JAS Labor Experience ends with pleasant weather

Although the ground soaked many shoes through the course of the weekend, closing headliners Duran Duran and Stevie Wonder played to a bustling crowd in Snowmass.  The popular rock band, The Killers, played Saturday night, performing one of their hits, “All These Things That I’ve Done”.

Rain throughout  the weekend left the venue in Snowmass a soggy pool that left a few areas completely matted down.

Prince and David Bowie were honored by many of the performers during the weekend. The two music legends passed away this year.

 

Despite the wet conditions the shows were well attended. Online ticket sales indicated that Sunday was the only sellout.
