I have been in touch with Drew the last days and he has sent me his business plan. After having looked at it I can say it is very professionally presented, thorough and ambitious but feasible nevertheless. If I compare this to the projects some people have been throwing tons of cash into lately which hardly had any business plan at all or they lacked basic financials (like NEO-BEE recently), I think it's one of the most serious offerings here on Bitcointalk. The guys have experience organizing music festivals (have a look at the Lunar Massive videos on Youtube or their Facebook page) and I agree with Drew in that there is potential in this market.

This said, of course it's not for everyone (in fact I told Drew that Bitcointalk is probably not the best place to come at this moment looking for funding given the recent events). The organizers have their reasons to not want to do an IPO as such but rather limit the offering to a reduced number of investors which of course sets a higher share price. So if you're in a position to invest a larger chunk of money I would say: drop a line to Drew, sign the NDA and have a look at his plan, then do your research and then make your own decision.

Thanks for the vouch thehun

I promise that any interested parties will not be disappointed with the plan we have put together. If you're curious but skeptical, check the plan out. It will clear your doubts.

EDM music festivals are such a BAD idea right now.

People are tired of all the vandalism, riots, and drug overdoses that they bring.

Didn't you just hear that this year is going to be the last year of the Ultra Music Festival because Miami is fed up with the festival after a security guard was nearly trampled to death:

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/31/us-miami-ultra-idUSBREA2U17H20140331

That was probably the largest EDM festival in the country.

I personally attended the Electric Zoo festival in NYC last year. The last day was cancelled because two people ODed and died on the second. Guess who had to refund all those tickets and pay off the performers. Yes, the promoters.

EDM festivals are NOT a good idea right now.

Are you an alt of that idiot dank? 
When I saw the topic headline I thought to myself, it has to be Dank. Looked at name of poster and was like "Oh, an alt of Dank." Either way, we saw how this one ended up last time...On a positive for Dank though at least he didn't say he would turn the investment into an incredible 6000% return for investors nor ask for 1+ million dollars...

HI Dank.
What? I'm not Dank...

Looking for investment of ~2500 BTC for music festival, return = ~150,000 BTC

Anytime I need a laugh I just come to the lending board   Cheesy

No doubt it is always one or two guys here who are scammers and it's funny to read their suggestions or people who are too self confident and believe they can make such profits! What about the risk? who can guarantee that you'll make 6000% profit

we wouldn't be looking to take a loan out for interest, rather to exchange equity for capital.

Perhaps the confusion is based on the the fact that you posted in the Lending forum. There is another forum for stock investments. Just saying.

Since you made a post on facebook proving who you are, I think Tomatocage should hold off on his red negative mark on your trust. Although you won't get your loan most likely, I wish you luck with it nonetheless, you seem decently legit after your post on facebook confirming who you are. Still, no one has 2500 BTC laying around and very few would consider a loan offer here, you would need lawyers and contracts all written out most likely for that large of an amount.

Nope - dank asked for 10 million dollars.

I want to invest in land, give me your loan and you'll have whatever you want in return.  10 million is ideal, but I can work with lower amounts.  I've had over a dozen successful trades on these forums and I'm capable of doing great things for both of us, if you give me a chance.

Loan period will be for 4-6 years.  I'll double your 10 million if you want.  I'll give you a beautiful house and yard.  Whatever makes you happy.

(that thread is a good read to see what kind of idiot that dank is)
