It is what it is...there is no cruise ship on the planet that allows guests to pick and choose their embarkation and debarkation points unless is it is a month long cruise or one of the residence cruises. No cruise ship sells rooms, slots dining rotation or makes a profit by selling a cruise in...

All the more reason why the home port is starting to look like Boomerfest. There is no way they will ever fill a 4,000 passenger ship week after week cruising around the Sea of Cortez. Just as they will never sell a $3,000 dollar ticket to see some aging rock bands (that of course, still can't...

You are correct, with a short tour (3 shows) it is easier and more cost efficient to hire local.

Yes, they usually cross the border, clear customs and then transfer the trailer to a waiting truck that is registered in Mexico. For major U.S. bands, a tour of Mexico is usually Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey. They have the large population base with the income to support the ticket...

I have not worked for a single artist that did not demand a Ritz Carlton or Four Seasons hotel for the artist and upper management. Even the crew would need a Holiday Inn or Homewood Suites style hotel (which we don't have here). mis2810 is correct in her assumption that load-in and load-out...

Not really...it is frowned on in the industry to use the name of any artist that is not under contract. Well known festivals such as Coachella do sell tickets long before the lineup is announced, but they offer discounts for this and they have a proven track record of delivering. For a new...

Even if they manage to book any known artists, the agent who sells the show will no doubt hold the promoters/producers to certain attendance benchmarks. If they don't hit a minimum threshold, the agent will pull the artists performance from the lineup. Just watch for the cautionary fine print...

When I was younger, I worked in the music business doing concert tours for almost a decade (merchandise, production and then tour accounting). This is not how things work. Agents sell shows to experienced promoters, not first time show buyers. Agents do NOT assist in booking travel or obtaining...

It was getting good, but they couldn't take the heat and they deleted everything including their ticket prices.

Examining the Boomerfest concept from a logistical standpoint it does not add up. Agents rely on their top tier acts to feed agency coffers. What agent would be willing to sell a national act to an untested festival and a first-time talent buyer, in a city of 30,000+ people in a foreign country...

We tried La Brisa tonight for takeout. Staff was friendly and explained the menu. I had the red beef burro enchilada style and it was excellent. The burro came with a small serving of beans and rice. Price for two burros, chips and salsa was around $180.00 pesos ($15.00 USD). We will go back...

Sorry, but this was not the case when we went. I spent $50.00 on food and beverage and was charged for the chips that I never asked for (as were others). Glad to hear the policy has changed.

My wife and I own an LG that is an all-in-one unit (one single unit, not the stackable ones). It works excellent but keep in mind you have to do slightly smaller loads of laundry. It fits in the size of a regular washer and has allowed us to add a freezer to our laundry room for food we buy in...

I don't want to pile on, but this was not the case. They chips were placed on the table without a single word being spoken. As we have not been back, we don't know if they have corrected this.

This is clearly retaliation for our efforts to curb illegal immigration to the United States (kidding). Funny that they can't control the dog population within Mexco (Rocky Point is, by far, the best I have seen in Mexico thanks to the efforts of some wonderful people) but yet they seem overly...

Outed or ousted? There is a significant difference between the two. The first implies that they were closeted homosexuals, where ousted would imply they were removed or voted out of office. I do not know many people at LP so any information from Ernesto or others about the current state of...

The promoters of Boomerfest said they had a huge announcement scheduled for September 14, 2012. In the end it was nothing more than the same press release they distributed earlier in the week in Rocky Point. It has been almost 45 days since their "big announcement" and not a single artist has...

My wife and I went to both the Wrecked at Jen's Joint and the Beach Bum tonight (Monday). They were very different experiences. Wrecked told us from the very second we walked in the door that it was drinks only and that food service would be coming in the next few weeks. When we inquired about...

I removed it because I thought my comment was wrong. Just as your comment is also wrong.

DELETED...I will play nice
