Terrastock

Hello, and welcome to the TERRASTOCK homepage, home to the series of festivals known collectively as.... uhhh... TERRASTOCK.

To date, there have been fourTerrastock festivals, with a fifth currently in the planning stages. The first took place in Providence, Rhode Island, in April of 1997; the second in San Francisco, California, in April of 1998; the third in London, England, in August of 1999; and the fourth in Seattle, Washington, in November of 2000. The fifth will take place in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in October of 2002.

frog Each Terrastock builds on the successes of the previous ones. The events are conceived in a spirit of peace, love and co-operation in order to celebrate the music championed by the long-running magazine The Ptolemaic Terrascope.

Terrastock is not an indie-rock A&R feeding frenzy. Bands and artists are there at the personal invitation of the organisers because we love their music and they love the way we do things. It's simply about the music, and about the whole Terrastock spirit. If you were there at a Terrastock, you'll know what we mean.
