Not that we needed another multi-day festival here in the US, but this one actually has some elements that are very cool. For starters, it takes place at the Double JJ Ranch in Rothbury, MI, giving attendees a chance to explore trails, forests, fields, lakes, beachfronts, and even has on-site lodging, bars and eateries. Nice, right?
Taking place over the July 4th weekend, Rothbury features a mighty diverse lineup, appealing to quite a broad range of music fans. You can get your jam on with Widespread Panic, relive your younger days with 311 and Primus, throw ya hands in tha air with Snoop Dogg, and experience up and coming artists such as Dead Confederate.
