VIP tix just bought... I suggest u get yours soon, since there\'s only 100. I\'m still debating getting a cabin or a big-ass campsite for the whole crew... or, perhaps, renting that "party bus" from ebay? :lol:

they do welcome rv\'s, so bring the party bus!!!And for reserving campsites, you can\'t do that you just have to get there early and pop a tent or hold fort. But you can reserve cabins, which the floating log cabin is booked, and one other, I think there is one more which is a little ways from the festival grounds. But there is only 30 VIP passes left...so get them soon!!!!
Also the thursday is a soundcheck night w/ the spam allstars and umelt with others..You can only get into soundcheck is if you have a 3 day ticket or VIP pass, so get them soon as they will run out soon. Also reminder there is only 800 tix available. This is a upclose and personal music gathering, they did this to make it very friendly and upclose like its family. You can\'t get anything better for a music gathering...see you there!!!!

can\'t wait! we actually got some campsites for folks who didn\'t care about the music, but most of us will be in the music area (at least until we finally crash at the floating cabin). and after meeting with/talking to the folks who own the campsite, i think this is gonna be a truly awesome time!!

Your right...the land alone is so beautiful that you will forget that your still in virginia. And then to top it all off they add music, what 16 bands one main stage where you dont have to worry about seeing what band at what stage. But anyways this land will suck you in and when its time to leave you will be sad and want to stay...the lakes..showers, hiking, climbing, paddle boats, canoos, volleyball courts, campfires, spring filled lakes with diving pads in the middle of the lakes, Im telling you B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L !!!!!! Enough said..

I\'m definitely in - I can finally meet you guys when the Breakfast goes on. Or we can create our own Breakfast tent city.

Anyway it\'s going to be sick. And if you haven\'t heard Barefoot Manner you won\'t be disappointed - they are my 2nd fav. band behind the Breakfast and they are the fastest, tightest, most high energy bluegrass band I\'ve seen. Also Cosmic Charley is the best Dead cover band around, better that DSO in my opinion. If you can handle Dead cover you\'re gonna get plenty of it.

threadjack~ wasn\'t hal in CC for a bit? if so, then you\'re right, they\'re a great dead band!

i\'ve seen the big old Mannerland banner (at smilefest, maybe) that the barefoot folks have, maybe we could rig up a "Buffet Table" sign for the breakfast folks....

yeah Hal Month is now the keyboardist for cosmic charley. Also Ancient Harmony and Cosmic Charley are doing alternating sets at Charleston SC this weekend I believe both Friday and Sat. That will be the best non Breakfast show I can think of. Ancient Harmony may be getting ready for a full blown tour! Also in Cosmic Charley is bassist Dave Demizio, from the famous Athens GA band Fuzzy Sprouts (get the CD Liquid Light). I\'m telling you CC is better than DSO - all jamband veterans doing super high energy Dead Cover. Anyway this festival is going to be insane - if the Northeast crew hasn\'t heard of the other bands at this festival - trust me - they are all sick.

Yes, Robyn bought us the VIP passes. We\'ll be there early!!! I\'ll probably photograph most of the bands, but of course PB!!!

And Jason...no rush on the cds! I almost forgot about them.

can\'t wait only 2 months away. I know the nugroove fest is the same weekend but Im telling you the land this Camp Barefoot is located on is so nice, you will not be disappointed. I just went there for the first time last weekend to help with the production crew do some stuff and I was so amazed with the land and set up it is going to be so awesome. Dont forget to bring your fishing pole or even bring horse shoes. They will also have horse shoe pits set up around so possible horse shoe contest with different bands possibly, in the making actually. Anyways We also got Spam Allstars and Moonshine Still which will be coming off Bonnaroo so it will be a unbelievable weekend. Remember get your tickets...See you there...Also I heard in the talk that Barefoot Manner are coming up with a bunch of special performances which means special guest for their 600th show...
