Delta Lot Address
2889 Helms Road
Meadows of Dan, VA 24120
From Stoplight in Floyd, VA
Take Highway 221 South (4 miles) to Canning Factory Road, turn Left
Canning Factory Road (.1 mile) to Black Ridge Road, turn Right
Black Ridge Road (7 miles) to Blue Ridge Parkway, go straight over the Parkway onto Rock Church Road
Rock Church Road (1.5 miles) to Willis Road, turn Left
Willis Road (.2 mile) to Belcher Mountain Road, turn Left
Belcher Mountain Road take (immediate) Right onto Helms Road
Lots will be on the Right (.6 mile) You will avoid the Parkway and it's closure.
It’s actually quicker to take 81 south from Roanoke to exit 114 Rt 8 which goes directly to downtown Floyd. It’s especially good if you are leaving cville and points west. Turn right at above stoplight in Floyd and follow above directions.
There is a food Lion and an independent grocery at the south end of Floyd, both trailer friendly, for those last minute munchies.
Between Riner and Floyd on Rt 8 there is a Mennonite bakery/deli with excellent sandwiches. Easy in and out with a trailer. The Bread Basket. Kind folks.
BTW, if you do go down 221, you will pass thru a little hamlet called Check a few miles north of the town of Floyd. Next years new permanent site of Floydfest is just east of Check.
2023: will buy Lockn tickets the second they go on sale.
May the four winds blow you safely home.

American Aquarium is very solid; their new album gets air play here on quality radio. Americana with some twang.
49 Winchester--Lobster's band--very solid and great songwriting like Drive By Truckers, but the music is not as harsh.
Sexbruise?--Like B-52's, Southern Culture on the Skids or Flight of the Conchords--fun and quirky, high energy
Yonder Mountain does a great Son of a Preacher Man (Jannus 2015)
Kitchen Dwellers--I put them with what I call the Texas Troubadors (Keen, Clark, Earle, JJ Walker) with a blues edge
Dead Reckoning--just OK Dead cover band; nothing special
More later
Lobster says "see what did I tell you?"

very poor cell service in Delta; wifi in the main grounds. Cell in main grounds?
Charging:
In addition to any RV, you can plug in at a vendors or sometimes a light pole if they have one. I had a light pole at a lockn when I camped near it.
Carry an extension cord and splitter
Take your phone and charger cord to the main venue and plug in at a friendly vendor, gate, etc.
As a volunteer you can probably drive in Mon Tues and charge while driving and plug in somewhere there; you can't talk on the phone while weed whacking!
Charging with an idling car does little to no good, wastes gas, pollutes and can kill people in nearby tents.
Since Delta is "open" go for a drive in the country! Belcher Mt Road looks cool

Brothers Comatose—just OK
Amythyst Kiah --Strong Black front woman—think Brittany Howard
Big daddy love—grass rock
Aaron Frazer—wants to be St. Paul. More like Tiny Tim
California Honeydrops—Soul/Jazz—very good
Durand Jones & indications—blue eyed old soul
Sierra Ferrell—traditional female country—think Kitty Wells
Neal Francis—70’s rock
Morgan Wade—just OK
Patrick Sweeney—swamp blues
Dogs in a Pile—Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Phish?—really good music

Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
There'll be sun
Just thinkin' about tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow
'Til there's none
When I'm stuck with a day that's grey and lonely
I just stick up my chin and grin and say, oh
The sun'll come out tomorrow
So you gotta hang on 'til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya, tomorrow
You're always a day away
When I'm stuck with a day that's grey and lonely
