This came from Susie Flinn's website: "Boomer Fest Days Management isofficially changing the festival dates from September 25-29 2013 to June 11-152014. The date change is being made for several reasons, primarily to positionthe festival with ample time to market the event properly and obtain Nationaland Regional Sponsors for the BFD-PBS TV production, that will be aired acrossthe USA in late 2014 and will greatly add to the overall financial success ofBoomer Fest Days and the entire Puerto Penasco Community at large.

BFD like AeroMexico or the newHomeport effort is focused on helping Puerto Penasco in every way to realizeits full potential as the best drive-to and most convenient fly-in resortdestination in Mexico. BFD, as well as these other projects, require asignificant amount of time and capital investment in Puerto Penasco. BFD isstill very committed to the project and is now more prepared than ever to stagethe event June 11-15 2014.
Some of the Headliner Bands thatwere lost for the September date change, are now available for June 2014. Inaddition, BFD will have ample time to initiate and market a charter flightprogram to fly patrons to Puerto Penasco on AeroMexico chartered flights aswell as regular scheduled flights and charter buses from Phoenix and Tucson.

In every instance possible and whereit is proper, BFD will promote the new Puerto Penasco Convention Center, thenew Homeport and AeroMexico flights to Penasco in its TV, Newspaper &Magazine Ads, Highway Billboards, Posters and other forms of advertising includingonline webpage banners and social media outlets.BFD is now targeting the launch ofmarketing for the festival by Labor Day weekend 2013 to ensure the event willhave a 9 ½ month marketing campaign beginning with the following Labor Dayweekend schedule:

1. BFD will launch its interactiveWebsite August 28, 2013 announcing the first 4 Major Artists
2. BFD will initiate its onlineticket sales and accommodation sales August 28, 2013
3. BFD will start its internetSocial Media Campaign on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube as well as directtarget marketing to visitors in Puerto Penasco over the Labor Day weekend.

Yeah, not sure what's up with the lock thing on threads. Nobody is physically locking them and it appears to be completely random. I'll have to get in touch with Tyler -- maybe there's an update for our forum software to cure this.

He's gonna have to work REAL hard to do that again. I've changed several forum settings regarding new members. I won't go into all the details, but basically, if you're new here, you cannot post anything until I see what you have to say.

Isn't this proposed Boomerfest date the same as Roger Clyne's Circus Mexicus???? If not the actual date, it would be within one week of each other....good luck with that!

It's OK. Henry Altman is an "entertainment mogul" now - have you seen this? Back to the Beach - Phoenix Magazine
Entertainment mogul/land developer Altman thinks he has the perfect economic jump-starter: Boomer Fest Days, his long-in-the-works, five-day classic-rock bacchanal, staged on a beach just west of downtown Rocky Point. Featuring a boomer-pleasing talent wish-list that includes – or has included – Stevie Wonder, Carlos Santana, John Fogerty and Crosby, Stills and Nash, the event was originally scheduled for May 2013, then pushed to September, and again to October – the better, Altman says, to take advantage of pleasant fall weather and put as much separation between the Goodyear housewife incident and the festival as possible.

Ha, "pleasing talent wish-list".

Dates from the last press release. Can't you just feel the tension rising. I hear that the phone lines to booking agents are jammed up with all the negotiations going on trying to get in on the initial press release. I know I'm a nervous wreck with all the anticipation. It's just too nerve racking not knowing if Elvis has agreed to return. I'm still hoping for Buddy Holly too. I'm disappointed that the Big Bopper turned them down. That was my nickname in high school "The Bopper". I did hear there will be a Hand Jive competition with the winner getting a free harbor cruise and private concert with Janice Joplin !!

1. BFD will launch its interactiveWebsite August 28, 2013 announcing the first 4 Major Artists

2. BFD will initiate its onlineticket sales and accommodation sales August 28, 2013
