    Bamboozle has been canceled:

    In a statement released Friday afternoon, a spokesperson for Atlantic City — where the three-day festival was to be held May 5 to 7 — confirmed Bamboozle would not receive its final permits after organizers failed to submit necessary paperwork by the city’s deadline.

    So… do we interpret not submitting any of the required documents for permits as this guy’s way of weaseling out but trying to save face? That’s what it reads like to me.

    Without music, life would be a mistake. Supporter

    No wonder it bombed, the Adjacent Fest lineup is what Bamboozle should’ve been.

    Motel. Money. Murder. Madness.

    Clearly this wasn’t going to hit the mark, and they couldn’t afford the facility fees and any other deposits they were required to pay.


    They were bonkers to think THAT lineup was truly going to bring the kids (late twenties early/mid thirties adults) out.

    My friend and I had tickets to the Sunday date mainly just to see Finch play all of What it is to Burn. Once the festival imploded, Finch booked a show with Saves the Day and Valenica for that Sunday in Philly (where I live) to make up for it. So it really worked out for me!!

    I think they're the headliners though, so you could just bail after Valencia and Finch.

    Y'all aren't getting what I'm saying. Chris Conley is a garbage can of a human and supporting him in any way is nauseating to me.

    I would love to see Saves the Day again. It's been like 10 years for me.

    If you try living without inadvertently supporting anything due to something they said or have done you’re going to have a hell of a hard time enjoying life.

    yeahhhhh, but if you're actively choosing to still financially support a known abuser, that's pretty different.

    Sure, but when someone is an admitted groomer and abuser it makes it pretty easy. The hoops people jump through to support absolute pieces of shit always astounds me.
