I'll be heading down. I checked the website and it said that camping gates open at 6pm.

Can't go this weekend. Family coming in from out-of-town. Have fun!

Is anyone camping? This will be my first VW show. .. I'm so excited! I plan on camping even though it's going to be nearly freezing

What a great weekend! Those drippin divers put on a hell of a show. We showed up on Friday afternoon/evening and the camping area was a little tight. There was a gravel road beside a barn that went to a back area that was kinda muddy and not really flat. The barn area and up by the road was awesome for camping. The barn was pretty awesome too. I ended up sleeping on a cot in the barn both nights. I sold parts as a vendor at the show and it still amazes me the size of the show for how new it is and everything. The turn out was amazing!

Saturday night there was a killer band that everyone kept asking if they were playing soundtracks while the band warmed up; they were not! It was good times with good people and I will definitely be back.

This show could be as big as Bug-a-Paluza very soon. Kale and his crew put a lot of work in and it shows! I enjoyed the venue, the turnout, the camping, and the people. Nick's not kidding about the band either, they really were that good. Everyone definitely had a good time.

I took some photos and I'll post them up pretty soon.

It was awesome meeting everyone. Great 1st show for myself. Thank you for the hospitality on beverages Russ

haha. I especially loved meeting original dealer mechanics and how free they were with sharing knowledge. The band Hale Mountain ROCKED. Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath covers were amazing. I searched online for them with no luck. Anyone know more info on the band?

Kale really knows how to throw a party! Almost done recovering... Big thanks to him and the rest of the Drippin Drivers for all their hard work. It was very cool crowd

. I agree: the band rocked especially the drummer that kept pushing the Old Crow Whiskey. The parts vendors were great: nice selection and fair prices. The show cars were outstanding once again. It seemed like there were more buses than last year. The Doctor Who themed bug was definitely my favorite show car. Did anyone get pictures of it?

That was officially the longest trip Butters has made yet. It only cost me an alternator belt on the way down and a lot of cursing/banging on the starter motor on the way back. Thanks to Russ and Nick for your patience. Can't wait until next year!

Here's a cool video someone put together at Cruise the Coop.

You can see my bus at 1:18

Footage of the pinata smash at 1:30

I never saw this guy at the show but apparently he walked around and interviewed some people, including Kale.
