Aruba Music Festival has issues as well … Lionel Richie, you know your career is over when …

 

Lionel, you know your career is over when … your name on the billboard comes after the Puppetshowpuppet show. Thus is the case of Lionel Ritchie and his desperate attempt to hold on to his music career. Lionel Richie played at the Aruban Music Festival which as reported by Amigoe, was not without its issues. What’s next in Ritchie’s career, opening up at the demolition derby?

But on Saturday night there were a few issues. During Richie’s performance the music in back was not loud enough. When the public reacted to something Richie had said, you couldn’t hear him anymore. At the back of the field of the Entertainment Center people were able to have full conversations even during his performance, which didn’t do any good for the music. Also the opening acts ended too early and it was a full half hour before Richie took the stage. The music that was played in the interim was okay, but not a good warm up for the audience.

 

Amigoe, October 10, 2006: Party, fiesta, all night long 

Between songs the singer kept seeking out contact with the public, managing to achieve real interaction.

ORANJESTAD – Lionel Richie took the stage on Saturday night during the second night of the Aruba Music Festival. He warmed up the public with well known ballads, who calmly enjoyed the scene and moved along a little with the tunes of this often romantic music. Until Richie played ‘Dancing on the Ceiling’, announcing the festival had now really began. 

To the sounds of this hit people took to their feet and everyone in the Entertainment Center danced along. Richie did a good job setting the tone and atmosphere. Particularly with his encore he really brought down the house. For their last tunes Richie and his band played the world renowned ‘Hello’ and ‘All Night Long’. Between the songs the singer kept seeking out contact with his audience, achieving a truly interactive show. Richie’s concert was a mix of recent numbers, golden hits, and songs from his days with The Commodores. The people who came to the show knew most of the music from their youth and sang along loudly. 

The Aruba Music Festival was successful and well organized again this year. But on Saturday night there were a few issues. During Richie’s performance the music in back was not loud enough. When the public reacted to something Richie had said, you couldn’t hear him anymore. At the back of the field of the Entertainment Center people were able to have full conversations even during his performance, which didn’t do any good for the music. Also the opening acts ended too early and it was a full half hour before Richie took the stage. The music that was played in the interim was okay, but not a good warm up for the audience.

      Ohh really?? I heard it was a great concert..It was totally sold out..and there were 5000 tickets sold..only 1000 to Locals rest to tourists.
      Sound is always bad here..we are used to that..

      _____

      SM: Linda … Lionel is beyond a hasbeen. His best days were with the Commodores and that was over 25 years ago. Lionel’s sell out from his R&B roots was his undoing. You could not pay me money to endure a Lionel Richie concert.

      I do hear that they play his records at GITMO to make the terrorists talk. ;)

      Â  “As his popularity skyrocketed, Richie moved farther away from his R&B origins and concentrated more on adult contemporary balladry, which had been one of his strengths even as part of the Commodores. After 1987, Richie fell silent, taking an extended break from recording and touring before beginning a comeback toward the tail end of the ’90s.”

      Lionel must not be to well informed about Aruba. Does he not know Aruba can’t get anything right? If you have a sound problem someone should have done something about.. I guess they conducted that festiable as they usually do everything else(just let it go it will pass and everyone will be happy)!

      No offense intended, buy what other entertainment is there on your island in regards to BIG NAME entertainers?

      Given that there are not alot of BIG NAMR entertainers going to Aruba, it very well may be easy for a sell out.

      Do you think that Lionel’s agent knows he sold 6000 tickets?

    11. Arubaanse on October 10th, 2006 12:54 pm

      And he was in the Netherlands yesterday. For the Robert Jensen’s show. It was pretty funny. He seems like a cool guy but he is not the “superstar” that he used to be in the 80′s.

      Btw, how is everybody doing??:)

    23. SUPER DAVE on October 10th, 2006 5:45 pm

      linda, a lot of people will take a bribe to come to aruba, or a free trip. these people have never experienced the loss of a child and therefore will learn the truth upon arriving in aruba. i wish no evil on the honest arubans, but there are people there that know what happened to natalee holloway and are witholding information to a murder crime and also protecting murderers. your island will suffer as long as these criminals hold out. you as a citizen should be alarmed that this happened on an island so small with at least seven murders in the last year. but you and ones like you are causing your own downfall and don’t think we can’t se this. we will keep it up as long as it takes !

      Hey Carpe!

      I hear ya on taking abit of a break…..i was pulled away too for alittle bit. I’ve spent alot of time pouring over the stills you’ve captured & highlighted here, i’m sure everyone has. More than anything in the world we wish it was not Natalee in these stills, but it is, and J2K & Paul put her there. The Van Der Sloots & Kalpoe’s hurt her so bad from looking at these injuries to her face, head & hands. There are defensive knife wounds/slices in the hands, they cut her face & her throat and her skull bashed halfway in. Natalee’s death was no drug & or alcohol interaction or overdose, if that was all that happened there’d be no need to hide her body. Natalee wasn’t just raped that night, she was stabbed & beaten with something and kicked by these punks. The hand injuries tell it all. She was being stabbed first & used her hands to ward off the knife, getting cut in the palm’s of her hands. She was grabbing at the blade trying to protect herself, thats why there are cuts to her fingers. She was grabbing for the blade of that knife because she knew they were trying to kill her. She knew after the first or second time she felt that knife that she was not going home and thats why she grabbed that blade.

      Here’s a quote from the Judge who exonerated Williamson, whom this non-fiction book is about: “God help us, if ever in this great country we turn our heads while people who have not had fair trials are executed. That almost happened in this case.”
      Now are you actually for Justice for Natalee, or do you to want PJ2K to meet “vigilante justice” right now without completion of the investigation and it’s subsequent outcome?

      Thank you Carpe! Its impressive how much you’ve progressed in the quality & detail in every still.
      Because of you & all the hard work you’ve done with video 24 you’ve precluded any doubt of what was done to her should these perps try & say it was just from drug & alcohol.

      Alot of caring, concern & love for another human being went into every single still here & it shows. Your time & patience seeking out as much detail as possible lends us both to agree it is Natalee. The Sloots, Kalpoes & Aruban Officials are just fine with letting the family & supporters of Natalee be in limbo wondering if theres a chance she could be alive & held captive or dead. I’m know everyone has wrestled with that, the NOT knowing is the worst & arubans know this. I’m convinced it is Natalee in that bag/tarp, they can’t hurt her anymore but their pain is just getting started.

      When the Arubans decided not to go after J2K because of sweaty’s connections, what other choice is there? He should have confessed(some believe he did) and took his 15 years. He will always have a big fat bullseye on his ass! He would have been much safer in prison.

      I read on another blog that Paulus owns property/ies in the vicinity of the Racquet Club.

      (I bet none of those properties were searched at all.)

      Perhaps that is where Joran took Natalee.

      Also, later on, Joran was spotted in the car (by gardener) near the Racquet Club.

      I also read that the pinpointing of Joran’s location via cell phone calls, etc. can’t be totally relied upon for accuracy.

      I’ve been a Lionel Richie fan for a long time and have been happy to see him back in the limelight. Unitl now. Thinking of him singing in Aruba is a real let-down. Granted, terrible things happen every day around the world, but if letters were actually sent asking him not to go and drawing Natalee’s story to his attention, then that’s a real let-down. Especially when he has a young daughter himself.

    64. mayan_moons on October 11th, 2006 5:08 pm

      Hey nychic!

      I did think of you when i heard about the crash & so glad you’re ok. Everybody i know there are ok too, i’ve been praying that people were at work & not in the condo’s. Do you have any news about that hon?

      Cory Lidle Yankees pitcher was the pilot. Very sad. Brings back Thurman Munson memories.

    67. nychic on October 11th, 2006 5:23 pm

      thanks mayan -

      I could see the smoke earlier from my terrace

      The crash was about on the 40th floor of that
      building and I am on the 33rd – so I had a
      pretty good view until it started raining -

      Small planes and helicopters fly along the East
      River all day long and this building was very
      close to the river -

      Corey Lidle was 34 yrs old and he only had
      his pilots license for a short while –
      they said he loved to fly to avoid the traffic
      (wouldn’t we all love to have that luxury)
      he has a 6 yr old son and a wife who they
      believe were on another plane -

    68. nychic on October 11th, 2006 5:53 pm

      FYI -

      Now being said that only 2 confirmed dead:

      Corey Lidle and The Flight Instructor

      2 people that were in the apt. walked away
      from the accident !

    69. mayan_moons on October 11th, 2006 6:25 pm

      wow nychic that is up close & personal with that view, one thing to see it on tv, quite another in person.
      Hats off to New Yorker’s for the way they respond in minutes of chaos & confusion until it was known for sure it was just an accident.

    70. mayan_moons on October 11th, 2006 6:31 pm

      Really only 4 died? wow thats great news. Thats amazing more wern’t killed by the smoke. A tragic day for the loved ones of those who died.

      capt. insomnia – where on earth in the 24 video did you get the people having sex/rape?? I see nothing, on your photo or the video. You talking around 3:14 or right when the camera pans away from the basin?

      Get some sleep, this ranks up there with the 6 toes :)

    73. OMG.. It's Them on October 12th, 2006 10:18 am

      Is the Aruba sparkler about to fizzle out w/Scared Monkeys???
      We know the whole Natalee Holloway thing is a shame for the Family of the girl and the Innocent, and she should be found, along with the truth being known….But a year and change later and this site is dogging Lionel Ritchie for playing in Aruba???!!!…LOL…Time for some dessert yet??

      LIFE ANYONE???? YES, S******G ON LIONEL RITCHIE B/C ITS HIS FAULT!! : /

    74. vicki on October 12th, 2006 11:34 am

      OMG,there is no way we are going away. We will BOYCOTT LIERUBA until the end of time. It will be a whole in the ocean for what ever POOR people that want to go there. IMO, it was a “fun” spot for Grads but not anymore. Its a place for average ppl that have saved all year long for a vacation. Not anyone I want to hang with. So take your Lionel’s and go sing with them.Who cares. I too will build a 4×2 with both sides saying BOYCOTT ARUBA with scaredmonkeys.com under it.

    75. Miss-Underestimated on October 12th, 2006 1:32 pm

      Yes OMG and you knew to come here. Why are you trolls so afraid of this site?

    76. mrskrass on October 12th, 2006 1:53 pm

      Oh look who was on Robert Jensen’s show just a few days after Beth….

      Now THAT makes me laugh!!! I hope this proves to you how much Jensen really cares about Beth…..

      Ha! Ha! Ha!

    77. mayan_moons on October 12th, 2006 2:20 pm

      OMG: We know this whole Natalee Holloway thing is a shame

      _______________

      Even when you try to show a sliver of humanity it still comes out insulting, “The Natalee Holloway Thing” as you put it shows in neon lights that you aruban’s think of Natalee as an inanimate object to be thrown away & forgotton & hoped we’d be like you & do the same.

      You thought WRONG.

      Oh….one more thing OMG, what happended to Natalee Holloway isn’t a shame.

      IT’S MURDER.

    78. nychic on October 12th, 2006 3:12 pm

      To Mrs we-don’t-give-a-rats-ass-who-you-are:

      The Fact Remains –
      The Jensen Show Beth Appeared On Was A HUGE SUCCESS !!!

      It Seems No Dutch Asshole Can Handle That -

      So, Laugh All You Want – The Mission Was Accomplished
      The Word About Natalee Was Broadcast To Many Who
      Appeared To Have A Change of Heart -

    79. Miss-Underestimated on October 12th, 2006 4:04 pm

      Nychic

      Some were hoping that the Natalee Holloway story would not expand beyond the posting on the internet, in fact they were hoping the story had simmered down and was out of the television media. SURPRISE…… Beth was INVITED to Jensens show, proving that there are people out there concerned about Natalee Holloway. Boo Hoo it all you want, it worked, there were supporters from Holland that even posted here in support of Beth’s plea to find her daughter Natalee and what happened to Natalee.

      I think you call that SOUR GRAPES….
      Why do you suppose this site bothers the trolls?
      Afraid that the pig may be detected?

      Even if I got out of my seat and ran up
      and beat you over the effin head with
      my CD Case you would still see nothing!

      You are a defense lawyer. That

      U DA BOMB. ;)

    83. Carpe Noctem on October 12th, 2006 4:30 pm

      Joran and the Kalpoes…

      Those pieces of lying, murdering, raping refuse better hope and pray for all they’re worth that this case gets
      wrapped up with a trial.

      I am pretty sure the other option would have
      them stuffed in the 510-24 WATER BASIN or in the
      trunk of an abandoned car. That’s
      what I think.

      You couldn’t pay me to SPIT on a Van der Sloot…
      I’m afraid I would catch something.

      I don’t believe in vigillante justice, but I do understand when some people want it. Let the system work is a joke. The system hasn’t been working the past almost 18 months. If it wasn’t such a tragedy, it would be the Oscar for the best comedy movie of the year. I don’t have a problem with letting the system work, where they have a system. The only system I have seen is the buddy system. Who in Aruba is working for Natalee and Justice for Natalee this past year? Stephen King couldn’t write this script.

      NYChiC, what a tragedy and what a tragedy about Cory
      Lidle:( My favorite baseball player played for the Yankees.. Catfish Hunter,,, what a class act he was..

    85. yoyo muffintop on October 12th, 2006 8:12 pm

      carpe, yep you could thump it and I wouldn’t see it. Especially this one – some misc junk on the water edge, or sex/rape in broad daylight close to the side of the road in the open. hmmmmm.

      question though – do you think the type of plastic bag that would be semi-tranparent could hold the weight of say 100lbs? And if it’s multiple bags, couldn’t that itself cause the images you are getting?

    86. GRETAmal on October 12th, 2006 9:58 pm

      yoyo, Let him go. He is harmless. We ALL know IF those pictures meant ANYTHING the FBI and JQK would be on TV telling us about this BIG BOMBSHELL. Let him entertain himself. I think that’s all he has to do.

    87. Carpe Noctem on October 12th, 2006 10:25 pm

      Now let’s don’t go bashing Wayne Newton!

      ….

      Neverrrrr!

      I heart Wayne Newton, bro bro.

      I just somebody would show me the back of the Clairol box where he gets that JET JET BLACK color for his hair.
      I have studied it extensively, and I am pretty
      sure that it is nowhere to be found in nature.

      j/k ;)

    88. mayan_moons on October 12th, 2006 10:34 pm

      Since when do FBI go on tv talking about case’s….never.

      Jey oxbow!

      What were you saying my way the other day?

      no comprende.

    89. mayan_moons on October 12th, 2006 10:44 pm

      Hey Carpe!

      Still # th_newbatch0003 is so clear. Has everybody taken a look at it? Carpe just posted it yesterday.
      Its not enough to save the pic, right click & choose download selected with free download manager. It makes a huge difference.

    91. yoyo muffintop on October 12th, 2006 11:47 pm

      malmal – “We ALL know IF those pictures meant ANYTHING the FBI and JQK would be on TV telling us about this BIG BOMBSHELL”. JQK-yes, FBI-no, Holloway/Twitty’s-yes.
      But “Let him go. He is harmless…Let him entertain himself. I think that’s all he has to do.” is not really a nice thing to say, no? Do I believe any of the bag stuff-no. Do I want you speaking for me or telling me what to do-no.

    92. nychic on October 13th, 2006 12:05 am

      fyi

      LOL Carpe, I agree about the black hair. But us graying folks have to do something to try to keep our youthful appearance. Don’t let the trolls get to you dude, they’re just scared you’ll actually come across something useful that could hurt their heroes, the lying, murdering, gangraping Pimps and old men who were on Aruba at the end of May 2005. Keep up the good work.

    95. Miss-Underestimated on October 13th, 2006 8:26 am

      nychic

      It was direct towards MrsKrass, the troll
