- DutchmenSportExplorerWhich Dover? Dover Mass, Dover Deleware, Dover Ohio, Dover TN, Dover Arkansas, Dover Colorado, Dover KY, Dover PA, Dover NC .... you get the idea.
I guess I've never been there since I don't know where it is. Sounds like it might be a fun destination, if I knew where it was. - abc40kidsExplorerDover Delaware
- I have seen Art Mann walking around those fire fly and stagecoach concerts.. What a scene, I guess that maybe I am just getting old.... I did however think about it for a few seconds because of the big names performing......
- gclossExplorerI've camped at music festivals with my RV. Been there and done that. Like ford truck guy said, I'm getting old as well.
We went to Taste of Country Music Festival in upstate NY. We camped right on top of the next which was ok, but the lack of real security was the biggest problem for me and my family. The problems were not people with RVs, it was tent camping teenagers, drunk and running throughout the RVs, fighting, stealing and urinating on RVs. Got so bad we (RV owners) had to call in the local Sheriff's Department because the festival security was useless.
This year instead of the Taste of Country, we are headed to Nashville for CMA Fest staying in Nashville KOA. - NY_RVerExplorerFunny you mention that gcloss, I gave Dover a thought for a minute, and then remembered pictures I saw of Taste of Country which I wanted to go but changed my mind last minute. I guess I'm getting too old for that scene also, not what I prefer with the wife and family. Been thinking of Nashville myself. How long is the ride from NY?

Security is the main reason for giving up on Taste of Country, far too many drunken underage kids fighting and causing problems. The second reason is the cost is out of sight.
While I live on Long Island I keep my TT in Gardiner NY. We will be leaving for Nashville from Gardiner heading down the NYS Thruway to I-287 then I-78 out to I-81 to I-40 straight through to Nashville. Google maps tells me it is about 925 miles one-way from Gardiner. We plan on 2-3 day out to Nashville.
On the way back we have reservations in Pigeon Forge area for 5 days. I figure 1 day to Pigeon Forge and then 1-2 days from Pigeon Forge back to Gardiner. gcloss wrote:
