Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

Opens the show with a pistol shot of energy. Super crisp and tight. Heater

Love the unexpected segue from cryptical. This second set is pure primal fire
