AlissaGoesRAWR Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 here are jeff's tweets Person-was the NiFi fest a thing a hoax? No one is posting about the cancellation JEFF-Cancelled. http://nififest.com person-people paid thousands in airfare and hotel to see you guys live Jeff-we didn't cancel. Festival cancelled everyone. It sucks for me too. Sorry. Person-Exactly. They can get their show ticket money back, but flights and hotels are non-refundable. Jeff-how am I abrasive? Just relaying news. Jeff-you know about this as much as I do. Kinda shocked about it actually. Person-could it be a possibility you guys book another venue for the same date? Jeff-I couldn't even speculate. I hope so but I know nothing. Person-I know a lot of people were really looking forward to this, myself included. Jeff-me too Person-This is actually pretty heartbreaking, hearing you are just as disappointed as we are. Jeff-I talked to Whitey and Freese tonight. They're super disappointed too. For what it's worth. and then CDOG IS BEING RUDE TO JEFF FOR SOME REASON Of course. Female only entry, very strict dress code. DM @JeffMatika for more details. and jeff went back at him-what's your problem?You forgot the tweet where someone called Jeff abrasive, which has strangely been deleted.

Actually I read it earlier today on his twitter, but I'm just asking if people can see it still or did he deleted the tweets?
moonflower93 Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 man..... stop being butthurt about expectations. This is why I'd rather wait til a guarantee of a concert. if i spent 3-400 on a festival, and coming from PA, i'd DAMN WANT MY MONEY back 100 percent of it, including travel. it's my money i have to spend. and inb4 entitled comments, that's why i prefer other bands and other festivals. the rabid fans are too fucking ridiculous to have a GD concert worth it anymore. shitting on Jeff was rude though Cdog.......
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Why was CD mean at a poor handicapped animal lover?
YoungBlood Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Anyone think they will announce a replacement gig at really short notice like 924 Gilman and the show Billie Joe did with Norah ?
Dirty Rotten Bastard Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Who is responsible for how horribly this thread has been NiFi'd up?? I demand to know. It was better when it was about pizza tbh
Guest Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Who is responsible for how horribly this thread has been NiFi'd up?? I demand to know. Don't dwell on it, just suspend Ceadog. It's better for everyone that way.
Dirty Rotten Bastard Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Anyone think they will announce a replacement gig at really short notice like 924 Gilman and the show Billie Joe did with Norah ? I doubt they will do a show, but if they do it will probs be really short notice
niiicola Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Yeah, one of those mental chicks called him abrasive earlier on and deleted before I could screen cap it do you mean the one that said "Not your fault that it was cancelled I realize, but you could be a little less abrasive in your response to fans" if it is, i can still see it and it hasnt been deleted
Cori Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 I don't understand why I'm being called mental for a simple misunderstanding that I then apologized for. But whatever.
Dirty Rotten Bastard Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 I don't understand why I'm being called mental for a simple misunderstanding that I then apologized for. But whatever. Tbh I never saw the tweets to Jeff as more than a misunderstanding. I didn't see the one specifically calling him abrasive so I'm not going to comment on that. The tweets I saw even apologised for coming across in a certain way. Tweeting Jeff and directly calling him and green day out for the cancellation and demanding another show is one thing, but that isn't what you were doing at all and I feel other people have taken it out of context. Personally, you just seemed confused over the whole thing like a lot of other people were at the time. There were other tweets to Jeff - while a joke or not - which were more 'mental' than what you sent.
Khaleesi. Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 got my refund too. finally nifi did something right!
Guest Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 got my refund too. finally nifi did something right! I saw an ad on TV from NiFi saying that refunds would arrive within 7 business days. Yay promotion!
Khaleesi. Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 I saw an ad on TV from NiFi saying that refunds would arrive within 7 business days. Yay promotion! more promotion than they've done the whole festival, tbh
Khaleesi. Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Actually I was lying. I didn't really see that. i've been let down by nifi/green day yet again
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Did you guys use debit or credit cards...? Because I used my Discover card and it doesn't say my refund has posted yet.
Teenage Kicks! Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 I used a debt card and it hasn't posted yet in my account
Guest Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Did you guys use debit or credit cards...? Because I used my Discover card and it doesn't say my refund has posted yet. The Discover network is retarded and takes longer to post stuff. No idea why.
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Oh! I just checked my email. I got one about my refund, too. I had my email notifications turned off on my phone while I was on vacation.
Teenage Kicks! Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Lol back in may they said “We came in with eyes wide open, we understand the economics of a first year, second year, third year, when you do make money, and how you make it, and we planned for it,” Howard Mergelkamp, NiFi’s chief strategy officer, said in a press release when the festival was announced in May. “We knew out of the gate we didn’t want to be a mediocre festival, or a small one. We came from the approach that not only do we not want to be a failure, it has to be a success at a high level to penetrate the market, get notoriety, for people to come, experience and say, ‘Wow, I want to go back next year.’” What a trip.
