The Moapa Band of Paiute Indians in Nevada will host a music festival that was scrambling for a new location after being rebuffed by the federal government. The tribe stepped in when the organizers of Further Future withdrew plans to stage the May 1-3 event at the Anniversary Mines. Although the site is privately owned, the Bureau of Land Management and the National Park Service denied permits to use public roads for the festival.

The festival will now be held on the reservation, at a location right off a major interstate. The site is a few miles north of the tribe's travel plaza. The 18,000-acre reservation lies about 45 minutes north of the McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas. Get the Story:
