Rothbury 2009 is on ! ending speculation that it would not continue do to Double JJ Ranch being put in financial Jeapordy

ROTHBURY


Producer Jeremy Stein says "ROTHBURY is proud to host a community of conscious and involved fans who strive for a better future. We're also extremely grateful for the support of our local neighbors and the greater Michigan community. Together - we're raising the bar."

Look for artist line-up announcement and ticket on-sale information coming soon.

bold social and environmental mission continues to manifest in 2009, building on last year's topic of Climate Change and Clean Energy Solutions. Within the festival, look for expanded ROTHBURY Think Tank activities and even more cutting-edge festival implementation of ever-changing technologies in the quest for energy independence. Beyond the festival, via innovative community projects and local partnerships.

Indeed, such unparalleled community support and involvement led to huge successes for ROTHBURY's 2008 philanthropic programs and on-site environmental festival initiatives. Such initiatives included ROTHBURY's Music in Schools Program, ROTHBURY's Solar Schools Program, the ROTHBURY Food Drive and The Conscious Alliance Can Sculpture, and ROTHBURY's Greening and Sustainability Initiatives. For details on these 2008 programs visit www.rothburyfestival.com

pretty soon well have the 2009 ROTHBURY lineup announcement and ticket on-sale information, including ROTHBURY's Ticket Layaway Plan.

ROTHBURY is produced by Madison House Presents and AEG Live.

"Info on Rothbury"
Rothbury is on private property which dials down the Wannee situation, two people died last year! and still no major investigation. I did hear that the state Police were taking video of the grounds that they were going to use that video for "training" for future fests and how to deal with situations. similar to Live Oak. the police on the other hand at Rothbury seem much more moderate and rational about their use of aggressive force and when to act as the protectors they are really sworn to be.

The State police were all over the festival grounds. They drove up and down the camping area aisles with squad cars and this police outfitted golf cart, they walked all over the stage areas. 8 or 9 officers at the John Mayer set were standing in front of the stage right with the crowd. They pretty much had all access to the fest but they were never intimidating and quite frankly were never a bother at all.

Volunteering Info.
Ever wanted to go to a festival and not pay the exorbitant ticket fees? ever want to get an inside perspective on how a festival is run? managed? or perhaps you also may care about the earth and be interested in the cutting edge recycling tactics carried out by the green festival movement and organizations like clean vibes. well there are two options for you to get an inside view on these festivals, work with important people and get in free, maybe even get a shiny laminate! you can register with clean vibes and be part of the recycling team,or volunteer, with an organization like Shimon Presents, who runs the street team and volunteer program for many of the top festivals in the nation. the heads of the agencies who's names you will want to know are Seth with Shimon presents and Anna Borofsky with Clean Vibes.

In this internet age, the term "grass roots organizing" has taken on a much more of a powerful and cutting edge meaning. Through the internet as well as the effort of large numbers of like minded people, a tremendous amount can be accomplished. We have this in grass roots campaign organizing and Shimon Presents uses this toward creating a successful marketing strategy in the fast paced business of music. Shimon Presents uses the allure of the music industry as well as some free perks and incentives to motivate there massive database of dedicated fans. These fans put up posters, hand out flyers and inevitably complete successful marketing campaigns which has grown Shimon Presents client roster throughout the years. All through valuable "feet on the street" marketing with little cost to the company. The "street team" as they are reffed are fans of music who work diligently to promote these bands and document their efforts through photographing their work as they go along, Thus earning rewards ranging from CDS to passes to expensive week long festivals. In turn, Shimon Presents shows these pictures to clients as proof of their effectiveness. I have watched over the years as so many band sand event that Shimon Presents has been affiliated with has turned to gold and realize it is through their propper use of grass roots organizing as well as creative use of tools such as the internet, that they were able to accomplish so much. Shimon Presents has an extensive database where it tracks its volunteers, logs their work and also sends email update. Virtually all communication is done via email and through their online forms which allows them to manage large numbers of grass roots organizers and lightens the work load on the Shimon Presents office, by having the volunteers do much of the data entry themselves. In a world when innovative solutions are needed to adapt to the changing times Shimon Presents is a model of a successful marketing practice, that implements, grass roots organizing and internet web 2.0 technology.Line ups for Shimon Presents events include just about every major band popular right now, REM, The Beastie Boys, 311, The Roots, Snoop Dogg, MSTRKRFT, WideSpread Panic, Dave Mathews Band, Tori Amos ect. in addition to living legends such as James Brown, The Wailers and Taj Mahal.


Here is some information from Anna Borofsky head of the revolutionary recycling and sustainability project Clean Vibes, help her out this year she needs volunteers! and it is a worthwhile experience for college age post college age, people with wanderlust.

2009 marks the 10th anniversary of Clean Vibes as its own company! As we celebrate a decade of event recycling, we have already been very busy gearing up for what appears to be the busiest Clean Vibes season to date. Lots of new festivals are making a commitment to reduce their footprint and want to work with us to ensure that they are walking the sustainable walk, not just talking the talk.

Some very exciting news for our 10th year as well – we have just launched our brand new and long overdue website!!! The site has been completely redesigned and has a long overdue update to all of the content of the site. So head on over to cleanvibes.com and check it out! Clean Vibes has come a long way in the last 10 years, and it is pretty amazing to see just how many events we have worked, and what an enormous impact our recycling efforts at all of these events have had on the Earth. Every single one of you that has worked or volunteered with us before should take great pride in all that the website, and the company as a whole, represents. We can’t wait to continue to help keep the scene clean and spread the clean vibe in 2009!

All that being said, we are now accepting applications for the 2009 season. The new applications can be downloaded from our website at:
