I know the people who run DD. They have always had trouble and would try sketchy plays to make their festivals happen. They got basically booted from Joshua Tree meditation retreat about 5-6 years ago because their festival was a fucking mess. Like way fucked up. Porta johns over flowing type of fucked.
Having more people than they were allowed at the retreat. Playing longer than stated. The property was trashed. And other random complaints. Terri was pissed, so were the people living behind the retreat but that’s typical. They hate all of the festivals. This was the first one IIRC. I remember thinking it was a bad idea to have a festival at a retreat. It’s not a ren faire, it’s a drug furled music fest but live and learn.
