In a perfect world i imagine a Forum camp with all of us camping together. I realize this isn't possible but we could definately get a nice compound going on in ga.

Having said that, this works better for us. I always thought the date was a little awkward and maybe not the best for the overall festival health.
Seems to me that Bonnaroo benefits by being right after the college kids get out of class, maybe Lockn can benefit by being right before they go back to class.
Should be a lot easier for the festival to meet the temporary infrastructure needs without the nascar and football event competition.
I remember walking through the RVs last year and reading the signs complaining about the promised electricity that wasn't available, supposedly that was because of the nascar event.

And BTW the date change probably doesn't change my plans; the wedding is not a direct date conflict but more of a matter of choice of time, money and energy, all of which are thin resources! But it does open up some possibility....

We were always going to Camp Barefoot (8/17-21). Then we had a decent break until Lockn (9/7-12). When the Phish dates came out and there was zilch in the south we said what the hell let's go to Dicks (9/1-5). That was going to be crazy flying home from Denver on Mon, taking off Tues to recuperate and picking up the rv on wed to head to Lockn but we could manage it and I had to foresight to tell my overlords that I would be gone those days. (I always suspected we would be going to Dicks)
Now we are still going to Camp Barefoot (8/17-21). We get home on Sunday evening with all of our camping gear in the van (hopefully dry). I can go into work Mon & Tues before I pick up the rv Wed for Lockn (8/24-29). We get home from Lockn Mon and can go into work for Tues & Wed before flying out to Dicks on Thurs. I mean it is still doable but going to Dicks after two straight festival weekends may be too much.
So it kind of comes down to the Phishes. If they are playing Lockn for 2 nights then we will hit Lockn and blow off Dicks. (yes I said blow off Dicks) If they aren't playing Lockn... We may just do Barefoot and Dicks. I just can't see doing all three and I want to see some Phish plus I want to hang with my besties and that looks like wherever the Phishes are.
First world problems.
What happens if I take both?

Nick & Sue, I really hope it works out to where you can come and we can do the MOMA Dance together.

I better look for rain boots, which I was planning to anyway, but... I have only been to the first Lockn' whereby no rain interfered. This year's Lockn will be my first return since 2013; having missed the past two, I observed with interest the coinciding weather events of course... Told myself to find boots and to consider a camper shell for the truck bed..
The almanac-daily log I've kept for years, documents sparse-detailed jottings of past years' including storm events here in central VA. During late August on a couple of occasions I found worthwhile to note:
8/20/2014 Government Mule at Innsbrook in Richmond, outdoor venue saw the show interrupted by electrical storm activity (We drove home. Others stayed, and Mule emerged post-storm to finish the show, as I recall hearing).
8/25/2015 "Surprise showers this a.m." is what I had written. We often have fairly reliable forecasters for the local scene, so to have something crop up out-of-the-blue is not typical, not from my limited point of observation.
Many, more seasoned camping-experienced folks here won't give a cuss if rain is a part of routine outdoorsy fun times, but for me it's significant to remain mindful of weather patterns, even if there's hardly such a thing as "normal" for seasonal trends anymore. I have high hopes Lockn16's "mystery lineup" will prove every bit worth applauding through rain and mud and sunburn and windburn or anything else.
