Greetings :-)

Right on :-) The older heads (my parents age... 60's or so) are the ones who I've been attending shows with since I was just a little gal and have grown to recognize as my comfort crowd, so I am glad to hear that there's still a presence of that age group who may be attendance.

Thanks for your insight!

Hello there! So excited to hear this year is your first Lockn', what a fantastic year you've chosen to join in on the fun! Hope your voyage to the farm goes smoothly and that you are as hyped for this weekend as I am!

1. I'm with you when it comes to the 20 something walking shit shows- its not my cup of tea. I am a 20 something and i love to over indulge, but cmon man keep it together. This is my 3rd Lockn, and I've yet to experience anyone being unfriendly or belligerent- everyone i've crossed paths with on the farm has just been lovely.

2. I am peanut butter and jealous that you're forest camping, i'm tent only camping again- but one of these days i'll have to check out the forest.

3. When it comes to packing, you don't want to be unprepared, but you don't want to look like you're prepping for the end of days. One thing i will be bringing this year that i've missed previously is a thin long sleeve t shirt to throw in my day bag- i catch the chills easy at night especially once i've stopped dancing- so it was definitely one of the first things ive packed so far.

I will say this! If you are bringing a guy with you, you could be a really awesome life saver and pack goldbond powder. He will forget it, or if he hasn't been to a multi day festival, he won't even know how much he requires it, and he will be very sorry. 

These next 3 items, are as much of a game changer for me as gold bond is for my husband:

- Backpack chairs. ones that can recline are even better- "$40 for a chair??" you may ask... I've had mine for 2 years, and it goes everywhere with me- my kids soccer games, family gatherings, beach trips, rivers, festivals- i think its a good investment. - chair

- A portable camping fan. I hang it in my tent to keep it cool (and it REALLY works) and on super hot days like all of Lockn 2016, you just carry it with you everywhere (fan) Not sure if we'll need it till Sunday this year. 

- Clip on Umbrealla- These bad boys are my jam. $6 at Dicks, and being in the shade during the day time sets makes a huge difference in conserving my energy levels for the evening. Clips right on to your chair. chair umbrella


Wishing you a magical Lockn' my friend!!!!

Friday, 11:30 am - 1:00pm, ADA RV, look for a horde. Although I expect your "cousins" will still be asleep.

I will do! Can't blame them for the sleeping though
