great review, tiff. Your transpo problems at the beginning may give me nightmares. :laugh: *never leave without your blades*
I love your Stevie moment. :woohoo:
red rocks looks phenomenal, I wish every venue looked like that. Your other photos were great, as per usual. You also aquired some unusual shots this time, thank you! :xoxo: stellar photos, truly. I thought some others were the best, but these are the best, too.:woohoo:
So glad you got to "hit it" at red rocks. (go head, Tiffy. It's about time, Tiffy. :laugh: ).

[AliceLover]

Tiff, great review and pictures as always.

I noticed that the Gold Dust Woman shawl was on that holder thing. Did she actually put on a shawl herself of throw it there when she was done?

[CrystalVisions]

I'm so glad you got to go ~ and sorry you had such a horrible time at the airport and with your rental car!

Tiff, as usual, your review and photos are absolutely amazing and beautiful! :xoxo: Thank you so much for sharing it all with us. :angel:

[GardenStateGirlie]

Tiffany, your review and photographs were worth waiting for. Gorgeous as usual. Thanks so much for keeping us filled in. You are, as always, the best :xoxo:

[Glittermoondust]

Crappy photos??!!??? WHATEVER :rolleyes: You know your pix are always good!! :p I especially love the BATB one--very pretty :nod: Sounds like you gals (and guy--almost forgot about Curtis--sorry!!) had a great time--thanks for the review--enjoyed reading it!!

[EnchantedSLN]

Your other photos were great, as per usual. You also aquired some unusual shots this time, thank you! :xoxo: stellar photos, truly. I thought some others were the best, but these are the best, too.:woohoo:

Nah, they really didn't turn out that great this time (or in Vegas). Much darker & grainier than the SYW tour. I don't get it, unless it's just lighting diffs. Thank you though :)

[EnchantedSLN]

Tiff, great review and pictures as always.

I noticed that the Gold Dust Woman shawl was on that holder thing. Did she actually put on a shawl herself of throw it there when she was done?

Yeah, she just throws it on the floor when she's done. When they were taking the stage apart Jill walked across it with a big laundry basket full of Stevie's shawls. I guess they gotta go somewhere, but I dunno, I suppose I expected something more... fabulous :laugh:.

[amber]

Okay, not to interrupt, but I just want to say:

TIFF SHOULD BE THE OFFICIAL FM/STEVIE PHOTOGRAPHER!!!
mmkay, that's it.

[kgbmac]

I think you photos are great! Thank you for sharing them :)

[Dreammms]

Great pictures and review Tiff! Thanks so much for sharing.

[sodascouts]

These photos are great, Tiff, especially the pants one. Thank you so much!

[gldstwmn]

This venue is so beautiful. If you ever have a chance to see a show there, please take it. You drive up through some grassy hills dotted with sparse brush, and suddenly there are these mammoth red rocks jutting out of the ground. The road from the park entrance up to the actual amphitheatre twists and turns through all these hills with hiking trails and deer and gorgeous rock formations. We must have stopped every 5 feet to take some more pictures of the landscape. We get up to the lot a couple hours prior to the gates opening and find a primo parking space. The first thing I see when I get out of the car is the infamous "balcony" on the walkway up to the venue where Stevie waves to the fans on the Red Rocks vid. Hee. It hits me that we're really there and I immediately wish I had a pair of comically oversized sunglasses. We climb up the walkway to have a look around. They weren't kidding when they warned us it was quite a hike up to the amphitheatre.

I am so glad you liked it and got to experience it. Thank you for the beautiful photographs.

[CrystalVisions]

AMEN. We should start a petition, or something! Tiff is the best! :nod:

Thats funny!

[Livia]

Great pics, Tiff! Sorry I missed you! We were in the 13th row, which seemed so far away! LOL

[GardenStateGirlie]

Maybe it's the enchanted laundry basket? :shrug:

[Hawkeye]

I LOVE these Photos. She looks almost drunk happy on The Rock and Roll Pic :laugh:

[golden braid]

Hey Tiff, thanks for the review and pictures. I have been totally waiting to read how your Red Rocks experience went. That's too bad you missing seeing the HAEWAFY fountain but at least you made it to the show. The venue looks so beautiful. I'm a little jealous I didn't go. Glad you had fun. :wavey:

[jkmaletic]

hey Tiff-

Great photos again! I have a question though: Do you think they had Stevie come down to greet the crowd during Edge because that particular stage set up (like maybe the stage was too high)? Or do you see this happening at future shows - like this is how they are gonna do it from now on? :shrug: (which I hope isn't the case, but it would pretty much eliminate stage rushing if the only people that got hand shakes were front-rowers with designated bracelets on :shocked: )

~Jamie

[EnchantedSLN]

Thanks guys! :xoxo:

The Enchanted Laundry Basket. Love it!

Livia, sorry we missed you too. Are you in for any others, or done for this tour?

[Mokona]

Thanks Tiff for sharing your beautiful photos. I love the pants one too. Sorry to hear about your transportation problems also - we had a few of our own in Cleveland and Virginia. Traveling can be a pain at times!

Glad you had a good time though and it is so beautiful there!

Hey Jamie! Actually the "stage" was only about 6 inches high... she didn't really didn't have to come down off anything, just walk forward past her microphone. If you were in the front row, you were pretty much on the level with Stevie & the band all night. I think the only reason they did wristbands here was because there is really nothing to separate the rows. There aren't proper seats... you just sit on the steps of the amphitheatre. The only barricades were the railing between the front row and Stevie, and a dinky little rope that was set up between first and second row (which everybody ducked under or jumped over at the end of Landslide). I doubt she will come down like that at other shows where there is a regular stage.

[estranged4life]

Tff, Thanks for sharing.

I need to ask my brother to send me the pictures I had taken in 1984 at Red Rocks when we went on vacation.

[gldstwmn]

~Jamie

It's just the way the stage is set up at Red Rocks. Last time I saw Stevie there I was front row and she hugged me and we chatted for a moment. Then she let go of me and I burst into tears. :o

[wondergirl9847]

Anita and I were looking at Waddy's mic with all his picks still stuck on it, and the guy taking it down was kind enough to toss us a couple. They're white, with his name and "KEEP BACK 200 FEET" on them (?).


I wanted to get a pick from Waddy's stand in Dallas, but the guy took off with them in a hurry. Keep back 200 feet!! LMAO!! That's what it says on the backs of the shirts they wear on Rescue Me (the firefighters). Interesting. Perhaps he's a fan. :shrug:

Crappy pics?!?!?!?! Are you crazy, woman!!?? You haven't seen my pictures, obviously. What kind of camera do you use? It's TERRIFIC! Great review and amazing pictures!

Oh, ok, Thanks for clarifying. That's weird though that the stage was so short! I mean, how could people possible see anything that were in like the 15th row or whatever?

~Jamie

[gldstwmn]

The stage is at the bottom of the amphitheater. The seating is at a pretty steep grade.

[equeen102289]

It hits me that we're really there and I immediately wish I had a pair of comically oversized sunglasses
LOL, I would have been thinking the same thing!
Great pics Tiff! The one during BATB is one of the best shots of her singing that song (recently) I believe.

[GarboSpeaks!]

Ahhhhhhhh. Home at last. At one point I leaned over to Tiff and asked her "did you think today would ever get here?" She agreed that no, I don't think either of us did. It was amazing. Show wise, not the most stellar, but beautiful and special, yea amazing! Met some great people...again...and that venue. Coloradians are very lucky. Gorgeous! The hiking though can really take it outta yea. I was busting out the jokes left and right solely to avoid passing out. heehee.

Tiff does rule pic wise. As quicky as she took them, I can't believe the ones she got. I made hardcore effort to concentrate, and capture, and mine are blurry and dark. Hmmpfht! :distress:

My set list is Carlos' I am 99% sure, and of interest (well ok, to me) is that it says up top "revised 6/28/05." Weird.

Love Curtis!!!!! Tiff, always the Stevie fanatic of my dreams. COME ON SoCal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

[jkmaletic]

The stage is at the bottom of the amphitheater. The seating is at a pretty steep grade.

Now it makes sense - I don't know why I was having such a hard time before! Duh! :lol:

That would be a cool place to see a show, although Kim (my girlfriend) said she would worry about there being snakes. :shocked: Did you see any? Besides Curtis, I mean. ;) :lol:

~Jamie

[ShangriLaTroubl]

Awesome pics...she looks so good...Im so excited to see her at Anaheim this Sunday..and actually I'm kinda excited to see Vanessa Carlton too..since I'm new to Calif, I will have to leave pretty early to make sure I can get there ok lol

Chris

[GardenStateGirlie]

Just out of curiosity, did anything sound different (perhaps they've changed certain songs to accomedate her voice right now?)

Glad you all had a blast :xoxo:

[EnchantedSLN]

I am so glad you liked it and got to experience it. Thank you for the beautiful photographs.

I loved it. I forgot to note as Livia pointed out in her review, the sky was clear and the full moon was just so prominent and almost seemed like it changed colors throughout the night. The whole setting was really surreal and just made the show that much more spectacular.

I wondered if you were going, but didn't see you post in the RR thread. Were you there?

No. I had to take care of business. :( I wish I would have known you were stuck sleeping at the airport because I would have come and got you. :sorry:
I did get to see the moon last night though.

[EnchantedSLN]

No. I had to take care of business. :(

Aw, I'm sorry you couldn't be there. Would've loved to see you again.

I wish I would have known you were stuck sleeping at the airport because I would have come and got you. :sorry:

:xoxo: you're so sweet. It's ok, it was more than worth it!

[all the same]

Holy crap, Tiff! The awesomeness level of you is extremely high! Great photos. Great review! I wish I could have been there with my mini-Stevie in my pocket! :blob2:

[Dark Angel]

Great review, Tiff, and as always, gorgeous photos. :)

[WelshWitchPMD]

Tiff, glad that you made it home safely! Your pics are not crappy at all! You are right. I do think that the lighting is making it very hard to get great shots but you did a fantastic job anyway!
I love that second pic!

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Great review and pictrues Tiff! And lovely to hear about your Stevie moment!

Pip

[GODDESS6]

great pix & gr8 review, glad you guys had so much fun!!!~

[lagringader&r]

Your pics are not crappy. They are awesome. So is your review. Thanks!

[eclipse]

Thanks Tiff, for always coming through with great pictures and commentary. So glad you all had a great time
Stevie is going to begin to recognize your faces :]

Red Rocks looks/and sounds like a beautiful place-

Thanks agin, and agin,
~~eclipse~~

[littlecricket2]

Thanks so much for the review and pics, Tiff! Glad you had a lot of fun and had a sweet Stevie moment, :angel: .

[jkmaletic]

BTW Curtis (in case you're reading this thread) - just kidding about the snake comment I made earlier. :D You see, I was REALLY hyper last night after 3 iced teas and a diet dr. pepper AND the anticipation of two upcoming shows that I've been waiting and waiting for! :sorry: I need to calm the heck down and stop talking gibberish.. :]

Anyway, glad you guys had fun at that awesome venue. I hope I see you Tiff, at SD and/or Anaheim this weekend!! :blob2:

~Jamie

[ELIUD]

My god these pictures are BEAUTIFUL and I think they're way better than the SYW pictures - it's the angle, love the full body shots. Pluse Stevie is freakin gorgeous in all of these. Thanks as usual for such a great job.

[SuzeQuze]

I'm so glad you got to go ~ and sorry you had such a horrible time at the airport and with your rental car!

Tiff, as usual, your review and photos are absolutely amazing and beautiful! :xoxo: Thank you so much for sharing it all with us. :angel:

I concur. Not "crappy" at all. I really wish I went to this. But my wallet is happy anyway. I am glad you all had a great time. I want to meet Curtis too! I love your pics so much, Tiff.

On edit: Plus your Stevie moment is one of the coolest ever.

I can't believe there was a full moon and all, dammit. Deborah and I should have been there too for a little roomie reunion +1. Dammit. :lol:

[gldstwmn]

Now it makes sense - I don't know why I was having such a hard time before! Duh! :lol:

I used to hike at Red Rocks quite frequently about 15 years ago. I would run the stairs (I was in my 20's then) then walk back down. Lots of times I would be listening to my Walkman and the groundskeepers would be up there the morning after the show. One morning as I was doing my "fast walk" up the ramp I damn near tripped over this 4 foot long (beautifully colored) snake. Needless to say my "fast walk" soon turned into the high jump. :laugh:
There are rattlers in the area and all kinds of wildlife but not so much now as they built C 470 and the area is more developed than it used to be.

[gldstwmn]

Aw, I'm sorry you couldn't be there. Would've loved to see you again.
Next time.



:xoxo: you're so sweet. It's ok, it was more than worth it!

At least we have a pretty airport. :laugh:

[catinthedark]

I coulda sworn I answered this thread...

But I LOVE the pics - and the review!! Thanks so much... That place is so gorgeous. What a perfect venue to see Stevie... Maybe some day...

[Janet]

Seriously, you have the best photos, I know I am late but I had to tell you that. You always just come thru the most, really.

[BarbJRose@aol.c]

Lovely photos, Tiffany! Glad you and Anita had a super time. I cannot wait until I move to AZ in the coming years, I will have to check out Red Rocks, sounds like a fun venue, and looks SO pretty.~Barbara

[Livia]

At least we have a pretty airport. :laugh:

Your airport looks like the top of a lemon meringue pie! But, yeah, it's cool. We had a great meal at that sit-down restaurant, Chef Jimmy's, in Terminal A. They had an entree called macaroni and cheesecake, which was a wedge of mac and cheese casserole w/ those curly onions on top. It was delicious, as was my sandwich and the spinach/artichoke dip. They have great lemonade too!

[Livia]

Thanks guys! :xoxo:

The Enchanted Laundry Basket. Love it!

Livia, sorry we missed you too. Are you in for any others, or done for this tour?

I think I'm done for now, dammit! LOL I'd love to do Phoenix and Vegas, but they are too soon after this last trip and I've been neglecting some home repairs for way too long....I thought Red Rocks would be a nice finale! :D

[ontheEdgeof17]

Great review. Lovely pics!

Thanks for a great (and tiring) day! :wavey:

[trackaghost]

Tiff, your pics are, as ever, awesome!
Thanks for them and for the review!

[Rumour0323]

Your pictures are always my favorite. Thank you for sharing.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Great review. Lovely pics!

Thanks for a great (and tiring) day! :wavey:


btw...How did the other pictures turn out? The ones of the museum and group shots?

[Haunted Song]

Tiff - the photos are wonderful! That "Rock and Roll" one is adorable! You take the best photos! :nod: Thanks!

[EveryHour]

Good pics...but Stevie should have busted out the "Aztec landing pad" for this show! It's just not the same without it! (You know she has it in storage somewhere..... ;) )

[SweetGirl24]

Ahhhhhhhh. Home at last. At one point I leaned over to Tiff and asked her "did you think today would ever get here?" She agreed that no, I don't think either of us did. It was amazing.

First of all....Tiff....GREAT pics!!! And, I got Stevie's setlist from Charlotte...and it says "Revised 6/28/05" as well. I think thats when they took I Need to Know off the setlist for good, but I could be wrong

[Serrart]

I loved your review and photos (as always wonderful :) ) thanks so much Tiff!

Romy

[bellaillume]

Tiff ~

Amazing photos...from one photographer to another I saw nothing wrong with them (not one little thing) Thank you for sharing your experiences with those of us who are unable to attend this time around...You're the best!

Oh, I forgot them! The pic of the Stevie poster in the the visitor center turned out good:

Tiffany, love the moon pendant. Did you have that made? I really need to get one soon.

[GypsySorcerer]

Thank you, Tiff, for the review and pictures. As always, your pics are wonderful. Looks like the three of you had a ball. :woohoo:

[EnchantedSLN]

Tiffany, love the moon pendant. Did you have that made? I really need to get one soon.

Thanks Pattie. Actually it was given to me by Pip (thank you so much :wavey: ). I love the shape... I think it's the best crescent I've seen.

[WelshWitchPMD]

Thanks Pattie. Actually it was given to me by Pip (thank you so much :wavey: ). I love the shape... I think it's the best crescent I've seen.

It looks great. I think that they do make nice gifts, too. I guess that I will have to ask Pip where she got it. It did just order one from Camiasdesigns. com because I felt left out of the moon pendant loop. I can't wait to get it.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Thanks Pattie. Actually it was given to me by Pip (thank you so much :wavey: ). I love the shape... I think it's the best crescent I've seen.
You're most welcome Tiff! :xoxo:

Thanks Pip. Do you know if he has a website link? I would like to see more of his work.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Thanks Pip. Do you know if he has a website link? I would like to see more of his work.
He just does it as a hobby. He initially made one for 'Stevie' in the band and then we were all asking him for one! He makes everything. He even made his John McVie Bass guitar!

Pip

[SpyNote]

Nah, they really didn't turn out that great this time (or in Vegas). Much darker & grainier than the SYW tour.

Nothing that can't be fixed in Photoshop :thumbsup:

[JeannieKartis]

Tiff,
Since I decided not to go, I'm glad YOU got my ticket :)
The photos are awesome and great review.

Jeannie

[LeighB04]

..... She sort of acknowledged this later when she introduced Carlos by saying that he helped her through the times she couldn't stand or walk onstage, which those of us in Red Rocks should especially remember. She did the head holding thing at the end of GDW and kept repeating "you can't save me now, oh no you can't save me now... you can't do it... you just can't do it." ...

Sounds like Stevie was "chanelling" her last time at Red Rocks on this performance - reliving the moment of her life.... powerful stuff...
