I don't think NRPS is going to be there for Grateful Fest 2017 as there are still no tour / show dates listed on their website.
If they aren't going to be there NLQP needs to take the band name off of the ads / bill. NLQP isn't as cool as it used to be...long story, but the owner was basically threatened by the local county officials 4-5 years ago to let them onsite to do their jobs....or he could go the way of Camp Zoe. Enough said...the owner let them onsite to do their jobs. The owner also has to deal with the local county Health Dept. quite a bit as they handle all camping regulations.
NLQP is still an awesome, beautiful park...do not get me wrong. It's just not as "wild" as it used to be. Still a great venue to camp at and catch a fest at. We used to like to go & sit & hang on the beach under our beach umbrella during the day. The beach is right next to the main music stage so you can hear all of the tunes while on the beach. The beach is also a favorite hang at night for fans being right next to the stage.
The man who was the main organizer of the failed Fyre Festival in the Bahamas earlier this year has been arrested by authorities and charged with wire fraud for allegedly bilking investors in his company, Fyre Media, which promoted the event.
Billy McFarland was arrested by federal agents at his Manhattan home on Friday.
The New York Times writes:
"A criminal complaint unsealed on Friday detailed the case, which relies heavily on misrepresentations of financial information to people who invested in Fyre Media — whose main business was a website that let people book celebrities for special events — and a subsidiary, Fyre Festival LLC.
"According to the complaint, sworn to by Brandon Racz, a special agent with the F.B.I., at least two people invested about $1.2 million in the two companies, and in communications with these investors in 2016 and 2017, Mr. McFarland repeatedly overstated Fyre Media's revenue from bookings and his own wealth."
In a statement released by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, Acting Manhattan U.S. Attorney Joon Kim said: "As alleged, William McFarland promised a 'life changing' music festival but in actuality delivered a disaster. McFarland allegedly presented fake documents to induce investors to put over a million dollars into his company and the fiasco called the Fyre Festival. Thanks to the investigative efforts of the FBI, McFarland will now have to answer for his crimes."
NPR's Laurel Wamsley wrote in April: "In a promo video posted in January full of frolicking models, the Fyre Festival promised (in seemingly random order) 'the best in food, art, music and adventure / once owned by Pablo Escobar / on the boundaries of the impossible / Fyre is an experience and festival / A quest / to push beyond those boundaries.'"
Soon after, the festival co-organizers, McFarland and rapper Ja Rule, were hit with a $100 million suit filed by a disgruntled festival-goer.
Woz, WTF? He surely will not be at this event, but I am confident he will be back on stage. And yes, this is insiders info. He is playing guitar, just has to beat this cancer.
I live 25 minutes from this venue. The local county Health Dept. officials are hassling the NLQP owner this season. Word is that NLQP is hoping for a big turnout for this weekend's Slighly Stoopid fest. https://ticketquarry.com/event/slightly-stoopid-at-the-quarry/
Nothing is scheduled during the entire month of August which is very unusual.
Seems like Bears' Picnic is describing NRPS as "Confirmed" for this Summer.
They have always put on a legit festival the times I've attended; promoted various 12/31/xx NRPS shows as well. Nice bunch of folks, and many Zoners will attest to having good experiences with their various affairs over the years. I've never had any complaints; always a top-notch small-to-medium Musical gathering.
From the Bears' Picnic website:
"...12th Annual Bears Picnic Family Reunion will be back at Sunsational Family Campround in Millmont, PA. A gorgeous 45+ acre campground along Penns Creek. Swimming holes, great fishing, kayaking, bathrooms, showers, playground, swimming pool, community fire, craft & food vendors, workshops, children activities, movies, fire spinners & more! Music goes to 4am
2017 Confirmed Artists:
New Riders of the Purple Sage
Tom Hamilton's American Babies
Midnight North (feat. Grahame Lesh)
Strung Like a Horse
Scott Pemberton Band
David Gans
Gatos Blancos
Willie Jack & the Northern Light
Launch Pad
Still Hand String Band
Moonlicker
Reverend Jefferson
Mountain Ride
Dr Slothclaw
Kind Dubs
Dynamic Merger
Cousin Earth
& many more to be announced shortly!..."
Well, just because a gig is "confirmed" doesn't mean it will take place - it can always be canceled later, but I'm hoping for David's triumphant return.

Looked at the 'ticketquarry' official site. (seen in above comment)
A few weeks before the advertised date they don't have a lot of Bands advertised -- just 'Riders Of The Purple Sage' and 'David Gans'...
Hope that they get it more together and have a Nice Time.
