It was always catered to the lower class and they'll never spend the money for a legit festival.


I'd say the early to mid 90s it wasn't near as bad as it had progressed in the early 2000's. They had some decent live music and was nice enough during the daytime to go and listen. Large boating contingent.

What finished it off was when the ridiculous "slaves were contraband" shite forced the name change.

The only people left by that time were the die hards and they were pissed off enough to call it quits.

They can deny it all they want, but that was the last nail in the coffin when they rolled over for one woman who had a problem with the name of the festival.
