Update: Click here and here for live blog coverage of the entire event.
Well, it's finally here, the inaugural edition of the much ballyhooed Mile High Music Festival. On Saturday and Sunday, we'll be holed up at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in the lovely environs of South Commerce City covering both days of the fest. Expect to see some live blogging, as well as the periodic posting of photos from the event throughout the weekend. And then on Monday, we'll wrap things up with reviews and even more photos. In the meantime, to help you get your wits about you, after the jump, we've posted the schedule for both days, two maps of the event (one of the grounds and one of the surrounding area), as well as a breakdown of the things you can and cannot bring into the festival.
