Good choice - Smaller festivals (esp. food festivals)can bring out some good musicians/bands. Cities/towns sometimes have Spring/Summer concert series, where the concerts are either free or low priced. I remember a real good one years ago in Pensacola, FL called "Springfest" which had a ton of bands/musician for a week like Eric Burdon, War, Love & Rockets, to name a few. Not sure if it is still going on.
Yes, a genre mix of musicians/bands can be quite fun, along with multiple stages available to attend. Festivals of a few days to a week or more can be an abolute blast. I'd love to travel around the US & internationally in the near future & attend several of these festivals. I've heard there are some good ones in the UK which can have upwards of 50 - 100 bands at the festival. Count me in !
Rock on,
George
