Tyler Childers

Loved the cause and mission of the event, Tyler Childers put on a hell of a show ! I love the messages that he shares within his art/music. My only complaints are of the venue itself. It was stated online that there would be water fill stations when camping on the grounds. This was not true. The car camp grounds only provided porta potties and trash stations that piled quickly. I was told by a guy who was managing the volunteer group that everyone needed to bring their own drinking and shower water. Thankfully our camp did, but was worried about needing to refill. It should be stressed on their site that if you car camp you must bring in all water that you may need for the weekend. I do not feel as though this was stated clearly on their websites. I’ve been to other festivals where potable water is accessible throughout camps, thankfully I came prepared for the opposite this time. Also, security was a joke. Upon arrival in the grounds our tickets were not even scanned, was only asked what tickets and camp we had bought and was given tags/wristbands. They did not search a single thing or even glance around the vehicle. Upon entry inside the venue volunteer security seemed clueless at times, barely checked bags, and was waiving people through. The careless attitude of the security made my camp crew feel a little uneasy just thinking about how easy it could have been for someone to bring any weapon inside the venue and campgrounds. When parking for camp they had teenagers out there directing traffic who were all clearly clueless as to how to direct traffic and park individuals.
