www.americanradiohistory.com www.americanradiohistory.com The Disco Biscuits Liked To Play Festivals, So They Made Their Own. Now They Run It- Come Hell And High Water By Evie Nagy Photographs By Rich Krissel

The night of Monday, July 13, Jonathan Fordin couldn't sleep. It was three days until Camp Bisco -the annual three -day music festival hosted by jam band scene stalwarts the Disco Bis- cuits -and Fordin's Meatcamp Productions was almost $750,000 behind where it needed to be for its biggest event of the year. "I was lying in bed thinking, 'This might be it,' " he says. " This whole thing might be over a week from now.' " MCP took a big risk on this year's Camp Bisco, the eighth for the band and the fifth for the company, increasing total expenses 30% from last year to $1.4 million and upping the talent budget 40% to $650,000. Fordin and his business partner Brett Keber started with a $225,000 budget when they took over the event in 2005, steadily increasing it every year to attract more people and bigger talent. "What we've tried to do is build this brand that's almost bigger than the band itself, to lay the grounds for the band to grow with it," Fordin says. So far it had been working, with revenue, profits and attendance growing by 20% or more every year, and scoring major artists like Snoop Dogg in 2008 and and Damian this year. But as the week went on, and ticket sales remained slow in a down economy, Fordin and Keber thought attendance might barely reach last year's levels. Then on Thursday, festival day one, the rain came.

JAM -PACKED As Camp Biscó s founders, hosts and six -set headliners, the Disco Biscuits -drummer Allen Aucoin, bassist Marc Brownstein, guitarist /MIDI keyboardist Jon Gutwillig and keyboardist Aron Magner -are the festival's biggest draw. But the addition of electronic and hip -hop acts helped expand the event beyond the band's hardcore fans and exposed these other artists to the committed, camp -out community that defines the jam band scene. As the festival's owners, the Biscuits are paid a guarantee by MCP. Then, after the promot- ers meet their costs, profits are shared between MCP and the Biscuits in a partnership arrange- ment. Even before the final numbers were in for this year's event, Brownstein estimated that the single Camp Bisco weekend would account for at least 8% of his band's annual gross. Camp Bisco began in 1999 "out of necessity," Brownstein says. "When the Biscuits started as a young Philadelphia band in the '90s, we were in the festival circuit, and like any young band we started playing at noon. We knew within a year or two that we weren't the noontime band anymore, that our fan base had outgrown that, but the promoters still didn't necessarily believe it." Brownstein says the last straw came at the 1997 All Good Festival in Brandywine, Md., when the Biscuits played at noon to a field of 1,500 people, which promptly emptied when the next band arrived. "That was the first time we saw that there was a differential between the way we were being treated by the industry and the reality of what our band was," he says. "When you can't seem to crack through but you know that you have something special in terms of a commu- nity, the only thing you can really do is do things on your own. We were fans of the Grateful Dead and Phish, and they had control of everything- nothing mattered to them except them and their fans; no one was calling the shots except for [Phish frontman] Trey [Anastasio]. And we knew that model was going to be good for us because we played in that same style, we didn't have pop songs, we weren't the best singers back then, but that's not what people were coming for. They were coming for the interaction and the improvisation." In 1998, the band held a small festival in western Pennsylvania called Melstock, and from that the idea for a multiday camp -out was born. The band hired its own production and secu- rity teams for the first Camp Bisco in 1999, which drew about 800 people for "unknown and ex- tremely affordable bands," Brownstein says. All Good promoter Tim Walther pitched in for Camp Biscos II and III in 2000 and 2002, which drew 1,600 and 2,600 fans, respectively. By then, Phish had run several festivals, starting in 1996 with the Clifford Ball in Plattsburgh, N.Y. And although the Biscuits' albums had only sold 21,000 copies by that point, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the group's destination events became the foundation of its business. Even so, Camp Bisco was "a huge undertaking, a full -time job in itself," Brownstein says, and the band put the festival on hold for the following two years.

BISCO INFERNO That full -time job is now well -known to Fordin and Keber. By the time the promoters were push- ing vans out of ankle-deep mud in the middle of the night on July 17, they looked at each other and questioned whether this was really what they wanted to be doing with their lives. Thursday afternoon's thunderstorm already forced a set cancellation, and 12 straight hours of torrential rain on Friday turned the clay of Indian Lookout Country Club in Mariaville, N.Y., into a 200 -acre tar pit. And yet still, somehow, the numbers were looking up. "The storm kept a lot of people from coming on Thursday this year -but then Friday they just didn't stop coming, from 7 a.m. to 5 a.m, through the worst rain I've ever seen as a festival promoter," Keber says. Moreover, the fans weren't huddling in their tents. "It was amazing -they stood at that stage and waited for Nas and Damian, who had wanted to cancel, for an hour -and-a -half in the pour- ing rain. Then they didn't leave for the Biscuits' set or anything," Fordin says. "It really shows Hippy hippy shake (clockwise from how dedicated our fan base is," Keber adds.

"Most festivals deal with a band and they're gone. We deal with this band every year for three days. We have to build an RV headquarters for them. We have Puddle of mud: Camp Bisco to listen to all they want, and there's four different band mem- bers and they never agree and they all call me separately -and it starts in November and goes through July." A big change to the dynamic occurred this year when the Biscuits signed with Red Light Management, which repre- sents dozens of acts including Band, Ala - nis Morissette, Phish and the Decemberists. "Their new management has helped connect the dots that the band could not connect when they didn't have a manager," Fordin says. "The four of them need to worry about playing music and coming together; someone else needs to worry about making the decisions." Still, the added personnel didn't necessarily always help Fordin's and Keber's stress levels. "For the past five days, all day long, I would get text messages from management, saying, 'What are the counts? How many tickets have we sold ?' " Fordin says. "I would respond back, 'I get my counts at 10 a.m. If I look at them before that, I will not sleep.

www.americanradiohistory.com JAMMED IN The Next Bands On The Scene's Shifting, Swirling Horizon

As in other subcultures, jam bands grow in traditional ways that aren't always obvious to outsiders. Many start by playing shows on campus and making the rounds of university pubs before graduating to opening slots at summer festivals. As they find an audience, they often play nontraditional venues like cruise ships and Jamaican resorts. When they do succeed, their drawing power rarely correlates to sales: EOTO, for ex- ample, has sold fewer than 1,000 copies of each of its albums, according to Nielsen SoundScan, yet is still booked at 500- capacity clubs and well -known festivals. With all due respect to a scene that's both profitable and beloved by fans, most jam bands don't exactly exude cool. But the scene is refreshingly open to anyone, regardless of looks or age. And although acts offer more cred on the festival circuit, sources say that jam bands bring in more fans -and hence more dollars. Here are five up- and -coming jams bands that could draw audiences to the festivals of tomorrow.
