i was wondering if anyone saw pictures of where they were staying before they dropped thousands. this is pretty dumb on both ends. im not spending 4gs for a vacation without seeing some real photos of my room

Would it have made a difference if they sent fake room photos Just look at this promo, sh*t fly as f*ck :



Damn near wants to make me cop tickets right now even though I know it's a scam

This is something that should be completed over a span of months, not some last minute shyt.

The real truth of the festival is that it wasn't rich kids who got finessed: it was broke/average people who wanted the lifestyle but couldn't afford it:



Fyre Festival organizers blew all their money months early on models, planes, and yachts

^one of the best articles I've read thus far. Had me like

This shyt:





Be surprised that hipster cacs who align themselves with hip hop/rappers are racist, brehs

Not a good look. Simple Negligence. That's exactly how you get sued!

That's not finesse at all. Finnese might be limited music performance time which is subjective/ no guarantee type of stuff. Natural dice roll.

The lack of security, lack of accommodations, & lack of medical personnel....is simple Negligence.

social media killed the music festival scene

we really having festivals on islands now

what happened to renting out a park, getting 4-5 artists/bands and throwing a 25 dollar show

but nah look at what hyped these dumb ass yuppies

the social media build up

as millennials, we take the L on killing festivals

i went to coachella in 2011 and it was a totally different thing compared to now

pre social media actual music fans were at shows, now it's all for the gram

 

[stealthbomber]

but on topic, i hope they lose the suit

respect to fyre's finesse

 

[Crayola Coyote]

people are so dumb. never buy into a new festival unless it's backed by actual entertainment companies! this looked like a scam from day 1.

Never knew. I would have been scammed

This isn't a realistic post and you know it. You don't factor in insurance, permits food and labor and security costs rising. You point on how you went to festival years ago but don't mention how the festival experience growth in popularity. The promoters are their to make money since the cost grew from land owners rising the cost to rent, of course social media plays a big role, its called promoting the acts to get people to show up. I know it's popular to make post with buzzwords like dumb yuppies and stupid millennial to get rep and daps. The festival promoters of course partner with Red Bull and other brands to lower their cost . Those bands weren't showing up to play for free. The people who were hired weren't doing it for the music and love , they were doing it for a check. The promoters ja and the white guy took a bath in loses and tried to recoup by cutting out food and living spaces to turn a profit. Anybody who promotes can say that and the bad weather hurt them the most. Ja was the face, he wasn't playing anybody, he was set up to be the fall guy if the event bombed.
