WAKARUSA After five years outside of Lawrence, Kan., the annual music and camping festival Wakarusa decamped for Mulberry Mountain, just north of Ozark, in June. Somewhere north of 10,000 hippies and hippy-lovers climbed the mount to see bands like the Black Crowes, Lucero, Sly and Robbie and STS9. It looks like the festival’s on Mulberry Mountain to stay. Tickets for Waka 2010 are already on sale.
