SHORT TAKES
Fiddle-De-Dee. If the neighbors around Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre think
they have it bad, consider the poor concert-goer. No food or beverage-not even
a container of water-can be brought in. And to ensure the rule is obeyed,
security-types pat you down and poke through your backpacks and purses. Seems
they want you to buy their concessions-if you can get a loan. A couple of
burgers and beers will run you about $15. You might want to stay home
altogether if the sky looks threatening because umbrellas aren't allowed
either. The Fiddler's folks view bumpershoots as potential weapons. Guess you
should count your blessings that the main attraction plays for just one
hour... "Up the Creek" - June 17,1988
*** Comsumer Tip: Eat before you come to the show....these people do serve
food but for too much and not enough..hence the note
above...
All Concerts are subject to change.

FG Note: There are not enough womens facilities at Fiddlers Green, expect
LONG LINES and plan accordingly....Drink lots of wine and beer...*<;->...

For your info...
How Red Rocks Was Christened: It is said, that on July 4, 1870, a group of
pioneers from the town of Mt. Morrison undertook a "Champagne March" to the
Red Rocks. There, Judge Luther of Mt. Morrison delivered the christening
address which ended on this note: "We the assembled citizens of Bear Creek
and vicinity, hereby christen thee the "GARDEN OF THE ANGELS" and accursed be
he or they that changeth thy name". This pronouncement did not have any great
effect. People from that day forward called the area the Park of the Red
Rocks, or as it is known the world over now: RED ROCKS THEATRE
