sleeping in car wednesday night?

There are people out there with strange ideas of what fun is....

Just kidding. I suggest if you do that be away from the fest site so you will be left alone. Lots of
room 20 miles away in any direction.

The Virginia highway "waysides" are usually not very large.

I just hope that the pre-fest crowds scattered about the county in the middle of the week in the middle of the night don't set a
bad tone with the locals, both for the sake of this year and next. Hope everyone will be considerate and more important, be quiet.
This is rural country where folks prize their peace and quiet. And that includes in the small towns, too.

you're not really "ready for lockn" unless you register on the forums and join our community!

I slept in the holding area last year in front of the main gate.

We will find out soon enough where the early arrivals will gather. Regardless if there is a designated area or not the people are coming and they WILL arrive early. It's the way of the festy world and especially after the wait some people had last year I anticipate a larger number of early arrivals.
