Didn't even occur to me to post this.  Tonight, the band Carbonleaf (Celtic Rock with a folksie twang) opens the show at Redrocks at 6:45, followed at 9 by the movie Princes Bride on the Huge Screen.  For those who've never seen Carbonleaf, they are a fantastic show, with lots of energy and amazing musical talent (Carbonleaf.com to hear some of their stuff).

For those who've not seen Princes Bride...

...Have you been living under a rock?

Princess Alice

For the record, Carbonleaf is AWESOME!!!! 

I would plunder a thousand ships to be in town tonight to catch this show.

Sad panda.

Sorry folks, I posted this pretty much as I was on my way out the door.

Yes, Carbonleaf was fantastic, though I think 3/4 of the crowd was there for the movie, so they didnt have quite the call and response they were looking for.  Still, fantastic show.

And Saber, you'll be happy to know they will be playing Boulder Sept 23rd and Denver Sept 25.  That will make shows 4 and 5 in colorado this year (they are playing Telluride tomorrow night...almost temped to make the 6 hour drive).  I think they love Colorado.

Oh, and Princes Bride was good too.  There is nothing quite like hearing 9000 people chant in unison "Hello.  My name is Enigo Montoya.  You Killed my Father.  Prepare to Die!"  Damn near gave me chills.
