Yeah, there are a lot of them but for the most part, these are people that like and are respectful of all kinds of music. As for me, I'll try to be front and center for The National, The Hold Steady, and Spoon. And you definitely check out Old Crow Medicine Show. You'll like 'em even if you don't like bluegrass.

At the bottom of the hill, a 1/2 mile down the road? Cropredy, also known as the home of the Fairport Convention festival. I spent so many summers as a kid stumbling down that hill, sneaking pints of cider out of the pub tents and watching weird folk music on the often-waterlogged, rainy stage.<br/><br/>Weird crowd; definitely good memories though. It wasn't until I turned 16 [almost a decade ago, fuck] that I realized how big that festival is. You'll find plenty of wicca, new age talismans and such down Cropredy way.<br/><br/>Small fucking world.

Never heard Gillian Welch, I'll have to check it out.<br/><br/>Ace: Is that Richard Thompson from Fairport Convention? I'm obviously gonna' see Tea Leaf, barring any guest appearances from late 90s pop stars. You know how I get about backstreet.<br/><br/>Some Dude: Glad you like Dr. Dog. I don't get the lack of love thrown at those guys. Their sound might not be original, its just good. Critics sometimes seem to forget a good song is all that really matters.<br/><br/>JT: Thanks for the tip. Sounds definitely like something I'd be into.

Definitely jealous.

There ARE a lot of hippies there but they are mostly friendly and harmless. I agree Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga and Boxer are easily two of the best things in 2007. I would take in Decemberists, Elvis Perkins and Gillian Welch. Have fun! I attended Bonnaroo in 2004 and had a great time. There ARE a lot of hippies there but they are mostly friendly and harmless.
