Rockin' the Rockies concert promoters are struggling to pay the remainder of their bills, and although the majority of bills have been paid, at least one financial dispute remains unsettled as concert promoters continue to sort through bills and the remainder of their credit card income. Eric Rasmusson, Rockin' the Rockies spokesperson, investor, and legal counsel, said all Rockin' employees had been paid, the concert site landowners have been paid, as have fire service providers, emergency service, and ambulance providers. Most local concert vendors have been paid, and Rasmusson said two Whitehall vendors who haven't been paid yet - Harlow's Bus Service and the Super 8 Motel - are top priorities for payment, as are other local vendors, as soon as income for the concert is released from a credit card company.
