Prior to setting off on “Sky High,” BIG GIGANTIC will return Saturday, September 28 to the famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado for their second annual event, the massive hometown show “ROWDYTOWN.” Voted the #1 EDM show of 2012 by the Westword, last year’s debut marked the first time a band ever used projection mapping visuals on the venue’s rocks. Round 2 will feature a bigger lighting rig, more projection mapping, support from Adventure Club, Carnage and Manic Focus and much more. Check out the “Rowdytown II” promo video featuring Big Gigantic’s remix of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’s hit “Can’t Hold Us” here:
