Western Colorado Remembers First Concerts at Fiddler’s Green
Colorado has plenty of great music venues of all shapes and sizes. The high country has places like Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater, Dobson Arena, Belly Up Aspen, and Dillon Amphitheater, while Western Colorado has The Mesa Theater, Las Colonias Amphitheater, and The Avalon Theater, just to name a few.
Of course, the majority of the biggest music venues in the state are on the Front Range and include the famous Red Rocks Amphitheater, Ball Arena (formerly known as The Pepsi Center), and Fiddler's Green Amphitheater.
Because of this, it's not uncommon for Western Colorado residents to make the trip over the continental divide to see their favorite bands in the Denver area.
Curious, I posted a question on Facebook asking Western Colorado residents what the first show they'd seen at Fiddler's Green Amphitheater in Greenwood Village was, and this is what they said.
Western Colorado Residents Remember First Shows at Fiddler's Green
While Fiddler's Green Amphitheater doesn't seem terribly far from Grand Junction on a map, it's not an easy drive, so the number of people that live on the western slope that have visited the venue is much smaller than those who already live on the front range.
However, Western Colorado residents replied to my question with a plethora of artists they've seen at Fiddler's Green from practically all eras and genres.
