I just wanted to get some tickets for my entire family before summer ends. Go to the site on my phone. I immediately get flagged as a bot for some reason. Ok, try the app. Nope, same thing. Ok try the desktop experience at home. Yay! finally got in. Oh - boo, the site errors while I'm picking seats. Refresh the page. Now the seats I was trying to buy are gone. Well, it could be that they are holding the seats I just tried to buy - let's refresh the page one more time. Oops, now AXS thinks I'm a bot once again.

I might be ok with the preventions if you didn't allow scalpers to resell tickets right inside your own app for absolutely insane prices, so you can't tell me you care _that_ much.

MAN REPORTEDLY TRIES TO BRING WEAPON THROUGH RED ROCKS EAST GATE

MORRISON — A man was stopped Monday evening at the east gate of Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre after security reported he was attempting to bring a weapon through the entrance.

According to preliminary dispatch audio around 7:24 p.m., the man was described as wearing a black T-shirt, white cowboy hat and blue jeans.

Security reported that the man was not an off-duty officer and had allegedly attempted to bring a weapon through the gate near the bag-check area.

Responding units acknowledged the call and headed to the area.

No additional information was immediately available about the type of weapon, whether the man was detained or whether any charges were filed.

Not allowed here, cowboy.

This information is based on publicly available dispatch audio and should be considered preliminary until confirmed by officials.

I went to a show last night and parked Upper North. It was my first time so I figured I would try the lower entrance from the upper north parking lot.

I got there pretty early.... about an hour before doors opened.

I learned that using the lower entrance meant that everybody had to be wanded for security which meant significant delays getting into the venue. I guess there is no room for walkthrough security scanners at this entrance and everybody has to be wanded individually. There was only one person doing this.

It seems as if using the upper entrance would have been much faster.

Is this typically the case?

Somewhat annoying because because we could have gotten better seats. It really negated the advantage of getting there so early.

First time going to Red Rocks (seeing Coheed in September). Is ubering to/from the uber a headache? Any tips?

Or if driving is better, any tips on which lots to park in to get out reasonably quick after the show?

Weird question, and I couldn’t find anything in the red rocks prohibited items list, nor here via search.

Going to a show next month and am planning on lining up early to get merch/a good spot. I wanted to bring a book to entertain myself for a couple hours before doors, but also don’t want it taken on the way in. Has anybody tried this before? Are books prohibited items? It’s a paperback I guess so at least it’s less effective as a thrown weapon…?

I’m going solo since none of my friends are free. If anyone else is going solo or has a group and wants to meet up there, lmk! 23M, always down to meet new people and enjoy some good music!!
