Arkansas?

really!?

 

so was this a one time thing? scratch that, it looks like there was one in 2009, in diferent places? this looks like an amazing time.

 

It's the fest I referred to in another thread. It was as if I was suddenly surrounded by hippies and I was so happy! Lots of psytrance - really really good introduction for me.

Several factors led to it being less than it could have been for me, but the responsibility was all mine.

It was supposed to be somewhere around Austin this year, but I haven't seen anything for months. I know there were financial issues.

I hope you'll keep looking for fests; I know I will. Please post any fests or gatherings you find. You could look at (your city) tekno sounds.

 

all the speakers listed were amazing and i know only one person who has heard of BT...and to see him man, would be sick

if they make money and do this again i hope to be able to find a way there by any means necessary

and what kinds of fests do you mean? music festivals? cuz they are EVERYWHERE!!!

 

Suddenly I'm having several fest conversations in different threads. Yes, music, esp psytrance or the Banhart hippie-type music. Psychedelic fest. The Fun Fun Fun fest in Austin didn't sound great to me. Like I said, I was SO HAPPY to be back among so many hippies at Coalesscence. But I'm not doing too well finding small-medium size fests with camping. That's why I'm posting and posting, because sooner or later, it will open up for me.
