Hmmm. Fyre 2 was due to start on May 30th in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.
Once again Billy McFarland has failed to get his act together & no venue has been secured in Mexico.

So the festival has been "postponed" while the boys try to secure another venue... in another country.

I wonder how many people bought tickets costing from $1,400 to $25,000? Plus there are eight “Prometheus God of Fyre” $1m packages, for suckers only.

Fool me once...

I know better than to underestimate the stupidity of people, but even then: who would buy tickets for Fyre 2? Everyone knows by now what a total scam and shit show Fyre is. But then again Trump also got reelected. Clearly there’s no cure for stupid.

For between $1,400 and $1.1m per ticket you can be a victim of Fyre Festival II. It's supposedly being held on Isla Mujeres, an island off Mexico.

However the local government knows nothing about it. Neither do any of the luxury hotels Fyre claims as "partners". No acts have been named.

A local tourism official adds, "If you go on their website and take the coordinates they provide, then put them in Google Maps, it takes you to the ocean."

That sums it up.

Every so often, when things look black, I remember that the #Fyre festival was a thing that happened. I don't remember anything since that provided such unadulterated amusement for so long.

While the #Fyre Festival certainly was groundbreaking in disastrous and overpriced events, currently #BurningMan is giving it a good run for its money.

If that dude is seriously going to do a #Fyre Festival 2, he's going to have to innovate in hellish conditions and bring human suffering to a whole new level to remain competitive.

I have faith though.

Why does this make me laugh?
