People are whining about the Gentlemen of the Road festival on Facebook…

Regardless of your affinity (or lack thereof) towards Mumford and Sons, Alabama Shakes, and Edward Sharpe, you have to admit The Gentlemen of the Road Stopover in Guthrie is a freakin' cool thing to happen in Oklahoma. It's going to generate some serious cash for a historic Oklahoma town that peaked in 1911 and seems like an idyllic weekend for the young and adventurous hipsters who want to think they are young and adventurous, right?

Well...yes and no. Lately, a few red flags have come up that have many people worried about the logistics of the festival. I'm not even talking about security, police forces, or Oklahoma's strict and silly marijuana laws. It seems most of the cyber rioting stems from festival and campsite rules.
