Summer Camp. Late night. Quixotic. Red Barn. Aerialists. Dancers. Violinist. Enough said.

Summer Camp Music Festival may have just become my new favorite festival. And not just because I just woke up to this beautiful tree view laying in my hammock.

Upon arrival, Summer Camp may seem like a pain. No car camping. Which means you need to haul everything in. But if you bring a wagon or are friendly enough to borrow one from a neighbor it’s not so bad. And then you realize the beauty of no cars. Everyone is more intimate, it’s even more of a community built at Scamp. Plus there are hardly any rules. When you enter you “have your bags checked” but it is the most lax check I have ever seen so you can bring in all the booze or whatever you may want without any hassle. Then once you have it in the campground, that is the same as the festival grounds, so you can freely drink all your own booze without worrying about getting checked again!!

Then comes the music. Scamp has 7 stages: Sunshine, Starshine, Campfire, Camping, Vibe Tent, Soulshine Tent, and the Red Barn! My Thursday Throwdown favorites were of course Cornmeal and Digital Tape Machine at the Starshine stage. Cornmeal did an amazing cover of Dear Prudence, and their fiddle player Allie Kral stole my heart last night!! Between that and their late night set at Soulshine doing their Summer Camp Ramble, I was amazed and then saddened to learn that this weekend will be Allie’s last set!! Be sure to catch Allie tonight at the Campfire stage late night and Cornmeal’s last show Saturday!

WAKA STAGE SCHEDULE!!!

WAKA is only a few weeks away, and they finally released their schedule!!! Perfect I can’t wait to start planning!!

Thursday I’m going to have to see Moon Taxi, haven’t had the chance to see them since Bonnaroo last summer! Next I love some Galactic, although a daytime set is interesting for them. Then of course Yonder, Karl Denson, The Black Crowes, STS9, The Motet, and The Werks.

My Friday faves include SOJA, Umphrey’s, Dispatch, Zed’s Dead, and even more STS9 and Galactic! I think I will enjoy the late night sets more than the Thursday daytime sets, but it will be great to see both! Last year I had no problem with both a day time and late night Umphrey’s show, which we of course get again this year with Saturday!!! Papadosio and the late nights will be sick too!

On Saturday Rebelution has their first show, which is always a wonderful and happy day time show filled with great vibes. The night is filled with my favs Widespread Panic and Umphrey’s McGee!! 

Sunday was my happy WAKA day last year. I remember half of the crowd left and I just enjoyed my time hammocking all day and listening to amazing music. And I’m so excited that WAKA is closing out with EOTO again this year!! I loveee some Cheese and if EOTO is the closest I can get, I’ll take it!!

What is your favorite day of the schedule!? Who are you most excited for?! What conflict just erksss you?!
