All Good Music Festival 2010 Review [Festival Family]
Masontown, West Virginia is a small city that has been hit pretty hard by the recession. All Good Music Festival is an annual family gathering that takes place, this year it is said, a fire house has been built with the funds by the gathering. In the fourteen years that this festival has been around this is the first time that it has sold out to 26,000 family members. Old timers that have been coming for years say that this is the last hurrah, it is all downhill from here, with the crowd size and growing prices. Most of the people that I spoken with said it was that best time of their lives, and greatest festival experience. It is no mistake that it is called All Good and growing at the rate it is.
Great photo set.
Hidden Track just filed their first report from All Good Music Festival which went down this past weekend. We were sorry to miss our chance to send a photographer there (long story), so we’re grateful that these guys got it together and covered the festival in depth. The similarities to High Sierra and Summer Camp, two festivals I’ve been to in the past, look spot-on in terms of the size and vibe emanating from the festivals. I’m not sure I can go back to the big mega huge festivals after having such a relaxing, musically inspiring time at the smaller, more intimate festivals. All Good may just need to be on my list for next year. Can’t wait for the second part of the review…
The All Good Music Festival has announced yet another round of additions to its 2010 lineup, including: Old Crow Medicine Show, Tea Leaf Green, The Bridge, Donna Jean Godchaux Band w/Jeff Mattson, The Heavy Pets and The Pimps of Joytime.
