ryan snagged me a ticket for merlefest this year and i am more excited than ever, simply because i will finally get to see the nitty gritty dirt band LIVE and it’s gonna be incredible. and of course the atmosphere is more than enough to be excited about but damn it’s gonna be a fun few days if we do decide to camp this time around. i went 2 years ago with my mom and her boyfriend and had a blast so i can’t imagine what it’ll be like with this crowd.
