Influences
Amberland began in the backyard of PGroove super friend and fan, Mark Day. His property, located just outside of downtown Jefferson, GA was called Amberland and played host to a small, intimate, Memorial Day weekend cook out. It was here that the first Amberland took place with Perpetual Groove and about 35 or so other people. The event has continued to grow each year with new locations and new faces. Amberland is NOT a music festival - Amberland is a social, a state of mind, a chance for friends to meet, a chance to relax, and a chance to connect with Perpetual Groove.
You are cordially invited to attend Amberland 2008! Fans and friends, new and old, are invited to come experience the annual Perpetual Groove ritual known as Amberland this Memorial Day Weekend, at Cherokee Farms in Lafayette, GA. We're just a stone's throw North of Atlanta on I-75 and just South of Chattanooga - somewhere in the middle, on a beautiful piece of rolling property where once again we will come together to close out the spring and kick off the summer.
Amberland is a Perpetual Groove tradition, a giant ice cream social, an excuse to all get together under the stars, and a time to celebrate this fantastic community that has developed and evolved around the band over the past seven years. It's a weekend marathon of fun, sun, great friends, and the perfect summer soundtrack of music from your favorite band. In a time that continues to be inundated with events that force you to sprint from stage to stage, we offer ample time for relaxation and socializing for those in attendance. Often times its the notes that aren't played that provide for some of the most timeless memories and moments, onstage and off.
Tickets will be sold in tiered allotments, and as each allotment sells out, that price tier will close. Buying early will save you big bucks, so lock in your ticket as early as possible to secure the best deal. Ticket prices include early Friday admission, car camping, six sets from Perpetual Groove, the annual Sunday morning Brockfest, and much more. Tickets will go on sale February 19th, at 12:00PM EST through Perpetual Groove's online ticketing site under the "tour" tab of the official band website, http://www.pgroove.com. Ticket prices are as follows:
Early Bird Special 1 - $65.00
Early Bird Special 2 - $75.00
Early Bird Special 3 - $85.00
Early Bird Special 4 - $95.00
Day of Show Weekend Pass - $105.00
There will be no RV passes sold this year, but you are welcome to bring an RV, camper, or tow behind trailer. You will be directed to a specific camping area, so as to not disturb the primitive camping areas. Days passes will be sold only for Sunday at a cost of $50.00, there are no Saturday-only passes. Amberland is a no re-entry event, so please come prepared for the weekend. We will not have ATMs or credit card machines on site this year, so please come prepared with plenty of cash for vending and basic supplies that will be made available at the general store. Jeff Wood of Drowning Creek Studios will once again be producing another beautiful limited edition print to commemorate the event and for those that purchase the print, you will have the opportunity to have it signed by the band.
We're extremely excited to have the opportunity to once again host the best fans around for another memorable weekend. Please spread the word, tell your friends, bring your friends, make new friends and bring them too - your words are our best promotional tool! Keep checking back to http://www.pgroove.com or the Amberland MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/pgamberland) for more information in the next two weeks, including travel directions, special theme night announcements, and more general details! We've also opened a special Amberland forum on the band's official online community message forum, Talking In Place. You must be a member of the forum to view and post, so if you have any questions or just want to chat more about the event, then please sign up and join the group!
We can't wait to see you again this year!
