A good article talking about the third year of Farmageddon Open Air:

While I missed the inaugural year, I attended this festival last year and plan on doing so again this June. I was impressed with the setup and the level of professionalism of the event, while still retaining an intimate feel. There are some great bands in the lineup this year, and the addition of some new (and rather tasty-looking) food vendors.
“What sets a metal festival apart from others is that it’s really quite the opposite of what someone who’s not accustomed to metal festivals would assume,”
I couldn't agree more with the above comment by Bleed's vocalist, Robert Kreed. It's great to go to an event with music and alcohol and not have to worry about being harassed, or random fights breaking out. It seems like most would think metal heads would make for an aggressive, obnoxious crowd, but my experience with various concerts and festivals has been the exact opposite. Farmageddon is a great atmosphere to make new friends, enjoy the craziness of being in a campground with a bunch of like-minded individuals and most important of all, indulge in some fantastic music.
