If they were to book a Headliner for 3 nights, an opener for them, maybe a local late night band in the campground... that would be vastly more profitable for the promoters & Nelson County.
Phish could sell 25K-30K tix for a weekend with the lack of NE shows on the tour.
Dead & Co could sell 20K tix for a two day run, have the side projects like Billy & The Kids, Wolf Pack, Oteil & Friends play the 3rd night.
Widespread Panic could probably pack 15K for a 3 day run.
They could do an SCI/UM weekend with Keller opening, that probably gets 10K-12K.
A TTB/ Gov’t Mule weekend, a JRAD weekend, maybe The Avett’s, a Bluegrass set up with like GSBG, Salmon & The Dusters playing sets each day. Even a Twiddle & Pigeons pairing with like Spafford opening would probably pull close to 10K people.
Even DMB, Mumford & Sons, Kings of Leon or somebody more mainstream would do well there too. They could get Farm Aid, or just have Neil Young for 3 nights, 1 w/ Promise of The Real & 2 with Crazy Horse.
The more I see bands having “Insta Sell Outs”, the more I think this would be viable and better for the area & the bands.

If they offer individual shows throughout the fall, Its too far to drive for a one night show.

THIS 100%... they need to allow camping, local vendors, have 1 Big Name & then a local “Rockin To Lockn” type band to play the campground before or after. Maybe even Keller.
I could see 4 weekends...
1.) Widespread Panic (mainly cause that’s the rumor & it would be an instant sell out.)
2.) JRAD w/ a guest maybe. Then Ghost Light or The Duo as an opener.
3.) Billy Strings, maybe w/ Keller
4.) Twiddle & Goose (Both Bands 2 Sets Each Night)
Other things I could see there... Umphrey’s, an Oteil & Friends weekend with like Lettuce or GSBG.

I think that would be a horrible idea and would almost certainly do damage to the LOCKN brand.

No hotels nearby for the majority of attendees--the ones who don't camp
Several colleges nearby but I think especially in the fall--and this fall--you won't get them off campus.
The remote location makes it great for the festival that it is--and limits all other major uses.
