Campout East! Festival brings Camper Von Beethoven, Cracker and more to Crozet

The first-ever Campout East festival was announced earlier last week for June 17 and 18. The Misty Mountain Camp Resort-centered festival, in Crozet, will host New Year’s Eve rockers Cracker as well as that band’s predecessor, Camper Van Beethoven, plus as the local boys-done-made-good Sons of Bill. Also on the bill are Futurebirds and Those Darlin’s.
