It's been much warmer and more rain the last few weeks than previous springs. The rain is my concern. That will bring out the skeeters in full force in swampland.
The last two or three years, I don't think we got ANY rain this time of year. We have gotten some rain recently, but the ground is so dry, that it soak's in pretty quickly. It won't be anything like it is during the rainy season. Of course I still plan on covering myself in bug spray.

Apparently the single-day ticket holders ran into a few snags from Inforado:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So I just got back from my first (and officially last) day at Langerado this year (and ever). Well, not really a day. More like 1.25 hrs since it took over 1.5 hrs to go the last 2 miles to enter. The traffic plan and parking is an absolute joke.
1) To have all entering and exiting traffic use a 1 lane unpaved, bumpy, dirt road with 6 inch deep 2 feet wide potholes is unacceptable. Especially when there is a 2-lane paved road which is not being used by any vehicles. Unless you own an SUV be prepared to travel 5 mph on it and to possibly damage your car and/or alignment.
2) Restricting the aforementioned 1 lane unpaved road to only exiting traffic at 11 o'clock at night for over 1 hour, forcing entering to stop completely.
3) Forcing all entering and exiting day traffic to not only leave on the same aforementioned 1 lane unpaved road, BUT to have them exit out of the same exact car check/entrance area. In other words, cars that leave drive directly next to cars that are coming in right at the gate area.
Whoever thought of this traffic pattern needs to be thrown in the canal which separates the unused paved road and the 1 lane unpaved, stone-filled road. This is an absolute embarrassment and I can honestly say I will never ever be attending another Langerado festival ever. Which will be kind of sad because I have attended every one except 5.
Markham Park was 10000X better and more enjoyable. The traffic and parking planning for Big Cypress is absolutely terrible.

just went to iClips and found this:
Apparently a piece of equipment was fried last night during the storm. We are awaiing the delivery of a replacement part, which will occur either tonight or tomorrow. Either way, we are taking steps to air footage tonight. Please stay tuned, and thank you all for your continued and limitless patience.
Storm my ass, I guarantee Inforoo at Langerado is behind this, and I have no quacking idea what gave them the idea my patience is continued or limitless.

I can feel the FAIL coming on with Langerado. I don't know why, but I just feel it.
I feel partially responsible, letting that group go down there unsupervised. I am sure they'll have lots of entertaining tales of altered-state inspired"practical jokes" they pulled on those running things all weekend.

I feel that coming on too, and it's strange because I have no certain reasons.
I think I was bitter that I couldn't go and have fun, but I hope my everyone who went is making the best of it.

I feel like such a dork for saying this but I miss the langerado crowd.....things kinda died down when they left.... I feel kinda bad for them though, with crazy bad weather and bands cancelling and what not

Only complaints I have heard from friends who are there are about lots of fake alice.
There is nothing worse at fests than buying fake Alice Cooper , going back to camp, putting it in the CD player, and hearing some godawful cover band coming out of the speakers.

Finally found my cassette adapter, listening via laptop playing through cassette adapter, stock ford ranger stereo and sound quality is excellent considering all that, can't wait for Mule at Wanee next month!!!
