how did you like Sweetlife?

[Seth Hurwitz]

give it to me baby

[James Ford]

I didn't go, but i can say the bathroom lines sucked.

Just kidding.

I didn't go this year, but how did the weather hold up?

[BrettnotBritt]

Weather aside (during Foxygen, argh), I thought it was really well run. This is coming from someone who got to enjoy his first music festival since we had a baby eight months ago (in-laws watched him the whole day), and we have been to a lot of fests pre-baby, so I really made an effort to make the most of the day.

Pavilion access was MUCH easier compared to prior Sweetlifes. I don't know if there wasn't as much demand for pavilion as there was for lawn (which was PACKED) this year, but getting in and out was seamless. Lines for restrooms were tolerable, too.

Really hope you can land some of the same vendors for FreeFest this year. Rappahannock Oyster crab cake for $10 was a STEAL (it's $14 at their Union Market location), and of course amazing.

At any rate, we had a blast. Oh and Seth, if 24oz DC Brau drafts can be a permanent fixture at MPP, that would be swell.

I really dug that band SHARK WEEK

hmm.. that sounds yummy... i love that beer....

[wml7]

hmm, I guess not that many from the board went to the fest this year.  Makes Sethy mad.

It was a blast!!!
I'm glad i paid for pavillion tickets. I had no problem finding a seat.
i really liked where the treehouse stage was located.
9:32 club was killer!

I loved the different beer selections. yum.

a lot of fun was had by all my friends and for that I thank you

Fun band.
I saw them on an odd bill with The Babies (meh) and Lorelei (always awesome) once.

My kid and her friends had a really good time at the festival. They enjoyed the music and the food. The rain not so much.

[Yada]

I can't believe atomicfront missed this festival.

[bekessler]

Had a great time.  Fans inside the shed were great when it was hot and there were a good amount of covered options when the rain came down.  Thought the treehouse stage was very, very well stocked...although my favorite band of the day was the YYYs.

i didn't make it to this festival because i had plans earlier in the day, and MPP is a hassle to get to.  if i trek out to MPP, i need to do so on the early side so i can beat some of the traffic and get a full day's entertainment in.  leaving at 4, spending 2 hours crawling in traffic and risk missing any of the top half of the bill... can't do it.  i love MPP as a venue but its remoteness is a big minus.

the lineup was solid and if i had nothing else to do that day i would have made the trip out.

Hmmm... as a local all of these years, you don't know the MPP trick for not hitting traffic?

[Vas Deferens]

too expensive for a one day fest
