Two more music festivals happen this coming weekend, May 16, 17, 18 and 19, one right near the Florida-Alabama line and one in Brooksville, outside Tampa.

Hangout is not a camping festival, and it has a lot of rules. It's on the beach, but you can't swim. Or bring a chair, an umbrella, a shade tent, or a backpack. No cameras with detachable lenses, and no audio recording equipment. Kids under age 10 are free, but you can only bring two kids for each supervising adult. There are more rules here.
The lovely Sertoma Youth Ranch outside Brooksville (near Tampa) is home to the Orange Blossom Jamboree., festgrrl HIGHLY recommends this sweet festy, which has a kind vibe. Advanced tickets are available -- 3-day pass is $60, and 4-day pass is $75. At the gate, a 3-day pass is $75 and a 4-day is $90.
