Strawberry Music Festival

I'll be there both spring and fall this year. Any other TBer's gonna be there? I have Strawberry to thank for changing my life as a musician, and it would be great to see some of you there.

I'm thinking about it. I'm the only one out of all my jam friends that hasn't been.
I hear the Spring can be too cold.
Looks like the big acts come in the Fall.

I've been to both, and yes spring is cold. There's a certain awesome factor that comes with the spring festival though. Last year, it was 75 degrees when we showed up on Thursday, and woke up Friday morning to snow. Watching Joan Osborne in the snow on Friday night was nothing short of magical. If cold weather camping isn't your thing, then yeah Fall would be the better choice.

Lived in the Tahoe area for almost 10 years and never made it to either show, to my regret.
I'm closer to that scene musically than I was then but geographically much more distant...
I'd love for it to happen some day, but meanwhile I'm trying to be more adventurous about attending events that are local to me now.

Have fun out there - I do miss the Sierra...

I've been three Falls in a row and LOVE it. Not sure about this year...kids in school now and it's a long drive. But I highly recommend it.
