Tennessee is typically very rainy in April and May. It is also VERY Humid IN August into september. June is hot, but it's typically a dry heat compared to the late summer months, and rain, while it happens, is far more sporadic than in in the earlier summer or spring months.
You also have to remember thatat least half of the target audience is 18-25 year olds, most of whom are in college. They want to bring in as many college kids as they can, and most college kids aren't in school in June.
The only downside about having it when they do is that it elliminates a lot of teachers and high school students. Granted, high school students aren't their target audience but I remember a couple of Krewers having finals around 'Roo. I know a lot of teachers who would have gone in previous years that couldn't because they were still wrapping up the school year and apparently you aren't allowed to take vacation time EVER if you are a teacher. That's a bummer.
Then again, it's not like Roo has difficulty selling out so what the frick do they care?
i wouldnt change the time of year, but i would change the location. anyone who has been to multiple festival sites knows that there are wayyyy better palces to hold a fest. but whatever, the farm does a a few good points. just not enough. the fact that its privately owned is a big plus, but thats really their only sellng point. but afterall its all about the music.
