Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
On the first point, not necessarily more Red Light bands; the focus will be on the mix as well as back-office matters. Last year was heavy with Red Light (Phish/Ween/MMJ and others). But anyway, they have a good list to choose from. And curious where you heard about a buy-in? Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.

I know, guilty as charged. TOO can you hide this and bring it back after L5? Deleting is fine as well, if my prediction comes true I have bragging rights if not, it's like it never happened.

Seems to be a new trend in smaller theatres, love it.

If JRAD doesn't get on the main stage next year it will be a real disappointment. One because they deserve it, and two because they need to mix up the late nights a little more. It's the best Dead music of the whole fest and it's all happening in the wee hours of the morning. If they need to bill it as "w/ Bob Weir" in order to make that happen then all the better.

Unless they book them together but I doubt we'd see that announced, rather than "surprise."
I agree it's very Phil-centric and don't know what the strategy is. Maybe it's easier to get him to commit; he seems quite focused on his present-day music career, with the family band and his place in SF(?). He certainly seems to enjoy it. When Further fell apart at L2 he seemed to step up to keep things going.

Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams

I know that several of these aren't jam bands, but they're good artists, they put on a good show, and would give Lockn' a little more diversity, not to mention some female-fronted bands.
See you in 2018!

I like a lot on this list but you have to remember this is an older crowded festival. Gotta be careful not to cross over into the EDM crowd otherwise you'll wind up with the same type of crowd as phish aka a bunch of young people 18-21 doing nothing but raging and overly doing drugs. Add Dead and Co headlining and I'll be there for sure. Heard good things about Portugal, Shakes are always good, Salmon rocks, Matthews could fit into the scene but they bring a lot of college kids, Rebulution rocks and would fit in just as well as Stoopid did few years back. Honestly the only two out of this list I'd be concerned with not fitting so much into the dead scene would be STS9 and Pretty Lights, Papa is right on the border might fit into the BRB but def not the main stage.
