Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
There was a lot of unused space at the race track, with the track itself, the pond, big area backstage, etc. Think about all the space between the food tent and the rear line, and all along the sides. Not that I mind open space but that made for long walks, too. Also since the head count has been 20-25,000 for four years, it's a pretty good trend. They can look at sales to date and know where they are. Good that they are adaptable; maybe by shaving off the race track they will get profitable. Dead Co has hurt them but if there isn't a similar event(s) next year, they could go back to bigger. this is all very interesting. Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.

Good point, sounds like a smaller capaciy. Didn't they say they could get 50000 into Oak Ridge? Not that they ever had that. [/quote]
Yes 50,000. This can hold 20,000+. Wow
What happens if I take both?

The lack of a major headliner makes much more sense now.

I suspect they had to pay a lot to keep the track undamaged/unchanged, too.
So does this knock out the fence diagram from before?

It looks like my camping might be closer to the Woods stage/Garcia's forest, which means I might make it out there this year.
I will be disappointed not to be able to bring a drink or two into early morning, late night shows.
the stage being closer will make it easier to grab a bite to eat at camp, if I so choose.

The notion that BRB has more shade is illusory.

The 5 second delay for the live sirius feed will suck though.

LOL yes a bunch of people are not going this year because they disliked last year's lineup.
