Midwest Rockfest 2010

 

It looks like the fans of rock n’ roll and the summer festivals are taking a stand and speaking out.

A recent post >HERE< by Metal Sludge about the Midwest Rockfest has drawn some interest for sure. Parajumpers Femme Harraseeket It appears as though other festival message boards (like Rocklahoma) are having some heated exchanges and discussions about the new festival and it's primary representatives.

Please see the exchange below between Midwest Rockfest operation manager Tommy Shelton and a fan known as Ratt N’ Roll. We will put Tommy in yellow, and Ratt in blue.

For those of you that don’t visit the Rocklahoma message board, here is the complete diaglogue between Tommy Shelton, producer of the Midwest Rockfest, and myself:

Tommy Shelton:

Ratt N’ Roll:

So glad you decided to respond Tommy. Thank you for confirming both Nat and Donnie are directly and indirectly involved with your festival. louboutin en ligne In no way am I inferring you are not a legitimate business man attempting to run a legitimate music festival. new balance homme However, I would have to question why you have chosen to align yourself with two people that are probably considered two of the most questionable characters in the industry. You see Tommy, Nat and Donnie both have over $2500.00 dollars of my money from a music festival that was cancelled a mere months ago. adidas y3 asics gel lyte 3 uomo Surely you have heard of this festival known as Rock Gone Wild? You see Tommy, hundreds if not thousands of us lost a sizeable amount of money, much of which was taken directly from Nat via credit cards and Paypal, sometimes with obscene almost laughable promises made of front row seats, huge headliners, and VIP areas with dancers, champagne fountains, and ice sculptures.

Yes, I understand in hindsight this sounds ridiculous. asics france However these same parties you have “hired” are in a lawsuit at this very moment, fighting an evil casino that supposedly is responsible for deceiving all of us silly ticket buyers. So Tommy, you may have the best of intentions with your second year festival, but I certainly have to question your judgment in hiring Natile and working with Donnie. nike air max pas cher It really amazes me that the calendar has barely turned to 2010, and Nat and Donnie are actually pushing a new multi-day Midwest rock festival to the same general region of the Rock Gone Wild fiasco. Am I to believe that because you, Tommy Shelton, are involved I should readily pull out my credit card again this year, purchase VIP tickets, make plane reservations, and book the hotel/RV? Sorry Tommy, not this year.

Tommy, I can promise you one thing. louboutin femme Air Max Zero If you are legitimate, the worst choice in business partners/employees you could have made is Nat and Donnie. I speak from experience. ZX 700 I venture to say their involvement in this fest might not be just questionable, but criminal.

Tommy Shelton:

Glad you hit me up RATT. This will be my last post so I will finish with this. adidas zx 750 pas cher Aaron Rodgers There was 138 festivals large and small cancelled last year do directly or indirectly to the economy. RGW was brought down solely do to the CASINO. I own the Winfield Country Roundup that has been going for 6 years, I have produced numerous festivals and shows across the Midwest US. So I was brought in to help manage the festival RGW last year. All the promises that were made I know nothing about, but I do know all that was listed to be there was gonna be there because I setup. adidas yeezy All bands were paid and all was a go. For thoughs that still have not recieved there refunds will upon the settlement of the lawsuit. I do not believe the other 137 festivals gave any money back or offered. Parajumpers Californian Newport This is the reason Donnie Frizzell is purchasing for me on the Rock festival. ffxiv buying gil My Country show I still do. Natile is top notch in her designs and webpages. air jordan 11 Decisions are made by me they work for me period. So I understand the bad taste in your mouth but I know breath mints are in the works.LOL. nike free 4.0 v2 uomo So rock on cocky dog might see you in 2011.

Ratt N’ Roll:

Tommy, your reply is wrong up on so many levels, let me deal with it line by line.

Glad you hit me up RATT. This will be my last post so I will finish with this. Nike Air Max 2010 Homme There was 138 festivals large and small cancelled last year do directly or indirectly to the economy.

—You are not inferring that in anyway RGW’s cancellation is due to the economy are you? That would be a new one. 138 festivals cancelled? I’d love to know where you are getting your figures. adidas superstar 2 femme Link please?

RGW was brought down solely do to the CASINO.

—No sir, it was cancelled due to the promoters poor planning and decisions. Nike Air Max 2017 homme Nike Dunk High femme RGW had a venue contracted that RGW chose to bail on in Algona. chausson ugg chaussures running new balance louboutin suisse prix It is RGW’s fault the last minute venue fell through.

I own the Winfield Country Roundup that has been going for 6 years, I have produced numerous festivals and shows across the Midwest US.

—Do you put RGW on your resume too? Probably not, huh?

So I was brought in to help manage the festival RGW last year. Adidas NMD Femme

—This is where I begin to have an issue with you. Nike Air Max 2017 Donna Rosa

Nat, Donnie, and you Tommy are directly responsible for the fiasco that occurred in Iowa.

All the promises that were made I know nothing about, but I do know all that was listed to be there was gonna be there because I setup.

—You know nothing about all the promises, but it was all gonna be there? Huh?

All bands were paid and all was a go.For thoughs that still have not recieved there refunds will upon the settlement of the lawsuit.

—No, its been documented pretty thoroughly, the majority of the bands were not paid. asics gel kinsei 6 homme In fact, many of the bands paid your organization and have not seen a dime back. Your lawsuit is a joke, you have no contract with the casino.

I do not believe the other 137 festivals gave any money back or offered. adidas stan smith new balance prix This is the reason Donnie Frizzell is purchasing for me on the Rock festival. Adidas Zx Flux Femme

—Let’s just say it is true there are 137 festivals that have not offered any money back, how does that excuse you? How many of these 137 fests have the nerve to turn around 4 months later, with the exact same personnel, in the same region, with a multi-day 80’s rock fest, hawking more VIP tickets? Just yours, Tommy.

My Country show I still do. Nike Air Max Goedkoop

—Cool. So let me get this straight. If your event goes off without a hitch, you pocket the cash. bottes ugg australia Adidas Zx Flux Nike Air Max 97 Femme If you fail miserably and loose all your investors cash, and ticket buyers money, you fold up shop and say, “Hey, that was a separate corporation!”

Natile is top notch in her designs and webpages. ugg australia classic

—John Wayne Gacy was a great artist too! Call him! No, Nat didn’t kill anybody, but she is a liar and a thief. Ask her why she was calling ticket buyers and asking them to cancel their paypal purchase, so she could re-run their purchase through her merchant account. christian louboutin paris NIKE AIR HUARACHE

That sounds totally legitimate right?

Decisions are made by me they work for me period. adidas pure boost femme So I understand the bad taste in your mouth but I know breath mints are in the works.LOL. So rock on cocky dog might see you in 2011.

—The only decision I need to hear about you made is you are working with Donnie and Nat, knowing full well what occurred 4 months ago. Be warned everyone, this is the same cast of characters that received over 100,000 dollars in ticket money a few months ago and provided nothing. Don’t kid yourself that somehow it will be different this time.

I am going to forward this to any law enforcement agency, or district attorney, in the region that will listen.

We look forward to a reply or press release from the organizers of Midwest Rockfest if they so wish to send us one.

In the meantime, we will keep music fans updated.
