Arghh...I'm so depressed, TMG is the same weekend as the Grassroots Festival just down the road in Trumansburg. I live very near Treman Park and missed last year's TMG because I was across the country. It was the weekend before the 'Roots festival which was great. I was so looking forward to this year's TMG but now with the overlap am feeling blue. The 'Roots festival is a 4 day celebration of roots and world music and has onsite camping. It draws heavily from the local alternative community and likely reduces potential TMG attendees. I have family that comes in every year and know a number of people for whom it is a focal point of their summer activities. Maybe it will provide some spillover and be a good thing for TMG. It's a sad thing for me as I intended to be as involved in TMG as i could be, up front and as an attendee. Now it will be limited at best. Was this a conscious decision?
