Wheatland is nothing but a drugging and drinking place. I went this year for the first time. They have a "no weapons" sign just as you come in. There was an amublance there that day too. they charge $100.00 and for that you get the cold hard ground.They treat you like a four year old, I don't need some-one to tell me how to act as a responsible adult. The music was great but there is no excuse to set on the ground. They were bragging about how much they spent on the stages floor, they could sink a little more into the area around where people just set now, they could put up the same type that goes around the stage now. You know we all ar getting older and shouldn't have to be on the gound. They have the money to do the seating they just don't want to. They should be ashamed of themselves for promoting it as a family friendly place. Maybe you have weapons and ambulances at your place, I don't mess with that. Maybe someday, somebody's kid will get killed or raped up there. They don't have the brains,or will to stop anything going on up there, they are making too much money to stop. They are greedy and self-centered.

I would like to purchase a 3-day ticket, but I am too late to order on-line. May I purchase at the gate?

I will not have access to my e-mail until Labor Day, as I am riding my bicycle on the DALMAC -- Lansing to Mackinaw.

Thank you.

I look forward to Wheatland every year. When Sunday hits I am sad to go. I always meet new people and start new friendships. Between the Music, performers, food and family it makes a great final chapter of the summer. I'm going on my 19th Wheatland and wouldn't miss it for the world! Can't wait for 08!

Happy Wheatland!

15,000 people can't be wrong. The music is incredible. 2 1/2 stages and pick up/campsite bands seem to be within earshot 24/7. Many food and art vendors. Been camping on the farm since '77.

HAPPY WHEATLAND

Note: This was edited by Absolute Michigan, because we couldn't figure out what this had to do with Wheatland or music...it was however, quirky enough that we felt compelled to let a but stand.

Michigan State Senator Mark Schauer, State Representative Mike Simpson, State Representative Rick Jones and State Representative Mike Noffs will be donning the drivers gear and taking to the high banks of Springport Motor Speedway in a 10 lap sprint to prove who the fastest legislator is. The Bob Frahm CRC Congressional Challenge race will kick off at 7:30pm at Springport Motor Speedway.
