Well considering most millenials are Hillary supporters and town trashing antifa anarchists, especially the trust fund ones like these, I would consider the festival a resounding success. Maybe next this promoter can hold a festival for them in North Korea, call it the “Steal the poster from the wall” festival.

That Vanity Fair article just had to get in a dig at Trump. What the hell did Donald Trump have to do with this idiotic scam called the Frye Festival?

"That night, as it became clear that the festival was collapsing, they were forced to scramble to find a way back to the mainland. Many took to chronicling their plights on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, and that was what transformed the Fyre Festival from a failed music venue into a richly symbolic moment in Donald Trump’s deeply divided America."

If they are charging this 25 year old with Wire Fraud, then how does Hillary skate?

Thank you Jeff "I-Recuse-Myself-And-Apologize" Sessions.

And yet the Americas Cup event has gone off extremely well, showing that meticulous planning can create a haven for 100,000 well heeled fans.

So the problem must not be the Bahamas but the organizers.

The lawyers will get richer.

They all thought they were gonna enjoy rap and hip-hop out in the islands with luxury accommodations for their thousands of dollars. I guess some could have slept on those boxes and used the garbage bag as a pillow.

Shortly before the event, Fyre informed ticketholders that the event would be “cashless (and cardless),” and encouraged attendees to put up to $1,500 in advance on a digital Fyre Band to cover incidentals, according to one lawsuit. Those wristbands were merely a stopgap solution to help the company’s cash flow, according to two employees with knowledge of the accounts.

Well, how very NEW WORLD ORDER-ish. With tattoos and digital money, a generation set up for the Mark of the Beast like never before. The Greek word behind "Mark" is "charagma"(sp). A word for tattoo. I'll be posting an example (YouTube video) of a digital cash payment band after this post. Also the digital grocery store system commercial from 2007. Kardashian Kyndall Jenner got $250,000 to promote this thing, according to Wiki.

Eliminate physical cash - make all transactions electronic - what could possibly go wrong?
