Upstate New York’s moe. gave their fanbase one final treat before heading off into the sunset for a well deserved hiatus of undetermined length this past weekend at moe.down 9 at Snow Ridge in Turin, New York. Over the course of three days, The indie-jam rockers busted out a number of rarities including Funky Reuben – a tune that hadn’t been played in over 1500 shows. moe. concluded their six sets of music with typical humor by performing Always Look on the Bright Side of Life from Monty Python’s Life of Brian. Let’s take a look…
