His name is Henry Altman. Google him to find that he's a real estate developer and internet radio expat "Retire Abroad"-type salesman. Nothing to indicate he's ever done a concert previously. I've said from the beginning, this simply isn't going to happen. I feel bad for those who are out money, but it isn't like they weren't warned.
How many people do you think bought tickets? I would love to see the disclaimer language on the tickets too. I'll bet there weren't even actual tickets printed. Maybe a confirmation e-mail paying by credit card via the internet. Still, I'd love to see the disclaimer language. Rosy - P.S. Danny says "Hola Madrina!" LOL

I'd be shocked if anyone actually bought a ticket given the process. Of course there's one born every minute. I knew a gent that had a place in Penasco who fell for the Nigerian scam 5 or 6 times !! Each time he told friends that he was going to get the money this time. Unbelievable yes, and he was a tight a## with money. Odd as he was not delusional about other stuff. He was completely wiped out and recently died.

Altman owns a ghost subdivision on the way to El Golfo. maybe he is doing this just to get a mailing list?

I would certainly say he is trying to sell a development there but bet he owns nothing. Besides all that up and down stuff is on an Ejido, I'm pretty sure.

If we have not one single other thing to boast about on this forum, we can take pride that we have the best scam filters of ANY forum!! We know 'um when we see 'um and we call it like it is. I still remember the 1st time I read anything about Liberty Cove and how the DING! DING! DING! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! noise went off in my head. :puff:

Its a trance group. Don't think it goes with the boomer crowd (more like what the children of the boomers listen to). Just replace shrooms with Ecstasy
It is the kind of music that makes you give away your Pigeon Coop,renounce MMA fighting and move to Goa India and just live man.

I saw the ads but really didn't think much of it until I got a call from a Canadian that had rented my Green Valley house. They heard about it in Canada and knew about RP from being here. My manager in RP has not blocked my unit for the dates and they manage a lot of property. Is the general feeling down there, that this will never happen?

I was down there last year during those dates and believe I got a pretty good preview of where my ultimate journey will take me.

Was at my fav bar last night and rumor has it that George Lopez and Sinbad are two of the three comedy acts signed on. Man those budlight Lime & Rita's were pretty good!

If it does happen, it will probably showcase acts that typically perform at Indian casinos.

Sinbad!!!! Wow, those $1,500 VIP meet and greet tickets are looking like a real bargain. I heard that after his most recent bankruptcy Sinbad was running a lemonade stand in front of his soon to be foreclosed house.

My only question........"who took who?" I can't figure it out and was on the ground - it could have been great!

Hmmmm San Luis scammed by fake Mana concert
Authorities have launched an investigation after a small border city says it was ripped off by scammers posing as concert bookers for the Mexican rock band Mana.


San Luis officials said the city was swindled out of $50,000 in 2012 when it wired money to what they thought was a concert-booking agency in Mexico, the Yuma Sun reported.


The money was to pay for the Grammy-award-winning Mana to play at the city's Barrier 2 Bridge conference.


But Mana never showed up.


The supposed booking agency failed to respond to repeated phone calls and emails from the city seeking a refund.


The San Luis City Council has voted to write off the money as lost funds.

If you know who Mana is, $50,000 would be EXTREMELY cheap considering they are the U2 of the Latin World.
