...and more to be announced.

also a huge emphasis on green and sustainability. Too bad its same weekend as high sierra. I think I'm in for Rothbury, Telluride in June and Yarmony in August. Decent summer schedule.

 

I really am liking the lineup, a lot! I've pretty much decided I need to go.

 

This is the place that will have all the goood energy and intentions....no langy for me....the raw roth is where ill be......

 

This fest has an awesome lineup. EOTO, Mike Gordon, sts9, Lotus. Primus. i could go on....

If you pay roughly 1600/person you can get "The Good Life" status which gives you a log cabin, pools and hot tubs waiting for you back at camp All in a private setting and vip access. THAT would be sick lol. This fest is gorgeous as hell, but pricey

 

this festie looks to be amazing. the domes that will have dj's spinning with projectionist til the early hours of the morning looks like it will be a must see for me. I cannot flippin wait!! Any one else applying for the green team, or waiting for the operations team to volunteer?

 

sure if you go some ways its pricey, but if you get an early bird ticket 200 ain't bad at all for quality/quantity of acts. All of Cheese but Kyle, 1/2 of phish, 1 part dead. Could be some nasty sit ins for sure.


I've got some pals trying to get on the green team/volunteer options. Some of my friends want to hit VIp campning the rest can barely scrape the cash. We need to come to group consensus.

 

this would be a good one to volunteer at. Very diverse lineup, maybe you could work your way out of missing bands you want to see (id be happy working most of the headliners, as the other bands is what i would go for. Or trash cleanup would definitely guarentee i dont miss any music). Lots of good music at this fest tho...

 

Ive always wondered what is V.I.P. CAMPING is like at festivals like this? Is it just that much more fun in there or is it a bunch of rich people livin it up like Paris Hilton?

 

I've never done VIP, but I know here you get some nice perks...nice breakfast, showers, etc. Is it worth the extra moolah...I guess if you aren't squeezed sure. I'd really like to hit up the cabins, but none of pals can afford to plop that sort of cash out which is understandable. But then again, the camping is hlaf the fun.

 

I was looking at the price of cabins and they were $1,000+
CrAzY if you ask me. I'll be sticking with the tent in GA. Never had a bad time just going that route. Maybe less sleep, but who sleeps at these things anyways?!?

 

I think they're 1300....take out the VIP ticket of 475 you're down to 825 divided by four is roughly 206....not bad for some of the luxuries you get and if that's waht you need. But how nice does it sound to spend a day raging it in the sun and then coming back and undwinding from a day of mental melting by climbing in a hot tub?. Half the fun is being in GA camping with everyone and running on no rest.

 

Man. I am very excited for this. Im definitely going. Very pumped. I absolutely adore the lineup. DMB, Primus, wsp, gogol bordello, phil lesh, 311. Oh deer lord. this will be fun.

 

I'm pretty sure prices are per person, otherwise I would totally be in for it.

 

Yes prices are per person...the divided by 4 is for the 4 nights...still think its a hell of a deal.

 

Yep I think I am gonna go to this one.The lineup is great and sounds like a good vibe.Not only that,but my b-day is the third of July,and I live in NW Indiana.About 2 hours away. Hope to see yall there.....

 

i was so going to go but i might be in italy or coming back from the air port. i was going to get two tickets and surprize my friend but i dont know what his schedule is like. that sounds soooooo fucking amazing. two of my almost favorite bands will be there. yonder mountain string band and lotus. i just got my tax refund too so i have the money... ugh i really wanna go. and i have relatives that live very close there too. 199 buck for early bird tickets...i have a few days to decide

 

Here's the jam bands:
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND

I think I will be adding this festival to my summer calender

 

Yay Trampled By Turtles have been added.

 

Definently the festival I'm going to this summer, fricken Primus? Hell yeah, and its in michigan (the best state in America). Its gonna be awesome, it would be hella cool to have a cabin and all of that but...yeah, ain't gonna happen. I'll just trip balls running around the camp ground. See ya there!
