People cooking.
Kind of feels like Woodstock, you know, a bunch of years later, but without all the free love.
Walk over to a stage in the afternoon.
If there's an artist you might like, go back to your campsite.
It was really a culture changer for country music, even production wise.
You know, year one, it had good infrastructure, which ended up being great.
You know, not perfect, but organized enough that people trusted coming back with bigger rigs for their sets.
And also more people trusted it to stay.
They would bring their campers.
And then also bringing in college kids and families.
It was one of the first to do and mix everybody.
Long time country music fans, people coming to dance, people coming to party.
And that was the mix that made the country music festival what it is today.
Now, why it belongs in the 1996 top 10 is after that weekend, well, it all changed.
Artists had a live lab where thousands could, well, road test new material.
Fans waited all year to go back and make it a full weekend.
Local businesses learned, well, we got to staff up because we got a lot of people coming to our town.
Stations built annual coverage plans, and word of mouth did the rest, and now we have festivals.
Practically every weekend, all summer, multiple ones.
So that's why we put that at number 10.
