Anyone going to the Global Citizen Festival tomorrow in Central Park?

I don't like to be near people.

Suit yourselves but it might be healthier to avoid rapper concerts

Tropical storm Ophelia may make an appearance.

It's hard to think of a stupider stage name than Megan Thee Stallion. Why was she even headlining? She only has one album, so perhaps her cancellation is for the best.

Global Covid Fest

Is Covid back with a vengeance?

I'm first in line, and I know you're dying to meet me!

Or people won’t get covid. Like the risk hasn’t been there since 2020 - or that massive concerts (and small house parties) haven’t been happening.

Megan the Horse probably worried she’d get shot again.

It's been established that Megan Thee Stallion is an incredibly stupid name. But even by itself, Megan is one of the ugliest common female names. Probably because it makes me think of eggs. And the egg in Megan is definitely hard-boiled... extremely overcooked, with the greenish hue and a sulfurous stink.

Megan has pulled this more than once. She commits to an event, then pulls out if she gets a better offer. No big loss.

Jungkook of BTS Will be there.

Red Hot Chili Peppers? They're still alive?

Padma is one of the speakers. That makes it all worthwhile.

This thing died when they vomited up Harold and Fraud, the Douche and Douchess of Sausages.

Game Over.

They came despite the rain..............

Did anyone watch? Did Lauryn Hill show up? I’ve heard next to nothing about the whole event.

She was there.

News report

Chili Peppers

Megan Thee Cunt.

No cunt there, just Lauryn Hill

Cunt cancelled to go sing a number at Beyonce's show.

Not unless I fly into New York for it.

Heard Lauryn Hill was great.

Fuck no!

only dumb fucks would go.

Is Lauryn Hill still crazy?

If the Douche and Douchess are involved in any way, I'm sure that the "charity overhead" gets the lion's share of the money.

The UN taught them well

Really, R32? I thought they learned it from Dump's scamming "charity" where he ripped off so many real charities.

Dump and the Douchess are like two malignant narcissists in a pod. So cozy! No wonder they hate each other.

I watched some of Jungkook’s set and the best part was Latto. He wasn’t even trying to sing live.

Jungkook is a big enough solo star to be insulted about the rest of the line up. Lauryn and the RHCP all had their day, but it’s long past. I’m sure the rain didn’t help either.

I have no idea who Junkook is but I have heard of Lauryn Hill.

review.

I had free tickets to this a few years back. It was an awful, awful experience. The cattle run to get in, no backpacks or water bottles, and the massive line to get anything to eat or drink. Also, they have giant Jumbotrons because there's no way you can see anything without them. Stay home.

r8, I got Covid last October (2022) at the Pet Shop Boys/New Order concert at the Hollywood Bowl.

The 𝑺𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑬𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒉 types destroyed the park.

Central Park's iconic Great Lawn is set to be closed to the public until spring 2024 after the grass was churned up by a music festival.

Huge crowds descended on the Manhattan hotspot on September 23 for the Global Citizen Festival, which quickly the space became more reminiscent of the boggy chaos that ruined this year's Burning Man festival.

About a third of the 12-acre green space was destroyed by a 'combination of heavy rain, foot traffic, and machinery used for staging' wrote NYC Councilwoman Gail Brewer in a letter to Mayor Eric Adams.

Brewer urged Adams to move the event to another location in the future, with the Great Lawn - one of the most popular summer spots in the Big Apple - now closed until next April at the soonest.

The Central Park Conservancy, which made the decision to shut the space, said the lawn was ruined by 'saturated conditions', which came after large storms whipped up by the remnants of Tropical Depression Ophelia.

The environmental body described around a third of the Great Lawn as 'fully destroyed', with images of the scene showing it consumed by mud.

While crews are now 'working to restore the lawn', the group said they only hope to open the space next spring due to the damage.

'The Central Park Conservancy is very disappointed that the iconic Great Lawn is now closed and unavailable for New Yorkers to enjoy this fall,' a spokesperson for the Central Park Conservancy added.

Kookie.

No Megan Thee Stallion? What a loss.
