Fairburn looks like it held "Harvest Fest" back from like 97-2000, maybe even more recently, man a saw some sweet Bluegrass line-ups on posters back then, would any old Georgia "Harvest Fest" veterans care to comment on the location and vibe? This could be a mini Bonnaroo! Hopefully without a 24 hour wait to get in and spun out wookies slinging soapium. I just hope the GA heat stays awya, and I mean 5-0, October should be nice

Hey Nobodyjam,
The old Harvest Fest stomping grounds is a great place for a festival, with inspiring and energetic, yet peaceful vibes. The lineups are always great. Not sure who Riverside is, but if they have Phil, imagine who else they might announce. I went to all of the Harvest Fests and enjoyed each one, even the ones that rained out. Go for it, especially with Phil and friends headlining.

Camp Bisco best festival of the year, however anything with Phil is pretty sick.

I can garentee this festival is far from corporate. I know most of the organizers, and they are all family. No way is it some corporate heads sitting around thinking of ways to get money out of hippies. they are bringing the family vibe. Support this show, and we might have a real bonnaroo. Remember 02?

If this touches Bonnaroo 02, look out! The production co. is clearly tight with Bisco and the Umph, so at least those 2 with Phil look 100% legit, this realy could be a new chapter in the fest world. For those in the dirty south, having Langarado to start and Echo to finish, well that bookends the year real sweetly. Thanks for the tip sharonmae, god help us if the GA 5-0t is like KS Wakarusa, we festivarians can't abide that big a buzz kill.

I was excited for this to come out since it was my friends deal, but the line-up is diverse and will really bring kids out from all over the board. The Line-up is The Killers, Phil, moe., cypress hill, The Roots, Spearhead, Umphreys, Bisco, Steven Marley, Cat Power, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, The Polyphonic Spree, Brazillian Girls, P-groove, The Avett Brothers, Toubab Krewe, Lyrics Born, Spam All Stars, ALO, The Afromotive, Greenskeeper, Rjd2. Thats what is announced on their site, Tea Leaf Green had a bulliton that said they were added around 8 tonight, The best line-up all season. I smell a Jammy.
