Jelly Roll Concert: What You Can and Can’t Bring Inside the Don Haskins Center

Rapper-turned-country singer Jelly Roll just announced his biggest tour yet and on the list of cities he’ll be stopping at is El Paso, Texas!!

*CRIES IN SPANISH*

I became a fan of Jelly Roll after I stumbled on his Hulu documentary, “Save Me.” The documentary shows a side to him that I did not expect at all!

On the outside you see this tough guy with face tattoos but within only minutes of watching the documentary you’re introduced to a big teddy bear of a man! A man who lived a rough life that included drugs, crime, deaths, arrests, and more.

The documentary is a way for Jelly Roll to show how he was able to turn his life around not only for himself but for his daughter. And the best part, he did it with the help and support of his beautiful wife, Bunnie.

I fell in love with his life story and bought his album "Whitsitt Chapel" on vinyl and his lyrics meant even more to me because I knew the story behind every song and every lyric. I was instantly obsessed with Jelly Roll as an artist!

He sings about his mistakes, his challenges, his losses, and his wins. So, when I heard the news that he would be bringing his music to El Paso you better believe I started jumping with joy!

Jelly Roll announced on social media that he would be embarking on what he says is the biggest tour of his life!

The “Beautifully Broken” tour is set to kicked off on August 27th in Salt Lake City, Utah. Jelly Roll will make his way to the Don Haskins Center this Monday, September 9th.

If you plan on heading to the show tonight make sure to know what’s allowed inside the venue and what isnt because if not, you’ll regret it!

CLEAR BAG POLICY DETAILS: 

I’m going to start with the big one. Purses or bags. I say this is a big one because it never seems to fail that I see someone getting denied access to enter the venue because they were not aware of the clear bag policy.

Clear bags are allowed in the venue and so are small purses, but they must be a certain size.

If you take a big purse that is not clear, you will not be permitted to enter the venue at all.
