Note that on the first page at Sorcha's post, "schedule" and "performers" are in small print.

The "real" schedule is -

Sunday, Sept 8, we'll get in line to get into the campground. If the weather's nice, we'll open up the trailer, but everything stays hooked up for travel. Pickin', gossip, and meeting new folks for a few days.

Thursday, Sept 12, the official "Land Rush" where everybody has to drive through the front gate, get wristbands and camp permits, and "rush" to get their favorite spot in the campground. This is only important if you have a large camper - or a fairly large group that likes to camp together. It's only really important if you want/need one of the 600 odd electrical hookups.

Pickin' and partyin' starts as soon as camp is set up.

Thursday, Sept 19, a rumor will circulate that some "performers" have arrived, but nobody will notice much.

Sometime Friday or Saturday, someone will ask if "anybody's going to hear (somebody great)," which will get a "If the jam breaks up, we might."

Sunday, Sept 22, while hooking up to pull out, somebody will find one of the schedules that's ready to trash, and will notice that "Hey, (somebody great) was here -- we should have gone to see them.," which gets - "well, there's always next year. Maybe we'll be better organized."

[Actually, there are some really good acts, and we do go to the "grandstand" occasionally - for the chance to meet the performers. I actually listened to a performance once 4 years ago, and I've got a couple I'd really like to hear this year - if I get "organized".]
