As we roll into the better half of the work week, our Bass Network team has finally had the chance to take a breath, decompress, and gather our minds after three purely insane nights at Red Rocks. The three-day extravaganza was filled to the brim with Bass Network special ops, Ambassador interactions, and TONS of no-repeat music! Still gleaming and smiling at the thought of last weekend, we decided to recap some of our favorite memories.
Red Rocks Pen Pal Campaign
Several weeks leading up to the Red Rocks event, we launched our Red Rocks Pen Pal campaign. The goal was to link up Bass Heads from opposite sides of the country via Twitter, in hopes that a new friendship would blossom. Expecting about twenty pairs of Pen Pals, we were blown away by the positive response – matching over 150 pairs of Pen Pals! To make things a little sweeter, any Pen Pal group that sent us a photo of them meeting up at Red Rocks was entered for a chance to win a Meet & Greet with Lorin! Though the Meet & Greet was just an added cherry on top, the beautiful friendships we witnessed were truly the entire sundae!
Ambassador Community Service
The sun was high in the sky, the birds were singing, and the Ambassadors were gathered bright and early (8 am!!) to help give back to the Denver community on Saturday morning. Due to the amount of Ambassadors at special events like Red Rocks, it is seen as the perfect opportunity to give back to those around us. This year, the Ambassadors helped a local Denver non-profit, A Little Help. A Little Help’s goal is to connect members of the community of all ages through assisting one another. Our Ambassadors split into three groups, helping elderly members of the community with yard work, outdoor beautification, and lending some eager ears to gain age-old wisdom. One of the crews even showed their elderly partner Bassnectar’s track ‘The Churn of the Century’! (not sure if she could grasp what she was listening to haha!)

Overall, three nights at Red Rocks was the perfect way to close out the month of May. It was a pleasure having Bass Network in full effect – helping out those in need inside and outside the shows, connecting strangers in positive ways, and adding a little extra community love to an already beautiful showcase of community.
Keep an eye out for Bass Network and Ambassador activities at all festivals this summer in which Bassnectar will be headlining! We’ll see you this summer, Bass Heads! ;)
