Locals invited to Rock in Rio, Day 1 -- for free
Angelica Govaert had absolutely zero interest in attending Rock in Rio.
Music festivals -- and their long lines, massive crowds and unpredictable weather -- aren't her bag. Nor was she keen on the lineup of rock acts. "I haven't liked No Doubt since college," she said with a laugh.
Yet, here she was, taking in the sights of one of three themed "Rock Streets" on Day 1 of the international festival's U.S. debut. The yoga instructor's change of heart had nothing to do with the music or the crisp breeze that made Friday afternoon in the Vegas desert unseasonably cool.
It was the free tickets.
Govaert was one of hundreds of residents at nearby high rises offered day passes to the festival, totally gratis. She was surprised by the gesture, but praised the organizers' act of goodwill.
"I would have heard [everything] anyway," Govaert said, pointing toward her building, a stone's throw away from the festival grounds. "And I have, all week, as they prepared."
