Say what you will about moe. — and most people take every opportunity to do so — but the self-described “indie-jam rockers” know how to throw a fine festival for their fans. The September moe.down in Turin NY and the March snoe.down in Lake Placid are consistently regarded as two of the best weekends of music in the Northeast each and every year.

But this year’s festival ain’t happening. The band posted this unfortunate message on its website some time this weekend:
Due to extensive and on-going construction up in Lake Placid, we regret to announce that there will not be a snoe.down festival held in 2008. Never fear, we are already cooking up ideas for a rockin’ snoe.down in 2009 and will keep you informed!
I’m not sure it’s possible to look forward to a moe. show that’s 18 months away, but at least most fans can rest assured the event will be back in 2009. By then the jamband scene will be totally dead but, moe. will survive because they’re indie-jam rockers. See, hybrids really are the future.
