    Default The Nelsonville Music Festival 2010 - Nice

    Got this email from a friend of mine. The Nelsonville Festival is a cool small festival in the middle of nowhere, Ohio (well it is close to Ohio University) about 1 1/2 southeast of Columbus, so very do-able for me. It takes place May 14-16.

    Not bad at all for a multi-day festival, 3 day passes can be had for only $35-$45!!! That's crazy cheap.

    here's the line up so far (many more to be announced) http://www.nelsonvillefest.org/

    Loretta Lynn
    The Swell Season
    Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings
    Avett Brothers
    The Whigs
    Billy Joe Shaver
    Man Man
    Todd Snider
    Drakkar Sauna
    Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears
    Southeast Engine
    Michael Hurley
    Detroit Cobras
    The Spikedrivers
    Lydia Loveless
    The Alwood Sisters
    Seascapes
    Chris Biester
    Those Darlins
    The Glitter Freeze

    Hell yes! Thanks for this info. I was not aware of this at all. There should be some good drugs there too considering where it is. I'm getting my ticket right now.

    This starts tomorrow, I'm going. Man Man should make it worth it, along with a few other good bands.

    This was a great little festival. There was practically no security presence yet there were no problems and everybody was very respectful, just a great crowd all around. The scenery was actually really cool. It's in a hilly, wooded area with log cabins. One of them was used as an acoustic stage. Walking into this little cabin nestled back in the woods made those sets really unique and intimate. There were a bunch of good shrooms going around for really cheap so that was also really nice.

    Man Man was pretty disappointing, last time I saw them they were much better. Loretta was great of course and Billy Joe Shaver was one of the highlights of the weekend. Swell Season was the last band of the weekend and by that time most people left so I was able to walk right up to the rail and I got a setlist. The music highlight of the weekend for me was a band I'd never head of called GIVERS. They reminded me of Animal Collective without the yelping vocals and it was more psychedelic. They're from New Orleans and I just noticed they're on the ACL lineup so if you're going, don't miss these guys.

    Overall a great festival with a reallly nice vibe that I will definitely return to unless the lineup is terrible.
