We attended theDrew lynch show the people in the front checking tickets refuse to let them in. Another person with a service dog was also told they could not come in, and the men started to yell at them. After we messaged Drew through Facebook, his wife came out and called the owner, and they finally let them in, they were advised they were breaking ADA laws and their front door. People said they didn't care it was private property again they were let in only after the headliners wife came out and insisted they be let in along the fact that there is no heat in the building, we will never attend that theater again.

I wasn't a huge fan of the salmon (not their fault, I was just expecting an actual piece of salmon instead of a patty but I didnt read the menu properly). We also had the patty melt which was good. Drinks were good but service was definitely lacking. We would go back and sit at the bar since youre probably going to get better service there.

Now, I wanted to attend the Outlaw Music Festival to see some legends. I wasn't disappointed ! We got good seats. It was a splurge. We also pre-purchased parking ticket, good thing! Parking was easy but traffic exiting, was rough. Took over an hour. But that's too be expected. I let it slide because that's how festivals are. Location is not desirable. Hard to find, but this way neighbors can't complain about music being too loud. The food and beverage options reminded me of a state fair, which is good. Artist merch and everything was easy to find. I did like how vendors set up. Impressive for a music venue. Good quality for an amphitheater. Good size and sound. It would be nice to have a little more shade, but understandable. Bathrooms are okay. They need more cleaning attention, but so thankful there were so many stalls! My favorite part was seeing they sell food for after the show! Not many venues offer that. Overall, for an outdoor venue, they are very good!

My review is based on my ticket purchasing/customer service (or lack thereof) experience with HSMF…read moreand not about the festival experience since I never had the chance to attend. I bought tickets for my husband as a 2019 Christmas gift, for the 2020 show. Then Covid hit and they postponed the 2020 show, as did everyone else, and I completely understood. We were so excited for the rescheduled festival in 2021. Then they "postponed" that show too, even though by that point everything had re-opened and all the other festivals and shows were on. I don't know about you, but I've never heard of a 2-year "postponement" and wish we could just call it what it is. Regardless, we planned to finally attend in 2022. And then I found out my brother picked the same weekend to get married, on the east coast. He wasn't even engaged at the time the original event was scheduled to have happened, so I had no way of knowing about this conflict 2 years down the road, and of course the *very* small window to receive a refund had already passed. I am not sure how HSMF got away with offering such a narrow window for 2020 refunds, and so early on (more than a year before the rescheduled show), but they offered zero help or support when I reached out to them about this issue. They informed me I would have to join their Facebook group to sell my tickets since they wouldn't refund me themselves. I joined the group, posted the tickets, and my post was removed so it was not a feasible means of resale. Then I got an email that HSMF was soon to be selling tickets for 2022, so I once again reached out to them and asked very kindly if they could please accept a return on my tickets due to the unprecedented TWO YEAR postponement, a family wedding that I cannot miss, and the fact that they'd be selling these tickets later the same week anyway- why not sell mine too?! But nobody even had the decency to respond to me. It takes a special kind of *insert favorite word for a mean person* to take over $600 from someone during a pandemic, "postpone" the event for two YEARS, not make an exception for such extenuating circumstances, and not even have the decency to reply. Just pocketing the money of music fans without offering any type of genuine humane support or understanding. Needless to say, going forward I will not be supporting a festival that operates in such a way. We've been to music festivals all over the country and never had a negative experience, so there's plenty of good music and festivals out there where people are treated right. Buyer beware!

I used to help…read moreout backstage, once carrying two of Steve Kimock's legendary guitars off stage after an epic performance in somewhat cold weather. I remember Steve saying, "It's like playing chickens out there." At the time that made perfect sense. If memory serves, this was the first time a lot of us tried Sierra Nevada beer (back then a sibling on the emerging craft beer scene) and the entire experience was warm and friendly. I never made it back between the early 90s until this year. I am so happy I decided to finally return. The festival has changed locations (a couple of times since) and become a lot bigger and organized. There are scores of bands, too many to see as four or five are playing at once on the different stages, but it is easy enough to walk around and catch a few songs of each. If it's hot, there is a swimming pool $8, or so. And the camping is fun. Pulling in at the beginning can be a bit stressful in sorting out your space, but once the dust settles, it's all dandy. Folks say this is a music festival for musicians, and I agree. But of course all are welcome. I hope to return again.
