I Worked at Fyre Festival. It Was Always Going to Be a Disaster. http://nymag.com/thecut/2017/04/fyre-festival-exumas-bahamas-disaster.html?curator=MusicREDEF
That night Ja Rule gave a toast. “To living like movie stars, partying like rock stars, and fucking like porn stars.” If Ja Rule is punished for anything perhaps it should be that.
http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/05/fyre-festival-pitch-deck This is everything that's wrong with advertising and social media "Fyre Starters"
He's represented a lot of celebrities in criminal cases and is a "legal expert" on TV all the time. I bet he'll have somebody else do the heavy lifting in the class certification, etc.
I mean, once they deplete the assets of the corporation, they can't really come after him and his assets correct? I assume they are low
It depends. With the way they did the social media promotional stuff, I think that it'd be possible to get them individually.
I hope a station wagon carrying Fuck Jerry and everyone he holds dear in life slips on a banana peel and drives off a cliff
It would seem the guy takes whatever is trending, cuts out the author via screen grab, and reposts to his followers. Just a shitty way of gaining notoriety. Meme thief is not something I ever thought would be a thing much less that would grind my gears.
Yeah, people can't just go taking content from one site and posting it on another site for blatant internet point theft...
I just think he got hustled. These guys pitched him on their plan and he's an idiot and bought in and just started partying on their dime and 'promoting' shit
What if I'm lazy and not cunty and appreciate the ability to follow one person for humorous stuff? Am I part of the problem?
Oh really? Tell me more about ripping off people's things and stealing their content. Tell me alllllllllllllll about it.
Sure thing. As a dad, a thread starter, and the first user, I've registered the trademark "Clown Baby's Official Dads of TMB." This way, I'll be able to police my brand from people like you trying to free ride off of my goodwill.
Well, I will now that I have trademark protection. But most of that money will go to my kids' college funds. You know, because I'm a dad
For anyone in the Nasheville area, was there any backlash from the original Bonnaroo? I remember it pretty much shutting down the Interstate for a while. It took us 12 hours to go 10 miles into the festival.
Nothing more than complaints and changes the next year. It was rainy and muddy, but the concert went on.
Nah, that took years before B got commercialized. It was a true jambad fest the first few years before slowly becoming more mainstream in recent years. And that had nothing to do with the logistics of the first year.
