The Allman Brothers, Big Brother and the Holding
Company and the Hampton Grease Band will be some of the
groups appearing at the Love Valley Rock Festival, July 17-19.
According to the festival's publicity director, "Every thing
is coming together nicely for the festival. Its going to be the
social event of the year, and first for North Carolina."
The groups, all of whom are appearing for expenses only,
will not be restricted to one central stage but will perform at a
number of platforms set up in the parking areas.
Therefore, six to eight individual concerts probably will be
going on at one time. About six hours of music is planned for
each day of the festival.
Love Valley, population 74, is located about five miles off
Highway 115 between Statesville and North Wilkesboro.
Other groups appearing include: Ball and Chain,
Huckleberry Mud Flap, Blood Wyn Pig, Jonny Jenkins, Dcnnie
Dale, Radar, Warm, Calash, Lumbee and Change
Several of the top pop groups which played in Atlanta
during the July 4th weekend are also expected to be at Love
Valley.
Facilities for parking, camping and eating are being built to
accommodate between 100,000 and 150,000 people.
"Its going to be a people's festival and nobody's going to
get ripped off," said the publicity man'. "This isn't going to be
a big money making thing."
He also conceeded that concession prices will be strictly
controlled and that there would be no such thing as 40 cent
sodas and 75 cents for hamburgers.
Tickets will be priced at $5 for all three days.

THERE ARE PLENTY of people who don't
remember these kinds of rakes or the times
when farmers used to till their fields with them
tied behind mules. But occasionally one can be
found in an old, deserted meadow as rust makes
its inroads into the once-strong metal. (Photo
