It's only 45 minutes up Hwy 16 and then 65 to the closest point on the Buffalo River. Great place to swim, camp and canoe or kayak. Trout fishing in the White River and LIttle Red River, 2 cold water...

Yeah you rite! I went to the first 3 wakas and was thrilled to learn of the move to arkansas. I chose not to camp last year and the drive from my door to mulberry mountain was a short 2 hours!

Beautifully said, bdj. And grateful sam, you are suffering, as most of us do, from FOMS=fear of missing something.
Remember: Judge your fest not by the greatness of what you see, but by the...

He played Little Rock a few months back. It was a great show and an awesome vibe.

Some past waka bands I'd love to see again: John Brown's Body, Greyboy allstars, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Delta Nove who I see is playing harvestfest, and a band that had grass in their band...

Is that 11000 over the whole fest or 11000 per day?

I got your dope acorns right here.

Thanks, Babe.

I love that waka usually satisfies my need for New Orleans music. Some NOLA possibilites for next year:
John Boutte and Paul Sanchez for a singer songwriter spot
Shamarr Allen and the Underdawgs...

thanks for the info, jpeak. I was wondering how vip was this year. In years past vip food has never been great but that sounds worse than ever. Here's hoping they get some better "caterers" next...

After a two year absence, my return to waka in my home state was super sweet. The weather was just perfection, with a full moon to boot. Vendor food was delish--super nachos made my way, veggie pizza...

Thursday was the most perfect day I could imagine for festing. By evening many were throwing on jackets due to the fabulous breeze on the mountaintop.

When I left waka last night, there was indeed a "sobriety checkpoint" on hwy 23. It was on a straight stretch and 4 or 5 cop cars were there. The state police were conducting the checkpoint. They...

I parked in day parking yesterday for free but when I left last night folks were setting up tents in day parking. Not sure what saturday will bring.

As long as we're talking music, let's talk about the lack of reggae and other world music. Yes I know jah roots and chris berry and panjea and a few others were there but it was slim pickins. Jah...

The campground stage had those late night to early am jams the first year. Not sure about the last two. I'd like to see more new orleans music and more no waka shuttles. and don't forget to send...
