It is the same weekend as the other new "blue highway fest" that I was planning on going to, in big stone gap. Some crossover but much more my style lineup for a little more travel and money at the caverns. Plus I have wanted to go there for years to see a show.

I think I'm in. Who's with me?

Hope we get to cross paths finally. Should be a great time. I really enjoy festivals in early October.

One would hope...

I did look at some pictures - not very good - and did not see baffles or any sound absorbing materials in use, but possibly just did not see them.

Its kinda near where bonnaroo is located so I would think flying into Nashville and renting a car would be my route, if I were you. Camping looks to be just 8th and 9th but they may allow early entry, time will tell I guess.

If you need any camping gear or shrubbery I should be able to help, cbd of course.

Thank you. I was looking at the seating and I’ll bet if I want to dance I’ll have to go back to GA but I might get VIP just to have a seat when I want it. As this unfolds we’ll make a plan to get together

Looks like the big shows are above ground and others are in the cavern. Reviews say the sound is good or great in both locations. Not much on camping that I could find but I’m sure it will come to light soon (deliberately no asterisks) hopefully they won’t be needed 😁

According to the picture you get a nice huge field all to yourself for camping. (picture from the cavefest web site showing camping)

It does seem like a cool place to see a show. DSO is coming up in May, but its probably too far a drive for me to really consider.
