I was still in high school when I went to Iola. I really dont remember much about the bands,but I do remember a bus with a big banner reading'panama red'. They werent lying. That was some of the best weed I have ever tried! But back to the fest,I remember they had some kind of altercation sunday morning with a bike gang, I believe shots were fired but I dont remember if anybody was hurt.
