What is meant by "Primitive camping will be available in a field within walking distance of Kingsland Bay State Park."? Are there other musical types there? A chance at jamming/singing? A quiet place to sleep when one finally peters out? Porta-potties? Is there access to flush plumbing once one gets back into Kingsland Bay State Park? Any Mudcatters with experience here? --Charlie Baum |

This year will by my first time going to CVFF since 2001, before they moved back to Kingsland Bay. The line-up doesn't seem nearly quite as strong as I remember it being then, but I'm really looking forward to seeing Jez Lowe and The Bills. |
