The nonstop nature of the holiday hustle and bustle is finally winding down. If your season has been anything like mine, you've reached the tell tale breaking point. I'm not quite sure whether it's time to go into a week of hibernation to recover, or roll with the party momentum and push on till the day, so to say. Sticking to my tried and true mantra, "buy the ticket, take the ride" I'll put on my game face, and head over to the Belly Up Aspen to catch electronic DJ magic as A-Trak and Ecto Cooler take the stage.

SnowBall Music Festival Tickets

Marissa D'Orazio — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 19:22:42 +0000

Colorado has stolen my heart for so many reasons; the champagne powder, bluebird sunny days, rip-roaring rafting and its denizens' devotion to supporting sensational music. It's hard to pick the number one attraction, but I will say, there's something undeniably fulfilling about a soul wrenching musical performance. During the summer months, Colorado flourishes with some of the country's most impressive outdoor music venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre, State Bridge, Telluride's Town Park and so many more. Our winter snow globe landscape however, usually limits us to indoor venues, until last year's introduction of SnowBall Music Festival.
