Rothbury is another of the slew of jam band heavy fests. This one takes place out in the wilds of west Michigan over the Independence Day weekend. Beginning in 2008, Rothbury had two goes before going on hiatus in 2010. Rothbury is notable for being one of the greenest festivals in the country and making sustainability a main aspect of the festival.
Both years that Rothbury existed, Ice Cream Man was in attendance. The first year, Crash brought a crew out in Bessita. In 2009, Ice Cream Man himself joined the party with Newt. It was muddy but fun.
