NEWS
MOE.DOWN 11 ANNOUNCED

Posted: March 22nd, 2010

After a successful and enjoyable decade in Turin, moe.down opts for a change of scenery: Gelston Castle Estate in Mohawk, NY. Or perhaps we should say...moe.hawk?

First Roosevelt, then Rostropovich. Now moe. will bring crowds over Labor Day weekend to the 330-acre Central New York site, which boasts breath-taking views of the Mohawk Valley and an impressive history. Majestic ruins of the 1833 castle still stand, along with the 8,300 square foot mansion built by cellist and humanitarian Mstislav "Maestro" Rostropovich, which now operates on windpower. Often called "Nature's Palace", the estate was once the place where the Nation's most historic environmental advocate, President Theodore Roosevelt, spent his childhood summers, and is now the home of Green Leadership Institute. It is 20 minutes from Utica, NY.

As moe. fans know, the moe.down festival is like, as Al Schnier once described, 'a big family picnic'. The band members revel in surrounding themselves with friends, family and great music and pride themselves on giving their fans a memorable and enjoyable festival experience. Thousands travel each Labor Day weekend to gather for this down-home pilgrimage, and for many, plans for the next moe.down begin during the journey home from the last one.

With a new festival site comes new details. moe. and the organization realize that fans are eager for information, and will provide travel, accommodation and other important info soon. The festival will continue its tradition of hosting ample vending, a Kids' tent and various charitable causes, as well as presenting an unprecedented lineup of talented artists whose music span a wide variety of genres. We hope to see you all up in moe.hawk for moe.down!


A limited amount of $90 Early Bird tickets will go on sale 4/1.

Well assuming you are correct about them moving Moe.down then you def. are correct because that is where Furthur has themself scheduled on the 3rd. If this is true all it does is re-affirms to me how lame gathering of the vibes has gotten in booking bands. How can they let Nateva, All Good AND Moe.down get Furthur and not them?!! How? because they drag their freakin feet all year long and didnt sign them in time.

Wait, why do you think Furthur is playing at moe.down?

Check the very first post again. He was talking about Furthur playing at the same place that moe.down will be on July 3rd.

Na Further aint playing at moe.down this year. I think he got a little confused.Further and moe both are playing at Gelston Castle, not together. Further on July 3rd and moe.down laborday weekend. Who knows though Further could be a possibility for moe.down. Anybody could be on that lineup. The Gelston Castle estate is real nice though, def a step up for moe fans.

oh and yeah, moe.down is gunna be awesome! I love how they really cleaned up the nitrous scene last year because the year before that was just dumb! ...balloons littered all over the place....not a pretty sight

Yeah man tell me about it. We for some reason, not thinking about the repercussions, landed ourselves camped right in the middle of shakedown. It was madness and it killed our experience that year. We've gone the past 4 years and 08 was out of control with nitrous. They were bringing the majority of it in by trekin through the mountains for miles. The very next year it just came to a sudden stop, the new security had it on lock. This years festival will be sort of a new fest with the new location at Gelston Castle.
