MORE INFO: etown is working with event sponsors Chipotle Mexican Grill and AEG Live, along with the State of Colorado, Red Rocks, Silk, Eco-Cycle, the artists and YOU to present the most energy efficient and environmentally responsible event in the history of Red Rocks. There'll be lots of music (full concert sets from all of the artists) and a special address by Colorado Governor Bill Ritter, in one of the world's most spectacular natural arenas, the educational "etown square" where you can learn more about green global citizenship with information about renewable fuels, recycling and more. In addition, etown will be offsetting energy use by purchasing renewable energy credits and we will create zero-waste zones backstage and in the Vistor's Center. And, we are providing various ways for you to get involved in your own green way. So, join the 'etown green team' to do your part!
