Thanks, Lee. You invite us into your home. You teach us about what you play (and more importantly how you think about basslines). You show us the workings of your band and relationships with others in the craft. Now you take us on tour with you and give us an all access pass. You have a lot of grateful fans out here! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you so much Mr.Sklar for these videos. I can't begin to tell you how much I truly enjoy clips from your travels. I'm so glad that you are on the mend and back at your craft! Thank you sir for all you do, cheers! 🥂
I saw James Taylor there back in the late '70's. I'm sure you were with him, but I was just a youngster and all I cared about was James. They did Mexico for the sound check and today it's still one of my faves. Great videos. Keep 'em coming.
I spy with my little eye and it is RED. 😬 This is by far the most breathtaking scenery and venue lee has shown us. And imagine those red rocks are shaped like this cause of the wind. Really amazing. Thank you mr sklar. 🙏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
So many historic concerts have been there. Not that *I've* ever been there, but I wish I was close enough to visit it! Very cool to get a tour like this. Thanks Leland!
Thanks Lee, I always wanted to see Red Rocks up close. I have never been, but If I had one wish to go back in time, it would be to see "The Section" with Jackson Browne running on empty tour in August of 1977 @ Red Rocks.. I never got to go, but from others said it was an amazing show! Bless you and thanks for sharing your life with us. 🤟🏻
Was there last night. A treasure to see Leland and Russ Kunkel perform...two players who graced (seemingly) about every other album I owned in the 1970s. Thanks for keeping it rocking, Leland.
I took the Red Rocks tour in Spring of 2018, but there were no shows at the time while I was in Denver visiting, which was SO disappointing. Red Rock is my #1 concert venue Bucket List (along with Carnegie Hall, MSG & the Beacon Theater) and I WILL see a show at Red Rocks within the next year! Thanks for getting in all the backstage areas I missed when I toured Red Rocks. Just a jaw dropping venue! You live such a blessed life, Lee! I can only imagine all the amazing places, people and things you've seen in all your years touring with so many great and talented artists!
Thanks for the tour, Leland. I've been there once when I was on a business trip to Denver years ago. I didn't get to see what you showed us. Beautiful venue.
Last time I was there (2011) it looked like this. People were “jogging stadiums” up and down the seats. Too crazy for me! No one was playing when I was there - I just had to go see it
What an awe inspiring venue!! You are a blessed man Leland to do what you do. And what's so fresh and inspiring is that gleam you still have for playing and beautiful venues. Cheers brother✌
The same couple of commenters who used to advocate the benefits of "magic dirt" will surely complain about the wind noise. It's stunningly beautiful and a venue I have yet to visit. Thanks so much for bringing it home!
Thanks for this great tour behind the scenes, Lee! So many interesting rooms, technical stuff and insights the “normal” audience never gets to see. And the view from the stage… just unbelievable! Hope to be there some day! What a magical place. Keep rocking and stay safe! BR from Germany.
That was amazing. Thank you very much.East Coast Rocker just made my first trip that way to see Widespread Panic. This video was definitely the cherry on top. Thank you Leland..Am a big fan for a long time. Loved all your stories you told about all the musicians you've played with. Sir, you must be in stellar shape. Not even breathing hard. That's really impressive. Love ya and thanks again..Big Time.✌
Yesss Red Rocks ! I have been looking forward to this video. This venue is on my must go to place. Thank you so much Lee for giving us a tour. The walk up to sound board and veiw was amazing. You all have fun tonight. Wish I was there.
Stunning!!! Red Rocks is truly one of the most beautiful venues, vis a vis anywhere!!! Thanks for the walking tour, Leland -such a great look. Kudos and thanks to the crew for their extraordinary efforts 🙏🏽
Thank you for the post, I love seeing behind the scenes and it's great to see everyone working as such a team of pros. they all show that they love what they are doing, especially the cameraman and guide. Thanks again.
Really enjoyed you taking the time to do this tour of duty.I have been told this is the place to see a show.Thank you Leland Sklar. Wish I was there tonight.Stay safe be safe.And play your heart out.... Yahoo.
Thank you Lee for showing us what it is like behind the scenes and on the road on tour. A whole new world for the rest of us to learn about. Greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much!! In the late 50s my older brother's Boy Scout troop used to go there. The amphitheater was nothing like it is now. Thank you so much for the wonderful tour!
Hey there, Lee and everyone! What a view! I understand why they did not need to think for any more than five minutes before naming the place Red Rocks.
Hey thanks for the tour of RR there young man! I’ve not been but now have a general sense of the flow of the place. It’s quite beautiful. I remember seeing not too long ago the Warren Haynes/Grateful Dead broadcast there. The bassist on that date, Lincoln Schleifer is a guy any bassist should tune in to. One hell of a player man…!
There are certain venues every working musician wants to play. Of course, there's The Garden, and other iconic American venues, but Red Rocks is always in that list. A buddy of mine from the Marine Corps got to see Bonamassa there last month, and all he could say was "Holy Shit!". He said it's his favorite venue, ever. I love the behind the scenes stuff. Thanks, again.
Does my heart good to see all those Fender amps 😎👍 Almost expected to see the ghost of Jim Morrison making it with a groupie on the backstage tour...but he never played Red Rocks...did he?😉 Oh well. That wouldn't have stopped him 😂 😎👍❤🖖 Love Brother
Good evening. What a venue. How do they make the sound so good. Isn’t it awesome how great Mother Nature is. The person or person with foresight to put it there. Have a great show.
Thanks for the best tour of Red Rocks that I have ever had! I can see why it is your favorite place to play. Unfortunately, it is probably too late for me to catch a plane and make the concert.
Thanks, Lee. You invite us into your home. You teach us about what you play (and more importantly how you think about basslines). You show us the workings of your band and relationships with others in the craft. Now you take us on tour with you and give us an all access pass.
You have a lot of grateful fans out here! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
What a great opportunity to see all around and inside Red Rocks. Thanks for doing this Leland! Keep up the great work - love your channel!
What an amazing venue Lee!! The view is stunning!! Thanks for all these walk throughs!!
An amazing treat to take the backstage tour. For music fans this is an amazing opportunity. Thank you for doing this Leland!
That has to be one of the coolest stages on the planet. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much Mr.Sklar for these videos. I can't begin to tell you how much I truly enjoy clips from your travels. I'm so glad that you are on the mend and back at your craft! Thank you sir for all you do, cheers! 🥂
Seems like every behind the scenes tour Lee does he runs into Brad practicing on his Sax. Very dedicated professional. Great tour. Thanks again.
WOW!!!! Thanks for taking us there my brother 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I saw James Taylor there back in the late '70's. I'm sure you were with him, but I was just a youngster and all I cared about was James. They did Mexico for the sound check and today it's still one of my faves. Great videos. Keep 'em coming.
Spectacular, Thank you so much!

@@lisamalone5219 Look up Chris Tomlin "Live at Red Rocks" here on RUclips.....Amazing video!
Walking up those stairs looks like a good way to get your cardio in.
Never been there would be like a dream if I could go. Thanks Lee

Oh man - beautiful. Thank you for the behind the scenes tour. I could listen to Brad Leali play all afternoon. Such a talent.
Great video. My friend Nathan Andrews sent this to me. So cool to see. Thanks!
Ahhh the sounds of a saxophone player warming up….brings me back to my childhood!!
Beautiful land to play in.........very sacred.....thank you for showing us the landscape and where you are playing...amazing
That's fantastic view

I've never had the pleasure of visiting Red Rocks so thank you LeLand for the tour!
The best place in the world to hear a concert, which means it has to be the best place in the world to play at. Enjoy!!
👍👍🏆🏆What an amazing tour!!!! Denver meets the 4 Corners area and waaaay more! Thanks for the tour!!!!
And the magic also happens behind the camera, thank you for sharing!
I haven't been there since a half dozen Dead shows in the late '70s. A great venue and vibe.
Thank you for the tour of a magnificent venue.
The same couple of commenters who used to advocate the benefits of "magic dirt" will surely complain about the wind noise.
It's stunningly beautiful and a venue I have yet to visit. Thanks so much for bringing it home!
I forget what the magic dirt was about. Dirt where psychedelic mushrooms were grown? 😀
@@lastnamefirst4035 Something like that. I believe it was a bogus claim used as a "preventive medicine" to avoid COVID - in lieu of the vaccinations.
Absolutely stunning!, from an angle very few get to see.. Greetings from the peanut gallery.
An amazing amphitheater! Thanks for the tour.
FOH “It all starts with the source, good sound doesn’t happen without good musicians”
Evening Leland, great scenery👍
Absolutely!
Bunny, 👋🏻😊
@@splashesin8 Hey Audrey👍👍

This is what is great about Colorado. We have so many artists visiting and they are not harrassed.

There is an old chick who lives near Te Awamutu NZ called Ruby who grew up at Red Rock. We call her Red Rock Ruby.
Thank you so much for the tour; so many decades of hard work and hard-playing musicians have created the best venue in the world!

Beautiful!!
