I really want to like this event but last year the restroom lines and beer lines were unmanageable. The old set up just doesn’t work for the size it has become. Hoping for some big improvements because it could be so awesome.

I love this event too, but the crowds have completely outgrown the Island. I am going to skip it this year. I spent more time waiting in lines last year than I did listening to music.

I took a walk around Kingman Island some time way, way after the last event there (several months if not a year or so) and it was absolutely a mess. I really don’t think they had cleaned up from the last festival fully (numerous amounts of garbage strewn about, overflowing trashcans, flyers from the last festival, large empty boxes stacked and deteriorated, signs for the different stages, etc.) I really hope they step up their post-event clean up efforts after this event. I couldn’t believe my eyes.

Is this event baby-friendly? We’ll have an almost 5 month old and I think it’d be cool to go for a little bit but can’t decide if that’s too young still.
