    I've never considered going to a festival before, but this seems pretty appealing. Probably a stupid question, but will we have an idea in advance of what time Ed will go on? I'd be heading over by myself so I wouldn't want to hang out all day alone, but I would go for a few hours if I had an idea when he was playing.

    You won't be alone...just look around for me and the thousands of others with PJ or EV shirts and caps.

    It looks like it will be pretty early. Just looking at the site for the festival it lists the hours that the park is open is:

    Saturday, August 27, 2016 1:00 pm - 9:30 pm
    Sunday, August 28, 2016 1:00 pm - 9:15 pm

    Obviously EV will go on last on Saturday, so I'm assuming he plays at 8pm sharp.

    when I saw the email, I was REALLY hoping this was in Hawaii... since Ohana is a Hawaiian word...

    This event looks pretty cool. Nice line-up, great venue, and the prices aren't too bad. It doesn't feel like one of those big monstrosities of a festival. I'd be up for a VIP ticket if I was in the area.

    Ugh, really? I for one cant stand when shows let in lawn chairs blankets. Its one thing if people post up in the back of the lawn but you always get those who get up close, spread their blankey that takes up 10x more space than they actually need and then scold, shoot dirty looks at, and talk under their breath at anyone who comes within 5 feet of "their spot"

    Just purchased a pair of Saturday GA for BeerBaron - he's currently en route to FLL.

    Easier than I expected. Lucky folks are in for a real treat at the festival.

    Yes! I am really excited for Elvis as well. He is actually playing near me tomorrow night but I couldn't make it. Was kind of bummed out until this was announced.

    Looks as if Elvis will be playing solo acoustic....this is based on the fact that his website lists some shows as "Elvis Costello" and others as "Elvis Costello & The Imposters".

    How great would a collaboration with Ed be?
