Some info and tips to have the most fun!
With only about two weeks to go, we're putting the final touches on what is going to be an AWESOME festival! We've got some information, tips, and ideas about some ways to prepare for the festival, and to give you some clues as to some of the other great stuff we're going to have on site!
The ferry is, BY FAR, the easiest and quickest way to get to the festival! It's just a short ride away from NYC, and the trip is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. No need to worry about traffic or gas or crowded trains - one quick ride on the ferry brings you right to the park! Buy your tickets in advance and save cash!
Just announced! Thanks to a release of tickets by the record companies, some additional Saturday single day tickets are now available! Get them now before they're gone! Visit Ticketmaster to get your tickets!
APW is proud to announce that the DJ Scratch Academy will be joining us on site! Come learn from the best! Take a look at this and some other Things To Check Out!
We're also proud to begin our "Win A CD By (virtually) Every Artist at APW" Contest! Click here for more info on how to enter!
ECO-RIDESHARE TO APW
Going to carpool or rideshare?
Sign up here - it's free to join and easy to use! PickupPal tracks the number of miles traveled via ride sharing, and keeps track of the amount of carbon emissions we have reduced as a result.
Remember- only carpoolers will have access to the onsite parking area!
And finally, we're sad to announce that Robyn will no longer be joining us at All Points West.
Due to rehearsals for Madonnas 'Sticky & Sweet' European tour and other commitments, Robyn is unfortunately forced to cancel her performance at New Jerseys 'All Points West' festival in August. Robyn is sorry about this unavoidable development as she was really looking forward to playing the festival. She says, "Sorry to all my fans who were expecting to see me. Hopefully I'll be there next year!"

Radiohead Aims To Reduce Carbon Footprint!
From Radiohead's Blog:
After the Radiohead commissioned report by Best Foot Forward was published, a lot of questions were asked about the way that we tour. The main issue is how the audience moves to and from the show. With the location and public transport links now a more significant factor when choosing venues, fans are being encouraged to think about alternative ways of travelling.
Beyond this, we have asked ourselves - what can we, the tour, do?
Staying at home is the obvious answer - no tour, no carbon footprint! but people will still go to gigs, and we are running a business, the business of providing a quality product {live music} to the customer {the fans}. If you start from this position and remember that we are responsible for the welfare of the 60+ people on the road, you very quickly hit some brick walls.
In the coming weeks we hope to show you what Radiohead are doing to change the way they tour in order to reduce their own carbon footprint.
We want to show the failings as well as the successes, and who has helped us along the way.
None of what we are trying to do could have been possible with out the cooperation of the band, crew, venues, suppliers and fans. It's a joint effort. We can dream up new schemes and come up with the resources, but it requires each and every one of us to participate for the whole thing to work. Let's start a debate. Things will only change on a global scale if the customer demands it.
Some of the initiatives are very simple and obvious, but make a big difference, others are new and innovative. It's not a perfect model; there are always limitations as to what can be done when putting on such a level of show.
Ultimately, that's the point. None of what we are doing should impede your enjoyment of a Radiohead concert, in fact; maybe it will be a better show, through the discovery of new technologies and a fresh way of thinking.
