Actually, the nicer the weather becomes the higher the drinking will occur and the memory loss that follows.

Still, IF it really is that nice, I hope the fest will literally profit from it. I can promise the day trippers will increase.

And then it becomes too crowded which sucks.

I like crowds but not crowded. But we need "asses in the seats". Seriously. Or Fogarty closing with "bad moon" could be a little too prescient.

I kind of (not really) feel sorrow for the folks who aren't coming because it was so hot last year.

The faithful are being rewarded. Every time I look at the forecast it gets better. Make sure to bring those long sleeve shirts and hoodies. Did somebody say something about moving dates to Sept. when it would be cooler?

If it's slightly unseasonably cool--as predicted--it can have very positive effects on the reputation of Lockn for the future, and correct the bad impression from the combo last year of heat + move two weeks earlier.

I really do hope you all have a lovely time and perfect weather. Dave Frey has made it clear that he hates those of us who work in academia and refuses to change the dates, so I will be boycotting his little August festival until the end of time.

The weatherunderground forecast changed this morning to now have 50% chance of rain Saturday night. The description says "light showers" possible. Hopefully it either stays away or doesn't start till the wee hours of the morning.
