People Are Buying Tickets For Fyre Festival 2. Seriously.
Written by Jesse on August 23, 2023
Now, we missed live music quite a bit during the pandemic. But did we miss it enough to roll the dice on Fyre Festival Part 2? Because, it’s a thing again. Even after two whole documentaries about how much of a disaster(and scam) the first one was.
Freshly being released from prison, Festival founder Billy McFarland has made claims that a second iteration of the doomed music festival is in the works. And get this, presale tickets went on sale on Sunday, they’re already sold out.
Victoria Medvedenko and her boyfriend Cooper Sinkiawic were among the first to buy and they told CBS News:
“Our main concern is that we don’t know if big headliners will be willing to, you know, take that risk to be in something so controversial,” said Sinkiawic. “We’re gonna stay optimistic, but we’re gonna expect that there may be some cheese sandwiches.“
THEY. DON’T. KNOW. WHO. IS. HEADLINING?!?!
This is your red flag.
That and they haven’t announced where they’re holding the festival. Kinda big info you need if you’re traveling internationally. But there is a part of me that’s slightly optimistic and hopes that it’s a great show and there’s some redemption for the folks that got duped the first time around.
There’s no way though, right?
