Several additional artists have been confirmed for the 10th Annual Gathering of the Vibes which will return to Indian Lookout Country Club in Pattersonville, NY on August 12-14. Given that the fact that the event began as a celebration of the music of the Grateful Dead it is fitting that Bob Weir will return with his band RatDog (the group performed in 2000). Meanwhile, the ‘Tribute to Jerry Garcia and the Music of the Grateful Dead’ now will feature Dark Star Orchestra, with many guests including Peter Rowan, David Nelson, Donna Jean Godchaux-McKay, Melvin Seals, Martin Fierro, Keller Williams, Tom Constanten and many others pledged as well.

In addition, John Scofield, will appear with Medeksi Martin & Wood. The four musicians first collaborated on Scos celebrated A Go Go disc and toured briefly in the wake the wake of its 1998 release. However, it now has been some time since they joined forces for an extended live set.
