  • i like an Australian band that has now disbanded, they were a Melbourne melodic punk hardcore band (with a huge local following) called Away From Now. Occasionally they regroup for one-off shows.

    A band out of the Dallas Ft worth area called Exit 380. Great band. Can't wait for the new album to come out.

    Yeah, I gotta get to this. Question though, I thought I read a while back there is no booze there. Is that possible? That would suck.

    They say this, but it's totally not enforced. Just don't be an idiot about it. Where the bands play you can buy beer, but if you have a backpack no one's going to check it. And we always drive in multiple coolers of beer.

    If you do it, you should camp out for the weekend in the non-quiet/family area. It's a fucking blast at night. The whole scene is also. Especially the perkiomen creek swimming area; fyi - bring some kind of sandal or rubber shoe for that.

    Thats good to hear. Not sure how I feel about a festival without drinking at all. For some reason I was under the impression they didn't even sell beer. Honestly, I think that is why we didn't go last year. Definitely going to have to go next year.

    Yeah, we would definitely camp out. Sounds awesome. I will most definitely be there next summer.

    Thanks dude.

    Good to hear. I should be there with bells on. Always a shit show. And, yeah, that was the same reason I was turned off by The Fest for a while - I thought it was lame or something and they didn't let you drink, but in turn not the case at all. I think it's usually the second or third weekend in August.

    There was an early 90's band called EAT who were really good. They made just two albums and then split up. I'll see if i can find a link to some of their music later.

    Good shit, yeah, I will be there this year as long as it's not the same weekend as the Pearl Jam fest or whatever the fuck is going on.

    My family has a cabin just outside of Phoenicia. I go any chance I get. That week is my birthday so I'm having some friends up. 8-)

    After that Mountain Jam in Hunter in June. Have you been before? It is the best!

    Ah shit. Beautiful area. That will be a blast. I would extend your trip and hit up the felice brothers if I were you. Why the hell not if you are going to be out there.

    I actually have never been to Mountain Jam. Don't know why not, especially since I am a huge fan of the Allman Brothers. Gotta get there. It's the weekend after memorial day, right? Thats always a tough weekend.

    You live in San Fran? Going to be out there for work this week. Can't wait. Haven't been since I was a kid and hear it's a great city.

    You have GOT to hit Mountain Jam. Its only like $150 for 3 days, and you can get single day tickets too. It is so laid back, the musicians are just walking around and enjoying the music like everyone else. I met so many cool people last year. Richard Thompson, Michael Franti, Jacki Greene. Trombone Shorty hit on me in front of my father. It was great! Not to mention all of the incredible music. It really was a tremendous experience. I would actually call it intimate, which is weird since its a festival, but it truly was.

    SF is a great city! Will you have time to explore at all? PM me if you want some recommendations. There are some great shows coming up in the next few weeks too. 8-)

    Yeah, I definitely have to do that. Sounds like a blast and I have heard nothing but great things. Maybe this year is the year. Sounds incredible. Pretty awesome about how everyone is just hanging out.

    Yeah, I may have to shoot you a note for some advice. Someone else from San Fran on the board sent me a bunch of places but I could always use more. I am going to be flying in Tuesday night, have a meeting all day Wednesday and a lunch meeting on Thursday and flying out on Friday so I definitely have some time to myself. Staying at some small boutique hotel near Union Square. Looking forward to it.

    They have the lineup set already, damn. That is a hell of a lineup. Gov't Mule, Haynes, Franti and the Avetts. Thats awesome. I am going to have to make this happen.

    Awesome, I will most definitely be shooting you a note over the next day or so. Thanks!
