Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
I was at Bonnaroo two years ago and had a claw hammer confiscated. It was in my car right next to the tire iron, which they ignored. Seems to me the tire iron would make a better weapon than the hammer. Anyway, thanks Sneake, I enjoyed your videos, and thanks for asking about the volunteers. Not to beat a dead horse, but I still don't see how they can have that festival without them! You may get a pass since you're going in VIP and if you show them that everything is locked up, and you agree not to open the boxes. they may want to look anyway. Generally, if you are reasonable, they will be reasonable. But this may be a case where advance communication will work better. Thanks, Sneake; I think it's a great offer and opportunity. No, they aren't going to troll through the board. I think I'd keep the dialogue to the practical and immediate, rather than gripes. Either get information, or point out to the staff what information is needed and missing. Part of the drill is that they want to retain flexibility to make some last-minute changes, such as the way they fill an area, and may intentionally keep the details hidden. We've seen the maps change, and also recall the changes from the two storms at L3. I think it's great that you found a line of communication; I found that lacking at the other fests and very frustrating, especially when relatively simple problems could have been resolved if we had someone to speak to. why do you think they are "ramping up searches this year"? All the info looks the same as before. I doubt they will make you open it. My friend with a pop-up had the same concern at L2 and also the requirement that tow vehicles remain hitched up. Neither was a problem on the ground. Wait--we were just firing up the smoker.... But you have my vote. Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.
Bring me your questions and concerns

I have brought up with them the one case of beer rule (cans of course) and tent mallets being confiscated. The sooner you post, the better chance of being addressed. Fire away!

I'll give it a shot: so it is hard to decide if I want to drive 3000 miles to lockn and leave my tools at home that I will need at every campsite I stop at on the way. Only to have to dispose of them and purchase new for the return trip. Especially without a concise list of banned items. Because, my jack could work as a hammer but it is probably more lethal as a weapon than a hatchet. Hopefully I won't need the jack or tire iron but I'm taking them just in case

Make sure that the first aid tent exists
Make sure staff knows where it is (radio communication was not helpful. nobody knew)
Make sure drivers/golf cart operators know it's ok to transport an injured person to first aid even if it's off their normal route

I believe the searchers were all employees (of a subcontractor) previously, not volunteers.

He also mentioned that they would be scrutinizing bags coming into the showfield more closely. So much so that there will be a special line for people with bags, and a much faster line for people without bags.
I wonder if they will have one of those new microwave scanners they're putting in at the airports...
