    The Gathering of the Vibes, which was in Bridgeport, Connecticut (returning to the original venue after a brief stay in upstate NY), was pretty sweet. All Good is another one that you can probably make if you can get to Bonnaroo. :)

    I am from delawhere too:) my favorite one right now is Shakori Hills grassroots music festival. It's a nice 7 hours drive down to NC and is so laid back and the music is just great.

    Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida is one of the best camp venues I've visited. They have two fests, Suwanee Springfest and one in the fall, Magnoliafest. generally great line-ups for each and the place is very chill, great campsites, outdoor showers and accommodations for just about everyone.

    if you go astaff, pick me up on your way south. =))

    If you are looking to get away from over sold corporate festivals and looking to get back to a small friendly and family orinated fest...check out Camp Barefoot
