Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
Summary of changes so far: Thursday: Pros Cons Gain Lettuce Lose Bob & Ratdog Gain 2nd set Umpherys Friday: Pros Cons Gain People's Blues of Richmond Lose Bob & Ratdog Gain Bill Kreutzmann's Locknstep Allstars Lose Furthur Thursdays close to a wash, but Friday, definitely leaning Cons side. All-in-all, this Festival's line-up is Kick Ass!!! With some of the heads' not going, the mgmt. may have felt it best to bring Umph in to retain and build they crowd back up. just a thought Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.

After having some time to reflect on this, I think I've boiled my (and many others') frustration down to this:
Bob Weir cancelled and it feels like we lost a Phil set as a result.
I get it, Furthur can't perform as Furthur without Weir. But I just assumed that since Phil was already planning on doing back-to-back sets, we would get some incarnation of Phil as a replacement.

I'd love to see a set full of covers, but (perhaps hypocritically of me) that's also one of my objections to them. A lot of their appeal seems to lie in these amazing covers that they perform. Whenever I see them, I enjoy the covers and I find the actual Umphrey's material to be boring as all hell. I've listened to album cuts and seen them in person, neither appeal to me.

and have passed on many chances to see them since.
They and Ratdog and SCI are the main reason I had planned NOT to get there Thursday, so to be selfish, the changes don't matter.
The loss of Furthur is major to me. But I'll motor through.
But speaking of covers, looks like from youtube that's widepread panic's thing and it's not bad (WSP is new
to me so I am happy to be educated if not). And the Dead and the Allman Brothers are often best with their covers,
in many people's opinions, including mine.

and he has his pants off. Creepy....
But what does he mean by "country crap"? I don't get it in the context of not missing Furthur.

There just is not going to be any comparable replacement for Furthur.
