Trinumeral Music & Arts Festival

This year the festival is in tally which is pretty cool, another Glorida festival! Unfortunately I'm not going

The Trinumeral is a yearly Music & Arts Festival held on the date in which the day, month, and year align in an auspicious numeric sameness. The festival began on January 1, 2001: 01.01.01 and has expanded to become a multidisciplinary event held every year on the synchronized dates. Past Trinumeral Events have taken place in Atlanta, Miami, Charlotte and Asheville. This year the multi-venue event has grown to encompass five days of festivities, kicking off on Wednesday, 9*9*9 with The Official Trinumeral 9*9*9 Launch Party at the Orange Peel in Downtown Asheville, NC, hailed by Rolling Stone as one of the top five venues in the country. The rest of the weekend will be staged at the majestic Deerfields Music Park, just twenty minutes south of Asheville in Horse Shoe, NC. Trinumeral is the only major music event this summer at Deerfields, which is known as the premier outdoor music venue in the Southeast US, and is truly one of the most pristine and gorgeous concert locations in the country. The initial line-up is below, with more artists TBA soon. Please stay tuned to the official festival website for updated news on the festival, the full line up, artist additions, directions, ticket info and more. Tickets are now available at www.trinumeral.com. The first 9*9*9 pre-sale ticket buyers will receive a free pass to the launch party at The Orange Peel (w/ very special performance to be announced soon!). Don't miss the biggest party in the south at the best outdoor venue in the east. Last year's festival was a truly epic event and this year is promising to be even more legendary! Also check out the Bear Creek Festival, Also in Florida. This is a great year to make up for no Langerado.

Nitrous Mafia Vibes Murder- Altamont 2009-The Death of the Festival

After some "in field" investigation at the u melt show this past weekend this sums up what i see as the truth, these people aren't really as organized as we thought and most are just dudes trying to make a buck. the guy i met was nice and just trying to support his family, based out of NJ. The NY gas people are NOT the Philly people, they are old Dead Heads with a bunch of college buddies that they pay off in gas to hang out and help out. They are NOT violent, Not organized (beyond 5-6) people per crew. nothing like this huge conspiracy crap that was mentioned on the Headcount blog interview with the security. They are not making huge bank, its just fun to make to make things into these mythic legends. Maybe some people from Philly are violent, but they act alone. You can usually spot the aggro sketchballs from a mile away.


I love how hippies think everything is so organized...Nitrous mafia, The Family, Hippy mafia...whatever you call it.

People know who they know, and work with folks they can trust...to think there is any more sinister organization to the whole thing (the suggestion that this thread makes) is very funny

I guaruntee ther is more "organization" to your local weed scene/chain than there is to all the randoms that have been bringing tanks on tour through the years.

Just my $.02
Please contact Detective John Burke or Detective Lynn Gorman at 203-581-5233 or 203-581-5228. We are so very sorry about your friend. Thank you for your assistance.

I have been writing for years about why Indian Lookout Country Club Is great because they choose a few laws to enforce and do it well, one of which is NO NITROUS, the bikers do a WAY better job at this than the cops and therefore keep the shady, greedy NO2 mafia out. These people are way shadier then anyone because the nature of their business, HUGE profit and need to be extra shady while "dealing." Mostly from Philly these ultra sketch balls are pulling 50k a show, enough to pay off local authorities, they are getting way out of hand and now exist only to prey on the scene. When I saw the balloons going crazy right outside MSG this spring during the Dead i thought it was funny. Now I am starting to see there is a violent side that has no place in this subculture of pacifism. scroll down and read shit to know whats going on. Buy your own tank and don't let these fucks exhort you for being ont their "turf." There is no room for mafia bullshit in jamband music. We need the Angels back.
Meanwhile while we get organized join this group.

Rock The Earth

On September 8, a federal judge blocked the Army's plans to greatly increase its use of the existing Piñon Canyon Maneuver Site (PCMS). Ruling that the Army did not fully comply with federal environmental assessment law before it issued its 2007 decision for expanded use of the site, Senior U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch set aside the Army's decision authorizing new facilities and year-round training at the 238,000-acre site northeast of Trinidad, Colorado.

Matsch's ruling seemingly means that the Army will need to develop a new environmental impact statement (EIS), before it may resurrect its plans. The ruling was a victory for Rock the Earth, who has been educating and activating the public on the issue for nearly two years along with Not One More Acre!, a group of property owners in Southeastern Colorado, and preservationists and others, all who sued the Army regarding the inadequacy of the impact statement.

The Army wants to significantly increase its use of the site to accommodate new weapons, tactics and an influx of soldiers relocated to Fort Carson from Korea and elsewhere. Meanwhile, the PCMS is home to many imperiled wildlife species, including the bald eagle, burrowing owl, mountain plover, ferruginous hawk, swift fox, flathead chub, plains leopard frog, triploid checkered whiptail, Texas blind snake, Texas horned lizard, yellow-billed cuckoo, American peregrine falcon, long-billed curlew, massasauga, greater sandhill crane, Townsend’s big-eared bat and Botta’s pocket gopher, each designated as a “Species of Concern” by the Colorado Division of Wildlife. This area also contains world-class archaeological and paleontological sites, including the largest dinosaur footprints in North America.

The judge, in an 18-page decision, wrote that the Army's training requirements at Fort Carson "cannot be met" at the existing site, "even if use of that facility is unrestricted." The judge concluded the Army's impact statement "does not adequately assess the impact on the environment of the increase in intensity and duration of training operations" at the site. Judge Matsch wrote that the Army's reliance on the statement makes its decision to increase use of the site "an arbitrary and capricious action, an abuse of discretion, and a decision not in accordance with NEPA [National Environmental Policy Act]." "A major flaw of the EIS is that it contains only vague descriptions of the anticipated increase in use," the judge wrote. He quoted the statement as saying that training "may or may not be conducted 52 weeks a year.

CoSM Symbiosis

Dear Friends,

Preparing for the Symbiosis festival to be held in Yosemite, California this weekend, we were considering the concept of symbiosis and learned about the gall wasp. This cousin to a bee lays its eggs on a naked leaf, prey to wind, rain and insect predators. The tree graciously protects the wasp egg by growing a womb to surround each individual ova. The bulging ball or wart on the tree's leaf signals the presence of a developing gall wasp. When the egg is fully grown, the hatchling eats its way out of the protective shell provided by the tree. What could motivate a tree to host a gall wasp? According to Rudolph Steiner's amazing book "Bees," European farmers have always known that trees hosting gall wasps bear fruit that is qualitatively sweeter than those trees that have not been gall wasp hosts. Farmers bring wasps to their fruit bearing trees in order to have the sweetest fruit. The wasp, the tree and the farmer are all in a symbiotic relationship.



Symbiosis is an opportunity to see the compassionate oneness manifesting through the nature field. Symbiosis is an everyday miracle proving that interdependence is a strategy for evolution. Evolution flourishes both through competition -- survival of the fittest, and symbiosis -- a close and often long-term relationship between species. Each species, from single celled organisms to primates, strive to be the best they can be, while at the same time existing in direct interdependence with many other life forms and truly in relationship to all.
The diminishment of certain species, like bees and frogs, indicates a frightening imbalance in our natural world. Awareness of this breakdown has led to an upsurge in bee keeping worldwide. A CoSM friend has promised to train us to keep bees as early as next spring. As our species consciously evolves, the study of symbiosis as a fundamental law of nature provides a key to a sustainable future.

Weeks ago in our message, we shared documentation of frogs living in the CoSM reflecting pond. These amphibians are noticeably "in the moment" and observant of human visitors. The Mission of Art class at CoSM last weekend checked in on the frogs, who immediately hopped out to greet us, and members of the two species stared intently at one another. CoSM frogs appear to be gifted meditators, gurus on the principals of stillness and patience.

With love,


Allyson and Alex Grey

Phish Shoundcheck Hartford

Even though I missed this show attending trying to clear up something about a name at the Warlocks Concert, I found out via Live Phish that they are making available, a soundcheck from the Harford CT show. It's Trey on bass jamming with, the song is hysterical, sounds like the lyrics were made up on the spot. A dream about a party on the lamp post, classic stupid dada Phish lyrics. It also shows off some crude yet passable bass playing skills by trey, the bass line actually kind of evolves and grows on you though and he sings really well with it.
