I believe for Lockn 1 there was just the Triangle stage. For 2 there was Shakedown and not BRB. That was on the Oak Ridge farm on the other side of the fence line from Blue Ridge Bowl.

This is correct. For L1 the Triangle stage was halfway back to the far camping, not where Triangle Stage (now Garcia's Forest) was for L2. L2 Triangle was where the morning shows were.

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.

What happens if I take both?

We were on RV Ridge for L1 and made it to Triangle for Indecision, Phil's Family Band, maybe some Jorma/Tuna? and maybe Peggy Young that everyone thought Neil would show up for? Glad they have contracted all of this into a more manageable layout.

I saw a facebook request for it - but what do you think the odds of them having Garcia's forest up and running Wednesday night are. Probably the only time I would actually be able to get over there and check it out.

Unlikely, but what do I know?

Honestly I hung out a bit in Garcia's when it was on Shakedown in L2. It was a great location and convenient. Never made it there during L3 (IMO, too close to BRB). Don't see myself trekking out there this year. Too far away. A good place to pop in on your way to somewhere else but not a destination in itself. Maybe, maybe if it was after late-night and you were still wide awake. Maybe.

Ya I was thinking the same thing - Late Night shows last year went until about 4:00 so I don't see myself trekking over to Garcia's Forest to wait for the sun to rise at that point.

- and yes the Garcia's tent was great on Shakedown, I guess if i'm still ready to go after phish on Sunday I could make it over to unwind before going to sleep. But i'll most likely be totally drained at that point on Sunday.

Yeah, if you were camped close, I could see going over there. Not too many people are camped close, though. I'm certainly not.

Doc,
We stayed in the High Field area last year. I think the W area you are asking about, is indeed a low area. I hear ya on the long walk. We got up at 2am from Devils Backbone brewery, gathered our things and split. We were in line by about 3:15, and we were one of the first 75 RV's to enter.

Could you tell me more about this place? please and thank you.

It is all about you. Says so somewhere on the map I think. Even if I am camped on RV Ridge right next to it I probably won't spend much time there. But I'm glad they have a cool out zone for those who need it away from the hubbub.

Actually camped right next to it is the ONLY way I figure I make it there at all. The Woods Stage as well for that matter.

OK this year's map simply marks off VIP and SVIP without designating where the RV's go--which is basically what last year's did.

So you can expect all SVIP--tents, BYORV and on-site RV to be inside or on the track, where the pond is. It's not as close to the VIP entrance but it's a short level walk--but you lose the view, sounds and breeze from the hill for the car campers. All level for RV's.

Meanwhile VIP covers the whole steeplechase. You can expect the VIP Rv's, both BYO and onsite, to be on the track where it's level and the car camping on the hill. This, in my opinion, is primo for VIP--closer, better view, breeze for campers, bigger area (they oversold it last year).

I bet the rock-star buses and glamping will still be on the top of the ridge (eastern side) of VIP.

They better have more bathrooms/showers for VIP than they show here.

Out of curiosity, where did the VIP RV parking used to be? And do you happen to know if this VIP area is all grass?
