From the Gathering of the vibes website / Terraopin Message Board:
"Hope all have stayed warm and listened to some amazing music during these cold winter months. It’s clear the “VibeTribe” wants to know what’s going on with Vibes 2004. The honest answer is, we’re doing everything we can to make it happen.
As many of you know, last summer we took quite the financial hit with our Summit on the Hudson Music Festival. An enormous amount of rain fell and other than some stellar performances by Arlo Guthrie, Little Feat, Steve Kimock, Chuck Berry and our friend Reid Genauer, the weekend was pretty much a complete and total loss. So we’re restructuring, reassessing our collective vision in hopes to keep the Vibes alive in 2004.
If we’re able to make this a reality, and we’ll know within the next few weeks, The Vibes will be 4th of July weekend once again at the Indian Lookout County Club. Many people need to put in for time off work so I hope this info helps. Again, no promises.
So what we’re thinking about for Vibes 2004, is to scale it back in size and scope…getting back to our grassroots days. When we first started out, the Vibes was all about a group of friends throwing a party for a few thousand of our closest friends & family. Regaining that “Vibe” is our goal for 2004. But I’m getting ahead of myself…we’re not there yet!
All I know for certain right now is that all of us have been absolutely blessed with the opportunity to host the Vibes and spend quality time with so many of you over the years. Community brought together through music…there is no equal.
So that’s where it stands today, on the 5th day of March, the year 2004. I can’t begin to thank you enough for your overwhelming support. The Vibes has been one unprecedented experience so far; a living and breathing entity, an experience we all take part in, year after passing year. With positive karma and a proper star alignment, we’re bound to cover just a little more ground. Please stay in touch!
