The String Cheese Incident

"Hands down the best Bend Down Low, Big Shoes and Mountain Girls all in the same show...simply amazing"

"This show was so crazy. All i can say is that the green light was awesome. Really enjoyed the blue girls and jellyfish dancers, why no jellyfish after rivertrance, i was really disapointed by that. Still a f**king awesome show, great opener. Thanks again boys."

"JESUS!! 2nd SET > Bout 110 minutes.... my god..... wish i was there.... got all zoe and NYC though... should have went to colorado.... what an idiot i am??? > Punches self in the face!"

"So let me start off by saying how i got to the show. I origanaly just had a ticket for Friday and Sunday, but me and my brother decided to go on hopes and dreams to hopefully get tickets from someone. Thankfully we found two tickets and we paid $100 each. BEST DICISION WE`VE EVER MADE! The entire show was sick but i would have paid another $100 just to see the 2nd set again. Rivertrance, Dirk, Big Shoes all sandwiched between Desert Dawn one word SICK!!!!! Im still in shock that i was able to go to the last 3 incidents (hopefully not) all the way from Chicago!!!!"

"This show was UNBELIEVABLE, hands down the best I`ve seen in a long time! The show renewed my love for the band. Although they`re spliting, I have high hopes that a reunion tour will happen in the near future. Thank you SCI for all the great memories - I`ll miss ya!"

"THE CHEESE REIGNS SUPERIOR"

"absolutely mind-blowing. . . what happened on the rocks that night isn`t justified by words. Cheese threw down for an intense two sets of straight madness. best show ever. . ."

"Thanks Cheese... I`ll never forget this night. I had never been front row for an incident before, so this was freakin spectacular for me!! Totally blew me away. Best Cheese show I ever saw. Best Concert I ever saw for that matter.. From the Indian ceremony in the beginning and Little Hands, (anyone else catch that blue sky tease in Sometimes a River? fav. abb song) all the way through to Big Shoes and the sweet encores... I would have to say that there was one point were Kang literally jedi power knocked me back. haha it was like !bam! Anyways, there`s nothing like what cheese did for me and my friends. Period. I will always remember my quest out to the Rocks of Red and the sheer joy and adventure it held and all the other memories along the way. Thanks CHEESE> More than Words fella`s :) p.s: dvd would be super-ultra sweet, only if it captures what this night really was... oh and also, Cheers to you and all the Mississippi folks who held it down out there! Good Night. Good Day, and Jah Bless..."

"Top three shows...up there with both vegoose late nights... Was front row...center stage...no one in front of me except for an occasional photographer... Please release a DVD of this one...just too important not to spread around... only wish everyone could have seen my point of view. Tremendous. Thanks SCI."

"DVD: Please, please, please produce a DVD of this show and its amazing visuals and crowd/band pleasure! I want to re-live this one for many years and share the visual/musical experience with those who were not lucky enough to be there."

"SCI dropped a musically fueled psychedelic love bomb on the crowd. Possibly the best Cheese show I`ve ever seen. Unquestionably in the top 3. Oh yeah it was good too."

"This was one of my favorite shows the whole tour! Completely packed with energy. First set was jammin and the second...well what to say about the second...BLASTOFF!!!!"

"This show was kick ass."

"best show ever, man!"

"what`s goin` on here..where`s the the shout out to Billy!..he`s the heart and soul of this band..the reason why these shows have come down to what they are..his early original songs and sweet acoustic guitar is what solidified the distinctive String Cheese sound..it was all a beautiful puzzle from then on..i knew from the moment i first saw them at the `Golden Burro Cafe` in Leadville..early `94..that i had come upon something special..what i would`nt do to go back to that first show at my favorite bar..damn.."

"Second set was like a rocket straight to space. Totally psychedelic. Visually and musically. The crowd going nuts during the second half of Rivertrance was the appearance of the "Big Freaking Laser Beams." Wow! Throughout the set folks were exploding in musical orgasm. I really can`t say enough about how remarkable this night was. It was a total cornucopia of visual and musical treats. Acrobats, dancing jellyfish, Mardis Gras women on stilts, giant butterflies, bubbles, laser beams w/copious smoke, fan dancers and fire hula hoops. That`s off the top of my head. Total enjoyment. Total meltdown. Totally amazing."

"This was one of the best nights of my life. Perfect setlist. Brilliantly played. Peak Productions was in full effect. Show highlights include Little Hands opener, Close Your Eyes > Bam! > Close Your Eyes, Betray the Dark (great new song). The second set could possibly be the best Cheese set ever (definitely the best I`ve ever witnessed), but if I had to pick highlights from this set, it would go something like this: Desert Dawn > Rivertrance (This segue is phenomenal. The Desert Dawn jam is amazing, and this show is really all about the Rivertrance. Peak Productions brought trapeze artists, fire poi dancers, etc. In other words, the show was not only going on on stage. IT was happening next to the stage, out in the crowd, on the rocks, EVERYWHERE!.). Bend Down Low brought us all back down to Earth, and was its usual groovy reggae self. Dirk > Drums was a great jam, and kept this party movin. It Is What It Is is always a treat. I felt like Kang was singing about all the freeks dancin on the rocks! Hotel Window brought us back to reality again with Nershi`s poignant lyrics. This Must Be The Place. Need I say more? Big Shoes. Other worldly jam, lights on the rocks, lasers. Are you f`n kidding me?!?! ...and we`re back to Desert Dawn. Great transition. Great way to end the set. For the encore, we went over The Bridge to see How Mountain Girls Can Love. I have nothing bad to say about this set. I don`t think it would be going too far to say that this is one the greatest concerts of all time. 10/10. Listen to this show!!! Thank you Cheese. We love you!!!! "

"I only made it to this night and what a night it was. The light shows, Dancers, and trapieze artist. Just so amazing what a band from Colorado can do with the beautiful music and a beautiful venue thank you so much for that weekend. I will never forget it can`t wait to see you again. Cause you know they can`t stay broken up for ever there are way to many cheese heads to let that happen am I right."

"Second Set, What!"

"This was my last show, had to catch a plane early Sunday morning, but what a show it was. Just a dribble of rain was falling as they went into Know You Rider which made the moment even more enjoyable. The jams were incredible, the scene was electric and the place...well Red Rocks was placed there by a higher power. Thanks for all the memories, to the band and the fans and (crossing my fingers) I hope to see us all together again somewhere down the road"

"Thank you. Thank you. The weekend was incredible!!!"

"To String Cheese, its crew and staff, thank you for the great memories and experiences you have bestowed upon us throughout your existence. Your art has touched my soul and I know the same for countless others as well. Your efforts and energy will not go forgotten. I hope the best for each one of you in your journeys in the future. This was my last show and I got to share it with my sister as her first concert ever. She really liked you guys. Thanks again, Namaste."

"BEST SHOW EVER!!! If there was one show to be at, or listen to THIS is it. Most amazing concert ever performed by any group!!"

"Sharks with laser beams attached to their heads ...................this show was downright amazing .........thanks cheese for the memories"

"I can`t even tell you how lucky i feel to have been able to witness this amazing night of music. Cheese was out in full force and i want to thank the band for one of the best nights of my life!"

"Oh my God! There are no words to describe just how superb this show was. This was an Incident of the most outrageous proportions. Thanks for making my trip from Indiana to Red Rocks the most unbelievable weekend of my life. Going to miss SCI something awefull"

"The second set of this show was incindiary! En fuego! I`ve been on the Rocks many many times. This was easily the best show I`ve ever seen. Magical.Thank you SCI for the fabulous ride. Hope to see you furthur on down the road... "

"Show was escellent. Didn`t sit donw or change my attention to anything besides that wonderful sounds of string cheese. Thanks a lot guys and keller too"

"Show was smoking; great energy and the lasers were awesome. A beautiful night on the Rocks groovin with the Cheese. "
