Oxford County Fairgrounds minus the party
Every summer my cousins would hold incredible gatherings in a big meadow on their property in Pennsylvania. The afternoon consisted of drinking beer from cold kegs of Yuengling, throwing disk, kickin’ the sack and groovin’ down to all the funky sounds of 90’s jam bands.
A bunch of friends got together and handcrafted a beautiful post and beam rustic stage on one end of the meadow and bands like Grinch and Fat Mama would jam to intimate crowds that often included the folks involved with Phish.
The times were epic. This was a small, classic community music festival full of all the stuff big festivals strive for. A lot of folks have figured out that you can make quite a bit of money from these things. Can anyone say, Bonnaroo?
Small, backyard style festivals are nothing new, and every summer all over the world, meadows in small towns still fill up with beat-up VW buses, home-made stages, poorly tapped kegs, flower dresses, frisbees, dangerous bonfires and dancing dirty feet. It’s just that some of these small backyard shin-digs decide they want lot’s of people they don’t know to show up and pay big bucks to be there.
The Nateva Music and Camping Festival is yet another rookie festival to pencil into your calendar. It is being held in Oxford, Maine July 2nd, 3rd, 4th and is one of the newer fests to hit the North American musical landscape.
This toddler of a fest seemingly wants to grow up quickly bringing in headlining acts such as Further, The Flaming Lips, Moe, The Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi Band, Moonalice, Lotus, Keller Willams and Zappa Plays Zappa.
It looks like no matter how many actually show up, it will be a rocking time and a great way to spend the 4th of July. According to the Nateva Music and Camping Festival website, “No, this is not the same location as the July 2nd and 3rd 1988 Dead Shows. They performed 3 miles down the road at the Oxford Plains Speedway. This is a much sweeter spot, and not nearly as muddy.”
Purchase tickets and learn more at the official Nateva Festival Website.

Hi – very good web site you have established. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to issue a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically pleasing. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed playing with information processing systems and am attempting to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
Hey… It looks like there’s a problem with the layout of the page. For some reason the text block is running into the edge. I don’t know if it’s just me or are others reporting the same thing? Just wanted to let you know in case you’ve been updating the site. Thanks!
