so, this was just posted on their facebook:

Want a guitar signed by LOCKN' Festival artists, or VIP tix to next year? We're giving it all away on Participation Row. Stop by the Qello Lounge and the non-profits to enter a FREE drawing!

i dont want to get ahead of myself, but, uh, is this a guarantee that there will be a Lockn 2.0? Have they sold enough tickets to cover their expenses and turn a little profit? Are they already throwing around ideas for next year's show? Here's hoping.

They expect to lose cash the first year. break even on #2 and profit on 3+. I think the lineup is to get the excitement hype for future up. There is enough room at oak ridge for 130,000 people if planned correctly.

The wheel is turning and you can't slow down,
You can't let go and you can't hold on,
You can't go back and you can't stand still,
If the thunder don't get you then the lightning will.

So there should be at least a Lockn '14 and '15.
