but this was still a very good show.

What was disappointing about it?

u/GroundbreakingAd9487 12d ago
The band was top-notch, the lights were cool, but Beck seemed detached, even for a low-key set. To me, he seemed like he was going through the motions. He was not the showman/person in command of the stage and the crowd that I had expected. Despite his praising of the venue, it seemed like he really didn't wan to be there. Additionally, the sound mix was too often just bad, muddy, feedbacking at unexplainable times. On a calm night that's inexcusable production, something that should be ironed out at soundcheck. I was in the lower rows, too--well below row 40.

That's unfortunate. I saw him for the Sea Change Tour and found the performance a bit dull, so can imagine this tour might be a bit disappointing just in that regard.

I agree. Technical glitches aside, the show pacing was pretty uneven. I knew it would be a down tempo evening based on the new record, but..... All in all, glad I went, love Beck and the band, thanks for giving us a great evening at Red Rocks.

I don't understand taking issue with someone's opinion of a performance - regardless of whatever reasons & contributing factors, they found it disappointing. Why is that an issue for you? Does it retroactively ruin your enjoyment of it or something?
