c-towns Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 This is the first time I have ever had any interest in this fest. Got any details about these day passes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-towns Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 ticket prices haven't been set yet but they all go on sale in May: Hilside tickets I recall these being somewhat hard to obtain or was that just for camping tickets? I'm only interested in the Denson/NMA night, what would be my best avenue for tickets? Is this place kid friendly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groove Fetish Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 VERY KID FRIENDLY!! and the days passes are easier to get. they don't always sell out and since the lineup isn't announced yet you could likely get them on line the day they go on sale no problem.

phishtaper Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 well, with all festivals, i like to get the carlos santana rumour going, but even i wouldn't bank on that one this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybone Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Super psyched!Thanks for sharing Tash!I already have my campsite booked.Hillside is always a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grateful_dave Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 how much is a campsite for the weekend(if they are not already booked)? can you take rv's or trailers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groove Fetish Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 campsites are booked the year in advance usually but don't take my word for it. (jaybone??) and no RVs or trailers that I've ever seen but I could be wrong on that too- we only camped one year as we live in Guelph so back and forth is pretty ok. But now that i think of it I imagine you can RV it in the campground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grateful_dave Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 thx, i found the website and i do believe rv's are allowed. but i havnt called to verify availability. thats too bad if its booked a year in advance. camping would be the way to go for me.

Groove Fetish Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I would call before tickets go on sale on May 7th...just in case there still are...or post to some site maybe craiglist re looking for hillside camping sometimes people decide they can't go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewRider Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I love that I live directly across the street from the Hillside office so the shuttle bus drops us off right at home each night. I'm hoping Zeus is on the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark tonin Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 I can't believe that no one seems to care about this??? Does no one know one of the greatest Sax players of our day> he plays a mean flute too. I definitely care about this ... I'm a big Karl Denson fan! He's a great player and his band is uber-groovy! And not too long ago I came across a cool picture of Karl Denson that somebody gave me for my birthday almost 7 years ago. If I am in Ontario for the Hillside weekend I will definitely be going. Thanks for sharing the news! Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groove Fetish Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Sam said that he will likely get Karl and the North Mississippi's to do a workshop together. Awesome- the workshops always rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edger Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Was first introduced to Karl at Gratefulfest four years ago. They certainly had me moving from the start. How very appealing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
