Words won't do justice "Family Lockn'
Post by lazyalligator2 on Aug 27, 2019 12:00:27 GMT -5
I was super nervous but Brad from Brooklyn Bowl switched us to family camping and I approached it as this would be the kids fest. I wouldn't worry about what I missed, simply view what I did see as a bonus for having chaps that enjoyed festivals.
That said, I wound up having my most awesome Lockn ever, and had at least a dozen truly magical, emotional, bonding moments with my boys over an awesome weekend.
Also I felt more a part of the community than ever, because damn near all the fest knew my 2 boys by the end of the fest and at least a thousand different folks came and played with them each day. Also they napped mid evening and hug out for most of the the Trey/Derek magic too. My love for this festival and community grew 10 fold, between all the love and plus there was no room for my social anxiety chasing them everywhere. I really thought this would flop and we'd have to leave after a day, but I was Soo wrong. Sorry to ramble, but this was truly about the coolest weekend ever and I just love our scene dude. Here's to next time

After Jerry died I agonized over missing so many shows, which I did because I didn't want to take along my young son. At that point I just regretted the ones I missed. So of course he came along to every festival and show we went to.
He enjoyed going to "our thing" when he was young, but of course really liked going to the beach, too. So one year we planned to go to Further and then to a resort at the beach, and he wanted to earn some money for the beach, so I suggested he sell water at the Manassas show. So we iced down a cooler full of bottled water and hauled it to the edge of the parking lot. He got water out and started hawking. A few people around us started complaining about us "using our little kid for money," but I assured them that I bought the water and ice, but any money he got selling was his to spend at the beach. After that, he was selling water left and right. Lots of people gave him extra for the bottle, one or two a 5 even though he was only asking for one.
One of the favorite stories he tells is making friends with some girls at Further in one town, and then seeing and hanging with them again in another town.

I found your camp Sunday night after the last show on the way to Locknewbn/sneake/lobster camp. There was no movement in smoseyville so I let you be.

After seeing you're scooter O realize we briefly met this year. I was towards the back, and my son hit you with a beach ball as you were passing through I apologized, and you said, " don't do that, don't apologise for him being a kid." I doubt you remember, it was so brief, but I've carried that advice forwards. It was just in passing but taught me an important lesson. So thank you.
