Todd Rundgren’s Musical Revival Camp marks Todd’s second annual retreat at the pastoral Full Moon Resort, following his 2011 Musical Survival Camp–the ultimate summer vacation giving fans the exclusive opportunity to learn how to “make it” and how to survive in the music industry from one of the industry’s most notorious survivors.
Todd explains how this year’s retreat will differ from the last:
“We are amending our concept this year to focus on the pleasures of the season. We shall take that hike which we were rained out of last summer. We shall party at the pool as we neglected to do. There will be the laying on of hands (by professionals), the volleying of the ball, the tubing of the Esopus [Creek] and perhaps even the dancing of the square.”
Musical Revival Camp special guest Mark Volman of The Turtles and Flo & Eddie offers his thoughts on the upcoming experience: “There are very few artists with whom I look forward to working, in fun and in business. Todd Rundgren is one of those artists. And after touring and making records with Todd over the years, I am thrilled to have another chance to work alongside him and his fans at Full Moon Resort. I can’t think of a better way to spend a few summer days.”
Attendees at Todd Rundgren’s Musical Revival Camp will have access to all workshops, seminars, gourmet meals, performances, and camp activities. All camp activities will be held at Full Moon Resort, which features an eclectic array of comfortable, rustic country-inn accommodations including simple B&B style guest rooms with shared hallway baths, guest rooms with private baths, country cottages with living rooms and kitchens, and even “luxury camping” in a yurt. “Primitive” campsites are also available. All accommodations are just steps away from daily camp activities. The grounds offer one hundred acres of meadows, forests and streams providing a natural backdrop for an unforgettable, enriching experience. Visitors will also enjoy the spring-fed swimming pool, onsite access to the Esopus Creek, and exploring the splendors of the Catskills on the nearby network of hiking trails. The 5-day vacation will be free of interruptions as there is no cell phone reception at Full Moon Resort or elsewhere in Big Indian, NY.
Todd Rundgren’s Musical Revival Camp is part of the successful Music Masters Camp Series (www.musicmasterscamp.com) held at Full Moon Resort.
