Saturday was expected to be the big day.
The big artists. The day of big attendance. The day of the heaviest excesses.
And?
It was one big party.
The Wakarusa Festival continued into Saturday with artists such as Widespread Panic, Zappa Plays Zappa and The Black Keys and a population of festival goers that certainly reached its highest point of the entire event, which continues through today (Sunday) at Mulberry Mountain near Ozark.
It was a full day of music, dust, heat, partying and more. If you can imagine it, it can happen at a music festival.
High temperatures did not temper the enthusiasm of the crowd, which turned out in force to see the mainstage artists such as Widespread Panic, who drew a crowd of perhaps 10,000 fans that formed a sea of dancers.
There were plenty of other memorable sets, too.

Hear them live before you go: Tea Leaf Green
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
Tea Leaf Green is looking for a reason. They’ve got a reason to be in Fayetteville: They play tonight (March 9) at George’s Majestic Lounge.
Friend of the blog and music aficionado DGold, host of the Honest Tunes Radio Show on KXUA (88.3 FM) is hosting a live performance and a live Web cast from California-based rockers Tea Leaf Green, who play today (March 9) at George’s Majestic Lounge.
The band will be playing live (acoustic) at 6 p.m. on the radio show and streamed live from the show via UStream starting about 9 p.m.
For details or links, check out http://dgold.info/radio
Of course, nothing beats seeing a show live. The show starts about 9 p.m.; local band Mountain of Venus opens. Tickets, which are available through the venue’s Web site, are $15.

Concert Wrap — Harvest Festival, Day 3
Saturday, August 15th, 2009
The Avett Brothers
As I stood watching the Thursday night (Aug. 13) activities at the Mulberry Mountain Harvest Music Festival near Ozark, it sure looked like there were fewer people at the festival than the year before.
Had the change in date got them? Did last year’s hurricane condition — and rain at previous festivals, too — dissuade people from coming?
Nope.
The difference in attendance between Thursday night and when I returned to the festival site in the early afternoon hours of Friday (Aug. 14) was remarkable. And people just kept coming.
When I arrived again on Friday, I was forced to park at the outermost of the camping grounds. Just an hour later, after watching the bands, my campsite was engulfed, just another spot in a ever-widening army of tents and cars with out-of-state plates.
It’s hard to say how many people are currently on the Mulberry Mountain site, which is located on Arkansas 23 about 8 miles south of Arkansas 16.
But it’s clear that the beautiful weather, coupled with the prospect of seeing bands such as The Avett Brothers, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and dozens of other acts, were too hard to resist.
