He has lured Denver adults-at-large into the tent with special family concerts: the whole family goes in "under, one umbrella" for $1.20. Last season the umbrella worked so well that extra seats had to be installed. For the mink-and-Cadillac set, Caston made the opening concert of the season and the annual fund-raising ball two of the big social events of the Denver season...
