Rothbury Music Festival Cancelled?!

On January 22nd, the Rothbury Music Festival, which for the past two years has brought the likes of The Dead, Bob Dylan, Dave Matthews Band, Widespread Panic, and others to Rothbury, MI over the Fourth of July holiday, has been canceled

In a statement released on the festival website last week, they claim that ““During the past three years, all of us involved with Rothbury have greatly appreciated the tremendous outpouring of support for the future of the festival. For 2010, we have had to make the tough decision to postpone our efforts. A contributing factor in our decision is that, due to various artists’ recording and touring schedules, we now believe that timing will not allow for us to assemble the cutting edge roster that everyone has come to expect from Rothbury. The result for this year is that we are not able to move forward with the integrity and high standards that we demand from ourselves and for the festival.”
