Rain didn't stop the 311 concert
June 12, 2009
The Unity Tour with 311, Ziggy Marley and The Expendables pounded Red Rocks Amphitheatre with love and jams Friday night.
“In case you didn’t know, we’re about bringing people together,” 311 frontman Nick Hexum, yelled out into a soaked and riled-up crowd (hence the “Unity Tour”).
The rain came down, but it didn’t put out the musical fire that was lit by opener, The Expendables and fueled by second up, Ziggy Marley (one of the Bob Marley sons). By the end of the night, 311 had the fire raging.
Fans at Red Rocks were also given a little treat.
“How about a world premiere?” Hexum asked the crowd with a smile. 311 went on to play, for the first time ever live, a bonus track from their newest album Uplifter, titled “I Like the Way.”
