I went to this last year and it's absolutely great. The venue is extremely small though, it's in a hip coffee house called Kavarna in a cool neighborhood and there's only room there for a few dozen people. There's free wireless and everyone is friendly and you can be interactive, in a community based music sense. Most of the acts are superb and you can often talk gear afterwards with the acts. Coffee and food there is excellent, I recommend buying a pass for the whole event and adding on an extra day to check out the many fine restaurants in the Atlanta area.
