If you're coming in from out of state and spending the weekend in Colorado I'd drive up to Frisco for a few hours on Friday. Drive up over Loveland Pass and Swan Mountain Road, go for a hike on Peaks Trail in Frisco, and then grab a beer at Highside Brewing or Outer Range before heading back down to Denver. I'd recommend doing this on Friday to avoid weekend traffic on I-70.

really depends on what you wanna do if you wanna go to Boulder, Mtns, or Colo Springs then rent a car. If ur ok with Ubering around town then that better, DENVER Traffic is shit. The fact that ur only experience with dispensaries is only in LV, you won’t be disappointed no matter where you go. It also depends on what ur poison is flower, edibles, dab, concentrate. I’d stay away from edibles if ur not used to them. 

I’ve lived here over 40 years so PM me if you want more details.

Just posted. Denver will be drawn 1st tomorrow.

Not necessarily first draw, but will be tomorrow. Toronto is listed first in that list for today but ended up as last drawn, fwiw.

Denver is tomorrow! I’m waiting on STL as well with my flight already booked. Denver has been skipped over for so many tours but 2014 was so epic it’s awesome to see we got a show. 

There are a ton of good suggestions already for the out of towners, I just wanted to add a couple.  If you don’t plan to leave the city and your close to the venue don’t bother with a car.  I highly recommend checking out Finns Manor if your a beer or spirits fan.  Deviation Distillery for an amazing G&T, Adrift for Tiki. Close to the venue before the show Brass Tacks is great.

Best brewery in Denver?

Best record store in Denver?

Locals. Start thinking about a good locale for the wishlist preparty. Ideally walkable to the arena and a large enough place that can handle a couple of hundred folks coming and going for the afternoon. Also if there are some great local charities that you are aware of they align with the band’s vision and mission, toss those out as well.

Record Store: Twist and Shout on E. Colfax

Too many breweries to name just 1 or 2.
Every one of us with significant Denver area brewery experience has a differing opinion.
My best advice is to go to a tap house where you will find lots of options.

Denver: Falling Rock, Freshcraft, Euclid Hall, Star Bar
Boulder: Backcountry Pizza
Broomfield: Colorado Keg House (only CO beers on tap)
Ft. Collins: Mayor of Old Town

Parrys pizza....not very good pizza but depending on which location you go to 60-120 taps.

evenflow82

I chose BA...
Do we have to wait until Jan 27th to figure out if it is GA or reserved? Thank you for any clarification, I'm a little anxious now (in a good way).

I notice denver has 9:30 listed as the time.  

The show will begin at 9:30 or am I missing something?

devindoughty

I'll be there. First show for me at Pepsi Center since 2003....I feel like Ed opened that one with a line about it being their last show. Super pumped folks!

What are folks getting for Denver, GA or Reserved?
