I haven't been to Red Rocks but I hear it's beautiful. Seeing them at a gorgeous outside venue was really awesome in Washington.

I hate my job, too.

I am thinking about a 3 night stand in Ireland/England.

That show at the castle looks kind of dope.

Never beent to Great Britain.

This could get interesting.

If I were you, I'd pick a place that you've always wanted to visit, with a good venue, where the fans aren't assholes, where you're likely to be able to get a ticket for face price. If you're going just for a day or two instead of as part of a larger vacation, I'd pick a city that has good public transportation so you don't have to rent a car and you can keep the costs down. It has the added bonus of letting you drink at the concert. Don't assume that you have to see them in NYC unless that's an emotional thing for you. It was an emotional thing for me in 2004 and it wasn't one of the best concerts I saw on that tour.

Other people will disagree, but I personally think you can go to too many Beasties shows. It's difficult to call before you see how varied the setlists are going to be on this tour. But you might want to see 2-3 Beasties shows and then save some of your money to see other bands. There are going to be some terrific tours this summer and fall.

Good luck in your travels!

It seems like the CA shows will attract many board members (but not me). It appears that the Brixton show is going to attract a whole lot of interesting board members too.

You'll want to check out the seating chart for Red Rocks before you pick that one. It may be difficult to get a good seat, and GA is in back of the venue. If you don't like GA, that might be a good bet if you can get a seat during the general sale.

Hi there. First time post, fan forever.

I recommend you come to Colorado so that you can witness The Beasties at RED ROCKS, THE GREATEST OUTDOOR AMPHITHEATER IN AMERICA!

It boasts the best acoustics ANYWHERE, beautiful surroundings, etc.

I've been a fan since I bought License To Ill on Vinyl when it first came out.

I've been to my share of shows.

However.................THE BEASTIE BOYS at RED ROCKS is going to be an EPIC SHOW for the record books!

You will NOT hear better sound (Double the bass, double the overall clarity).

I just bought my tickets yesterday during the presale.

I'd like to thank the fellas for booking a gig in August here.

On August 16th, 9,000 fans are going to represent with the Mile High Flavor!

August 16th cannot get here soon enough!

I have wanted to see a show at Red Rocks since I was in high school back in the late 80's.

The fact that I am going to a beasties show there is poetic and tells me that karma is alive and well in 2007. I cannnot wait to hear the sound quality.

My vote is Red Rocks!
