Bottle Rock Napa




This weekend I had the pleasure of attending Bottle Rock Music Festival in Napa. This first annual music festival took place at the Napa Expo center, it was a blast. The Line-up was amazing and when I saw it, I knew I had to attend. Check it out here. The festival was spread out from wednesday to Sunday. I was planning on only going Friday but Ended up getting a free ticket to go on Sunday too, which was beyond lucky. I got to see some of my favorite bands. Friday I saw The Alabama Shakes, The Shins, and The Black Keys. All of which were amazing and unforgettable. On Sunday I saw Rogue Wave, Grouplove (GREAT performers), Michael Franti and Spear heard, Train, and Cake. t was so awesome seeing some of my most favorite bands all so close to where I live. All the artists commented on how happy they were to be here and hoe awesome the area is. I couldn't agree more!
The weather was perfect (a little hot at times). There was awesome food, beer, wine, etc. all over priced but I've learned to accept that at music festivals. The crowds were not overwhelming like most music festivals. There was only two main stages, one smaller stage, and one comedy stage. The conflicts in schedule were there but not as bad as other music festivals like Coachella and Outsidelands which have several stages to choose from. I can'y wait til next year, I am so there!
