This Week's Podcast Episode

In this episode of the Music Festivals Podcast, I recap my trip to Missouri for the 10th anniversary of the Pickin' on Picnic Music Festival at Lost Hill Lake. It was my very first visit to Missouri, and this festival was packed with highlights, from a magical hickory grove venue to some of the best bluegrass and jam grass music around.

I share my experiences at this incredibly well-organized event, covering everything from family-friendly activities, the unique outdoor amenities, and the big role that community and mental health initiatives play at this festival. Plus, I talk about the expansive wellness and green initiatives, standout food vendors, and the festival’s one-of-a-kind custom merch options.

 

 

Festival Performance of the Week

This week's festival performance of the week is a different kind of performance.

This Q&A with Del McCoury and sons Robbie and Ronnie took place at the 10th Anniversary of the Pickin on Picknic in 2025 and covers everything from bluegrass family traditions to road stories from decades on tour. Presented by Goshen Coffee Roasters, this special live audience Q&A digs into the origins of the Del McCoury Band, how Del first met David Grisman and Jerry Garcia, what it's like performing with family, and the impact bluegrass has had on multiple generations. There’s plenty of laughter, candid advice for young musicians, and even a few tales about band life and festival mishaps.

Heyo Neighbors, I'm NeighborN8...

If you're here, we probably met at a festival. Or just maybe you heard about Music Festivals Podcast in the campground from your neighbors.  Maybe you were searching for deals on camping gear and found is that way, who knows?  However you landed on this website, I'm sure glad your here. 

We both ❤️ going to music festivals.  The people, the vibes, the music, the campfire jams, the vendors, the food, the party ... all of it.

But planning your experience can be a pain in the ass.  Some venues and producers put out a ton of content and information to help you.  But for whatever reason, most don't.

I hope to see you in the Neighborhood, and I hope to we get to be camp neighbors at the next festival! 🏕️
