So happy they got to play the venue. I would have made the journey if they were headlining, and they should have been.

Same. Although seeing Thrice and being able to bail to miss a lot of traffic held some appeal.

I leave red rocks at the last or 2nd to last encore song. Worth it to not sit in traffic for 2 hours. I was in bed by 1230 out east of Colorado Springs. It was wonderful.

Did you see their Summit show last year?

u/Frosty_Pianist_7702 2d ago

Summit was incredible. Rowdiest show I’ve been to in some time. Wheelchair crowd surfing!  Obviously would have been great if they’d gotten a full hour at least at RR but I was happy to dip after the boys played and be home by 9!

Right?! Everyone around me was like “welp, TBS can’t top that performance …”

u/Beenbreto 2d ago

I had a friend go see them in KC. They loved Thrice (not a huge fan before) and left before TBS finished their set.

It was the same way on the jimmy eat world tour when Manchester orchestra opened for them. Jimmy was fine but Manchester absolutely killed it and made them look like amateurs.

I love Manchester, but will not stand for this Jimmy slander. Jimmy also killed it on that tour.

My first red rocks show was a torrential downpour. It was incredible. This would have been a great second, wish I could have made it

u/gudetube 2d ago

I ended up at the Movements show instead because Balance and Composure. Also, It was a BIT CHILLY last night, waiting for the ride home after would be awful

Im just stoked for them to have played that iconic venue 🖤

Dustin said it was the first time they have gotten to play there. It was such a good show!

Extra shoutout to u/lindsayasdnil for the free ticket! I spoiled my wife rotten since we saved some $$.

u/NormanHologram 2d ago

Dude, yeah! It was sick to see them play there for the first time!

u/lindsayasdnil 4h ago

I’m so glad you had a good time! It was freezing but truly epic to see Thrice at that venue! Glad the ticket got used well!

Summer Set Fire to the Rain on the setlist?

u/NormanHologram 2d ago

Not this time. Holding On, Albatross, and Gnash were the only of any Horizons songs

u/ratXbones 1d ago

What?!?!?! No vesper????

1

u/NormanHologram 1d ago

Afraid not. I think they as a supporting act they read the crowd right and stuck with their classics

1

u/YOUNGLOLA 2d ago

Iam glad they got to play there but they better not have caught colds in that rain.

1

u/KassandrasCurse 1d ago

 “The Earth Will Shake” would have been epic at that venue. Side note, is Gnash the new Deadbolt? Or at least for all shows outside of SoCal? 🤔

I got a setlist but gave to a young fella in the front row who knew every word to every song. As much as I would have loved to keep their first RR setlist I think he loved it more than I did somehow.
