| | But for the festival to offer an annual showcase of traditional musical forms, the collective needs a good turnout for its debut weekend. | | | The Sugar Maple Traditional Music Festival, which debuts Aug. 6 and 7 at Lake Farm Park on Lake Waubesa, is an exciting addition to local music calendars. | | | Organized by Madison's Four Lakes Traditional Music Collective as a showcase of traditional music's continued growth and vitality, the festival definitely won't be one of those bacchanalian affairs where hand-picked artists play second fiddle to the beer concession. |

| | Jon Pareles at the Bonnaroo Music Festival - New York Times |
| | It was probably the happiest music in a festival full of good-time bands. | | | The Bonnaroo Music Festival is a multi-stage camping festival held on a 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tenn. This year's lineup includes the Dave Matthews Band, Trey Anastasio, Widespread Panic and Modest Mouse. | | | Bonnaroo takes place the same weekend as the country-music institution that used to be Fan Fair and is now the C.M.A. Music Festival, so the mainstream country stars are signing autographs in Nashville. |

| | The Detroit Electronic Music Festival |
| | The irony is that electronic music has always had a deep focus on the future and the 2002 festival line-up looks to the past, with Atkins calling it "a history lesson." | | | The result is a festival heavy on straight-up dance music, without the explorative feel of the first two years. | | | The largest free music event in the world, it moved well over a million people in a churning mass of harmony, camaraderie and good vibes. |

| | DVD.net : Live From Bonnaroo Music Festival 2002 - DVD Review |
| | For those of you who dont know of the Bonnaroo festival (the term is Creole slang meaning really good time), it occurred for the first time in the American spring of 2002 and attracted in excess of 70,000 music lovers to a large stretch of farmland in Coffee County, Tennessee. | | | What the festival hoped to achieve was to fly in the face of corporate music whoring and provide a discerning music public with a line-up that ignored the ticket pull of aging stadium rockers and MTV-style label puppets alike. | | | Two core elements of the better shindig are music and masses (three if you want to count the odd tipple), so it comes as no surprise that the music festival, although nothing new, has evolved into modern mans Dionysian ideal. |

| | But, the people that were in attendance of this festival were all music fans (obviously) and were ready and willing to get into a good groove, as long as the music allowed. | | | Over the entire weekend, there were musical collaborations that you only dream about, which truly shows you how much the musicians themselves were enjoying this opportunity, and obviously how they would totally plan all their tours around this festival again. | | | This is Trey's music, and to see him now, conducting and all, it is the truest witness to improvisational musical genius any of us have ever seen. |

| | Austin City Limits Festival stays dry - Entertainment |
| | This weekend Zilker Park was an oasis of good music and even better weather as festival goers, bands and event coordinators basked in the sunshine and breathed a sigh of relief for this year's Austin City Limits Music Festival. | | | The death of the Austin Music Network, the cessation of smoking in bars and Hurricane Katrina have all left the city wondering if anything good was going to happen ever again. | | | If Death Cab are going to start playing festivals and arenas and have its slower and moodiest songs overcome the sonic deficiencies of these larger venues, then Gibbard is going to have to step up his vocals to crystal-clear enunciation level of post-"Out of Time" Michael Stipe. |

| | As with all good bluegrass festivals, half the fun was to be found in the campground. | | | The sun rarely poked its head out from behind the clouds to check out the happenings, and the misty drizzle was inescapable on Saturday, but the weather was never foul enough to distract the thousands from the beautiful music dotting the many stages at the 16th Annual Old Settler's Music Festival. | | | At a festival of this kind, there are hordes of technically flawless guitarists both on and off the stages, enough to drive home the point that technical proficiency just doesn't cut it. |
