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!
"Tell it to Henry Altman. The Valley-based entertainment producer and real estate investor owns multiple developments in Rocky Point and a mammoth, 60-acre tract west of town."
oh brother...600 bucks ...
Note do the google search on Panama that has expats trashing him
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.
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

Rumors are flying wildly in Penasco with multiple sightings of famous artists supposedly checking out the venue. The hysteria is growing. Red Skelton was spotted at Playa Bonita. One local wag swears he saw the face of Buddy Holly on a Tortilla!! Another saw a Janice Joplin image in the sand at Playa Bonita. Things are rapidly getting out of control here and I'm getting frightened. This could be the biggest thing since..... well....... since....... ahhh there is just no comparison.
Maybe because he's a Texan Jerry. After all, there still not very well liked down in the south eastern part of our state and most everywhere in N.M..
. Texans...think they can come on your land an hunt without permission.They throw a few dollars around and assume we will lick their boots....a well earned reputation for being jerks
Armando, the owner of the Lighthouse restaurant, was a very successful music arranger for a long time. Worked with a lot of famous people. He once worked in that capacity for Herb Alpert.

Herb Alpert was the A in A&M Records....in fact he founded it.
So I was on the site www.boomerfestdays.com. Looks the same as it did when this all started. One question. Where and when was this picture taken? Is it from a past event in RP. If this turns out to be all they say it is, expect a LONG wait at the boarder both ways. It would be great for their economy, but too many people. Can you imaging the wake of trash it would leave behind?
Can the city sewer system handle that much?
Ok just got out of a very important meeting. This information was provided by insider individuals who are not authorized to release the information so they cannot be identified. It's a very unfortunate set of circumstances requiring this action but understandable at the same time. Many great events in history have been influenced by unforseen circumstances, creating confusion and yes on occasion ill will. We have to look beyond these circumstances with hope for the future. Hope that our children will not have to experience the desolation we feel today. Hope that things will be better in the future and these unfortunate circumstances will not repeat themselves. Therefore we must remain vigilent to prevent future occurances. This responsibility rests heavily on some but must be shared by all. A responsibility to look to the future with hope and a strong spirit. Humans are a strong species, able to withstand terrible circumstances. War, disease , pestilence have run rampant and this event will go down in history. After a meeing of participants the decision has been made to cancel the Hand Jive contest that was announced to be an important part of the Boomerfest Concert of 2014.. Yes, many will be disappointed but we will get over it soon.

Wow, I didn't think about that. All those loafs would cause big troubles in those pipes.
Heny's isn't a Texan. He may have stayed there for a while but he called Mexico "mehks eh koh" whereas in Texas we say "mex-ee-ko" - etc etc. Henry was born in a tribe in New York City. He has stayed a lot of places.
Hmm, no interest in the Bunny Hop? I really think we could set a worlds record with the line snaking along Sandy Beach. The vibrations from the hop with 10,000 dancers might set off something on that fault line there though?
I read that the worlds record is only 500 people. Come on ! We can easily beat that.
If we did it on the wrong side of the road everyone would get a ticket...another record! Most likely we could settle it on the spot,no need to go to the station
Rumors swirl that the upcoming Boomerfest will also feature a knock off of the most popular competition in Brazil, called here Missbumbumpenasco !!! That otta get the boomers hearts to throbbing !!;);););)
Using the peace sign in their scam will annoy people on all sides.The "Tracks of The American Chicken" was the rally point in the successful fight to force a withdrawal from Vietnam before another 50,000 Americans died ( my and most sane people's view) or it was the rally point by a social movement that surrendered to the enemy,brought on the collapse of America as a super power and made us all dress really stupid for 10 years.
