They also host the annual festival moe.down at Snow Ridge Ski Area in Turin, NY. Started in 2000, the festival runs for three days and occurs every Labor Day weekend. The festival has attracted a wide variety of musical talent. Acts range from newer bands just emerging onto the scene (such as Tea Leaf Green, Nellie McKay and Raq) to big name acts and jam rock staples, such as Les Claypool, Blues Traveler, and Mike Gordon (of Phish fame); to pop rock icons, such as Leo Kottke, The Flaming Lips, The Violent Femmes; and most recently, Perry Farrell. Each year, the amount of moe.down attendees has steadily increased. moe.down I attracted around 3,000 people while moe.down VI in 2005, had attracted close to 7,000.
During an interview, guitarist Al Schnier was asked to describe moe. for those who have never heard their music: "It's an amalgamation of a wide variety of the history of rock, all regurgitated and recycled through the eyes, ears, hands, whatever of the guys in our band and all of that with a sense of adventure, a sense of humor, also a constant desire to push the envelope. All in this arena of taking chances, improvising live, and making things up on the spot."

Timmy Tucker
by moe.
Timmy tucker was a friend of mine
He came from a long line of geeks
His papa was a horseshoe throwin' man
He was a horseshoe throwin' freak
His mama's name was annabelle
And his daddy's name was zeek
But he could throw them horseshoes man
He was a horseshoe throwin' freak
Timmy was a different sort
He wasn't like his dad or mom
They wanted him to grow up
Just like his older brother tom
Timmy'd get so close, so close
So close, but not very long
Couldn't even score a point
In hand grenades or atom bombs
Alone and tired he walked the streets
Of downtown exeter
With a pocket full of rusted change
A transcendence did occur
Metaphysical reckoning of his purpose did infer
He should huff himself the short trek down to the army recruiter
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Timmy finally freed himself
From the onus he called dad
He'd let the army teach him a trade
Surveying was his bag
Sergeant goat lips was an evil man
Cause his wife was a wretched hag
Timmy blinked and opened his eyes
He was washing pots
With an army rag
Our hero's life turned olive drab
He was cast into a four year hell
Livin' in barracks with forty men
His loins did ever swell
Timmy took a walk outside
Lordy, lordy, lord he fell
A rock was tossed into his retina
His eye was an empty shell
With a check and a discharge
He just hopped on the nearest bus
Went down to Tijuana
Got a nasty case of pus
Metaphysical reckoning of his purpose did infer
He should huff himself the short trek down to the army recruiter
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
(part of first verse repeated)
Timmy tucker was a friend of mine
He came from a long line of geeks
His papa was a horseshoe throwin' man
He was a horseshoe throwin' freak
Metaphysical reckoning of his purpose did infer
He should huff himself the short trek down to the army recruiter
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
Poor, poor, Timmy tucker
