Lonnie Holdaway and the Hurricane CD reissues scam


Recommended Posts

I would guess not...a lot of tough talk with absolutely no follow through, unfortunately.

 

Shame. I was hoping to read about an ass whoopin. ;)

Did "David" carry on contacting people claiming he'd been scammed as well? There were lots of mentions of legal action, getting the police involved, etc. Did that ever happen?

 

Adriano needs to answer this one, I guess. As far as I know he has been the hardest by this asshole.

I remember when this went down. He made all these CDR's for anyone who asked so the trust would be there. What a fucking thief....Wow. I didn't send him anything for the reissues, thank God. I feel sorry for those who did. Wonder if he did ever get his ass kicked for this....

I was one of his "victims", even though one of the smaller ones (app. $120). What actually happened to this "piece of shit" ? Does anyone know ?

I know most folks never got any money back...but do we know if he ever got in any trouble over this? the way I was buying rarities back then I could have easily fallen for this...I just remember a small voice telling me to not send him money...I asked him to send me one cd as proof he had these rarities and then I would have ordered alot...he quickly disappeared....those were crazy days...I wonder whatever happened to the evil Ramirez Brothers!?

I got all of mine back but I was threatening to drive to his house & pound him. It was just over $100 if memory serves. There were many who got burned badly...he should have gone to jail.

I am so sorry that happened to you Adriano. That scumbag got me for over $120 but that's peanuts compared to the people who lost thousands.

 

And I bet this punkass bitch is still out there scamming people. He seriously does need an ass kicking.

I know this was addressed in a thread or two earlier this year, but in case anyone missed it:

Of particular interest, the last post in the thread:

And for the cherry on top, his GEMM store has been updated TODAY:

He's either just fired it up again, or has done no transactions there. Either way, it looks like he's on the prowl again.

What a douche....bad thing is he could be among us under a different name or anonymous.

He's not too busy at GEMM right now. 15 items listed. 1 out of 1 items ordered in last 180 days was not available. 0 items shipped in past 180 days.

I felt bad for everyone here who got taken. I'm glad I am a cheap SOB and didn't partake.

I just remember how convincing he was and how everyone was so excited. Remember, back then stuff wasn't being re-released left & right. He even added the titles of the bonus tracks. I remember that feeling of being so excited. Dickhead....

i remember that...he really went all out with the deception...I remember thinking nothing of the reissues...it was the rarities from his collection that had me nervous...when you say you have 2 rock boulevards..one sealed...you went a bit too far...the reissues seems legit with all the info he was putting out....I really believed he was doing those...I just had originals of everything and didnt need new releases..even with bonus tracks..

    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}

    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
    • It's just not the same without the Doc though...
