The first three editions of the festival were held at the Oak Canyon Ranch in Irvine, California, and the most recent edition was held at the Brookside Golf Course. The festival was named after the song "This Ain't No Picnic" by the San Pedro band The Minutemen off their aclaimed 1984 album Double Nickels on The Dime.
