synaesthesia Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Has anyone ever been to this event?Capitol City Carnival Is it worth a $40 ticket? I haven't been. But the bands playing on Saturday seem well worth the money. But that's just my opinion. The beer options also sound pretty good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waitman Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I haven't been. But the bands playing on Saturday seem well worth the money.. Only two hours for P-Funk? Haven't they heard that a P-Funk party don't stop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beer options also sound pretty good... I don't think anyone has ever been (first year they're doing it). Avett Brothers, Saturday afternoon. Beer list is pretty ecclectic: Harbin from China? Breckenridge, Great Divide from CO, some stuff from the greater EastCoast area that I've never had (Orlio? Foothills? Asheville?). Sounds like a good fest.

RobRutII Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I don't think anyone has ever been (first year they're doing it). Avett Brothers, Saturday afternoon. Beer list is pretty ecclectic: Harbin from China? Breckenridge, Great Divide from CO, some stuff from the greater EastCoast area that I've never had (Orlio? Foothills? Asheville?). Sounds like a good fest. It seems this is a new offering from the production group who have brought us the Vintage Virginia festival for the past 3(?) years. I've been to THAT shindig a couple of times and have certainly had fun-- plenty of food and plenty of room (Bull Run is spacious but unshaded; in the autumn it is bound to be more comfortable than what I've experienced). As for the brewers, while Belgian beer fans might be a bit disapointed the best of the best of Virginia are certainly represented with the likes of Starr Hill (not yet locally available, but should be soon), St. George (personal friends-- great stout!), and Cally's (formerly Calhouns of Harrisonburg, and makers of one of the best and most approachable American-Scottish ales I've tasted). And, damn, P-Funk? I'd plan on being there myself if family matters had not come up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
