“LSNet, a local Internet Service Provider for the Twin Counties
in Virginia and Alleghany County, North Carolina, is hosting the
second annual Linux Festival in Independence, Virginia on Saturday,
June 24, 2000.”
“The festival will celebrate the upstart of the operating
system community, Linux. Like last year, LSNet will provide free
food & drink, prizes, and an eclectic selection of live musical
entertainment including local band Cryptameria (http://www.cryptameria.com).”
“Originally, the festival was to be a May Day thing, but last
year it was too cold – so we pushed it back so as to enjoy warmer
weather,” says LSNet Sales and Marketing Director, Starr Hopkins.
“We had a real blast though. Lots of live music; including
Cryptameria, Fred Ross (local violinist with tons of talent), Casey
Hash. People came from India (via Georgia, of all places), Raleigh,
NC and West Virginia.”
