Thanks for all the great photos and info you all have been gathering for those who weren't able to make it. Truly a huge thank you. I have camped in ada the last 2 years but For those who did camp at ada at lockn 2 where you able to hear the BRB music at your campsite? Do you think you will be able to hear Main stage from the ada? Thanks again for all the great info.

We were at BRB stage during most of the shows there but the sound was faint coming from BRB to our campsite otherwise. As for the main stage, it's hard to say. The main stage is usually a LOT louder than BRB so it's possible you could hear it at ADA. Sorry I can't be more help.Thanks for all the great photos and info you all have been gathering for those who weren't able to make it. Truly a huge thank you.

You should be able to hear BRB quite well from the ADA campsites. Not sure about the Main stage, as it is down a hill and don't know too much about the acoustics. I would think so.

That's my understanding.Just curious...I may be completely wrong but it does look like he's putting the vendors out in the flats.

Dave told our hayride group that they're working on having 30x30 sail cloths put up for some additional shade. He did not specify a particular number. The really big trees they are hoping to eventually move will not be done until Fall at the earliest. Summer is not the time of year to be transplanting.Dave said they will have larger square shade structures instead of the triangular ones they had last time. Should provide more shade. He also said they were looking to moving some trees. Like really big trees. 
I caught about 2 minutes of video of Dave, including the layout of the 2 areas from the top of the hill. Sneake caught a LOT more, so that will be better. Consider this a preview.

Did Dave ask about us? Well did he? Of course he didn't, why would he...

A few photos I took along the way...Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom and work your way up. Little did I know the last one loaded would be the first one viewed and I haven't figured out yet how to flip the album...still learning.

Thanks buddy74
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?

If anybody that went this weekend is GA RV, what are the thoughts on terrain? Is it relatively flat up in high field? Based on Buddys photos, it doesn't look too bad along the gravel road but appears to fall off not far beyond that.

I have RV camped up there twice, once for Festy and once for Bruce Hornsby. Lots of relatively flat sites at the top. Fairly steep slope down he sides. You better have plenty of cribbing to level your rig just in case.If anybody that went this weekend is GA RV, what are the thoughts on terrain? Is it relatively flat up in high field?

Obviously everything is subject to change this year but how did they load you in each time? Were you leveling front to back or side to side?
