Lockn 2016 moments you missed

Hah! Guess i should've clarified even further

Yeah. Meant Lockn 2016 moments. Moments of all times is good also.

We took in (literally) nearly the entire festival this year...with one notable miss...Lettuce. Saturday in general, and then capped by MMJ, just totally wrecked us.  

When I went back and watched the show, it was at 1:12.00 that I missed not being there. I would have had a freak-out during that shredding build up.  




I will say that we left with ZERO overall regrets for how we managed ourselves and our time. Had an incredible time and only missed 3-4 shows (EOTO, Kurgiban type stuff) despite the heat. 

Same. I've REALLY got to plan better next year!

For me it was definitely KW+Grateful Grass. I just wasn't prepared enough for the heat, and that combined with the walk there and the fear of missing out on the ice truck made us miss it. 

I've really been giving thought to how we will get there this year. We can't do the road trip again. 

Lettuce is my main regret. I was either on the field or in camp (where we could hear and see the big screens) for most of the acts on the main stage (I was napping for the main stage opening acts Friday and Saturday after the late night JRAD shows and early DTB and Keller sets).

Circles for me as well and the half of Lettuce that I slept through:). I've resigned myself to not seeing any shows on the Woods stage just doesn't fit my schedule...

We could hear both the main stage and the BRB from our campsite, guess that was one good thing about being where we were. The BRB was loud enough that I don't really feel like I "missed" anything that was played there whether I was technically in the stage area or not.

Been off the Forum a while since experiencing L4. I came here today to add the Rockn to Lockn act I was so so sorry to miss, DJ Williams Projekt, since I live in his home town of Richmond and he was soon after L4's performance to move across country to L.A. There are mutual friends he & I have in common but I never saw him perform.

Not sure how I stumbled upon this but DJ's Facebook page shows an entry from April about how he'd gone overseas to visit "friends/ family" and was detained. A GoFUNDme page was created, it reaped loads of support and has been since closed to receiving any more donations. Further updates on FB indicate that DJ is back safe in the States, but I gleaned that from a few Friends' "replies" with still unclear understanding what went wrong or how long he was detained (or where, exactly). Maybe I read the GoFundMe and the FB profile too hastily and missed an important update but the overall circumstances surrounding his detention are hazy until I research further.

I'd not seen anything like this become the situation for anyone in my immediate life much less a performing artist so close to home. He'll be back in Richmond doing a show July 1 if anyone in the RVA area is interested. I'm looking forward to finally seeing him play, and maybe find out more just what happened to him and whether he's moving back here:

And as I have aged into considerable lack of heat tolerance, as much as I enjoyed L4 I knew I wouldn't be back for L5 this year. But I enjoy reading posts here when I can, to feel the vibe and anticipate on behalf of everyone returning there, including several friends of mine who will be 4- and 5-time Lockn attendees!

Thanks for posting. The July 1 show is on my calendar. See you there!
