Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
None of the Thursday acts would bring me to Lockn, so I am going to take my time getting in and setting up, and will catch what I catch. Nice to have a no-pressure day because usually I don't want to miss much of anything, and then you get wrapped in in schedules like you're back at work--the thing you came to escape from! So Thursday can be my early entry, so to speak. But with the enthusiasm of my friends here, I will approach them with a positive attitude, and see you all there--shaking it! Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.

Yeah one of my buddies basically considers it the best opening day imaginable, as UM and Biscuits are his two favorite bands period. He won't be alone in that for sure.
I wouldn't go quite that far personally, but I do think Thursday & Friday are where it's at as a whole this year.
What happens if I take both?

I feel kind of the same way. After seeing them almost a dozen times this past year and throwing down for VIP for NYE and their Milwaukee run (all gifts for Nick) I finally told him after Summer Camp that I quit UM.
Meaning... he can go to all the shows he wants, I will join once in a while (like a Milwaukee Saturday show, or a Halloween/NYE show). It's not them, it's me. I'm just not that into them. I gave them a hell of a try, and I get why people love them. I just don't.

Here's their full late night set from this past Bonnaroo. Can't think of a better way to start the fest than Umphrey's>>>String Cheese>>Umphrey's>>>String Cheese>>Disco Biscuits.

2014's Umph/Cheese/Umph/Cheese sandwhich is one of my top festival experiences. I still replay that UM Puppet String/Higgins and Cheese Little Hands all the time. Can't wait to do it again!

Aqueous opened and they were great. Their set consisted of about 3 songs that were nicely jammed out a bit. Enjoyed them so much I didn't mind getting rained on.
Umphrey's played a good, solid first set that included some great Umphrey's staples as well as the lesser-played Susanah, which Bayliss introduced by saying he thought it was the first time the song was being played this year. They followed that with a cool cover of Black Water, replacing "Mississippi moon" with "Carolina moon" in a transparent though nevertheless successful attempt to enhance the crowd's adulation.
And then here's how I think part of their set break conversation went:
One guy from Umphrey's: Hey guys, I noticed snyooterdynck about 20 rows back in the crowd tonight. He's such a great guy, we should totally come up with a second set that is geared specifically towards his personal taste and make him really happy.
The rest of Umphrey's: Yeah! That's a great idea! We love snyooterdynck, let's totally do it!
One guy: Maybe open with Attachments, then do a killer Hurt Bird Bath? Then later, I don't know, maybe a Mantis > Mulche's > Mantis sandwich that clocks in over 30 minutes???
The rest: For sure!!!
