Almost 10 years after Ja Rule was scammed, hustled, bamboozled, and led astray, Fyre Festival is back

semi related. Music festivals have been such a mess in general lately. I am no longer buying them in advance. Many main bands dropping out, or switching headliners days (screwing over people who get day passes.) Or just waiting until the last minute to cancel when they know they cant pull it off. Its a bummer and I know it has to be so hard to put them together but I can't trust them to be worth the money anymore.

How wasn’t he banned from doing this exact thing again?

Also why are you saying this was ten years ago??? Why would you lie op??? 😭

I feel you on both, but especially that second point. 😢

People are morons who don't learn.

Also, it is a "meme" now and people are probably hoping for another disaster to be apart of a "meme."

Man, I miss when barely anyone actually knew what a meme was.

I literally remember having discussions here 15 years ago about how it was pronounced. 😆

"Is it "me-me" or "meem"?"

Excuse me, that was 10 years ago?

What‽ I don't like.
