This whole thing seems absurd. A rich festival organized by Ja Rule with Blink-182 as one of the lead acts? It sounds like something from the early 2000s that would have been on Myspace. Yet despite all promises of glamour, it turns out to be nothing much than the equivalent of a high schooler's backyard party that was only thrown because his parents were gone for the entire weekend in another country.
