Amir Bar-Lev’s highly anticipated Grateful Dead documentary Long Strange Trip is due out on Amazon Prime on June 2nd. However, fans looking forward to the new film may not have to wait until June 2nd to see it in full with the recent announcement of special early screening in Colorado. On May 25th, the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre will show the four-hour documentary as part of the Denver Film Society’s Film On The Rocks series. The locale is a perfect venue for the showing of the movie, which features interviews with band members and other notable figures and which contains never-released Grateful Dead studio recordings and live footage, especially considering that the band played 20 concerts at the epic venue over a ten-year period from 1978 to 1987. VIP tickets for the Red Rocks screening of Long Strange Trip are on sale now here, while tickets for general admission will go on sale this Friday, April 21, here.
