If you recall, Homeland Security flat out stated there are NOT enough "shelter in place" locations throughout Salisbury. One of the reasons for a shelter in place is RAIN. You certainly can't shelter under to roof of the amphitheater, there's no roof. You'd think for $1.4 million it would've had a roof but hey, this is Salisbury.
Several months of planning, millions upon millions of dollars invested and the thing is going to be a huge flop. Well, unlike the Festival, we don't play rap music but we are under roof at Trader Lee's and we will have live music this weekend. Oh, did I mention we don't have buckets for collections and our music is free. Our beer is extremely cold and we make damn good drinks. Come to Trader Lee's instead and let's rock & roll!!!
nice segue.
ReplyDeletePraise da Lord.
ReplyDeleteDo it lord do it .
Hope it pours all the time from start to finish. Where are all the people that will be attending? This expense should be the responsibility of the Owners of the the rental properties and contractors who has ripped off the tax payer on purchasing of valuable property for pennies on the thousands.
ReplyDeleteAccording to WMDT, it will even be difficult to buy beer or wine. The prices will of course be over inflated and you will be delegated to a small area just to enjoy an alcoholic beverage.
ReplyDeleteThey can keep it!
Why would you ever believe anything WMDT published? What a crap station.
DeleteThe pressure is on Dan tonight. Does he tell the truth, or will he give his low impact, the glass is half full forecast for the weekend?
ReplyDeleteMillions of dollars are riding on this forecast.
The pressure is on!
I'm sure the mayor has already threatened them!
I hope it rains a monsoon.
ReplyDeleteRain Mud Goose Shit Not enough cover ect,ect.ect. Great planning wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteTents going up in the OC inlet for Bikes and Sunfest in a few weeks. Hey Boy Toy, watch how a real town puts together a plan of action and resources to put on an event.
ReplyDeleteeven a blind squirrel gets lucky and finds a nut every now and then.
ReplyDeleteboy mayor probably crapped in his pants worrying about this disaster that is this weekend. Dan wannabe weather man is a dweeb who can't even discuss weather on delmarva peninsula. Every other place that dork points on the weather map but delmarva.
ReplyDeleteNice segue.
ReplyDeleteJoe you should run a shuttle!
ReplyDeleteAnybody else notice the 18 cent jump in gas prices locally? Is that because of the Jolk Festival?? Or was it nationwide?
ReplyDelete10:25- I noticed that all the way from OC to Centreville, but 2.60 in Snow Hill.
DeleteYou guys are all missing the point. You all think that the mayor is worried about the rain, it's the absolute opposite, he couldn't be happier. Remember when 300,000 people were going to come, then I think it was like 120k, then 80k, then 60k, I think the new number last week was 30k, well now if only 10,000 people show (probably still too high), he can get on TV and say, we had a great plan in place with plenty of cover and the acts put on a great show, unfortunately the weather just didn't cooperate and attendance was lower than expected. You see THIS is the out he's been praying for. The rain will give him an easy excuse as to why it failed.
ReplyDeleteAnd, the Perdue Food Truck only accepts CASH, absolutely no credit cards. Really, in this day and time??
ReplyDeleteCash only means they don't claim their real sales and they pocket the extra tax money they collect
