Favorite Band You've Seen At Mountain Jam: Blitzen Trapper

Hi all - I'm psyched to go to my FIRST mountain jam! Not sure what took me so long. I've seen all the headliners several times, and even some of the mid-bill acts. Really excited about Blitzen Trapper (but wishing they were lat night!).
At this point, it looks like I'll only be there on sat., but possibly Sun., too.
Can anyone give insight into show start times? When does the first act go on? It looks like two stages, but close together, so a continuous bill. (If it's like Grace Potter's Grand Point North here in Burlington, the two stages will be next to one another, so you don't have to move to see the "minor" or in-between acts.
I can guess which acts are "main stage" and which are not, I suppose. Any advice from your previous experience is much appreciated!

The shows start at noon. Yes two stages running so when one band is playing, the other one is setting up. As soon as the band is done, the music starts at the other stage.
If you want anything else, let us know!

I appreciate that, Soulmate! Now I wish things started later... It'll be pretty early for Blitzen Trapper. Maybe too early. But I admit to not knowing for sure from the daily listing what bands are where & when. Does MJ release details on stage / times closer to the show date? I want to be sure I'm in place for Tweedy, Blitzen Trapper, and Junior Gong!

Indeed, the daily schedule is usually released a bit in advance.

We should be getting the stage schedule some time in May. You'll have it with plenty of time to map out your day. Based on how the bands are listed on the daily lineup, Blitzen/Tweedy/Damien will probably be playing late afternoon into early evening.

Last year they had a slot on Friday & Saturday in the Hall of solid bands right before headliner and after 2nd biggest acts. Friday night after Avetts and right before Panic were Futurebirds, and they killed it! One of my favorite sets of the weekend. And Sat after Lumineers & before Mule was The Revivalists. I missed them b/c my group is lame (lol), but we went by and it looked like a lot of fun. I hope they do that time slot again. It's a time where everyone is feeling it and bands like Reignwolf & Blitzen Trapper would be perfect.
