You don't even remember who I am, do you?
Have we meet? I don't recall, no.

Advice
I'm not offering advice on things I don't know. You asked a question, and I replied to it. The theatre we use (you can call them and inquire about that if you like) meets the specifications I provided to you in a previous post.

Name me one recent post where I have offered advice on something I don't know about? I don't mean from the last 5 years either, because I have grown up a little since then.

Honestly, I don't know why I even bother coming here...

It's just pretty darn annoying to come on here looking for advice about something from other theater people only to have someone trying to blow smoke up your tailpipe.

There are real people here from real theaters making decisions involving real, if modest, amounts of money.

This has been a fairly interesting little spat.  How about one of you filling in the blanks?  No fair fighting publicly without us all knowing the details.

Don't trust any financial or legal advice you read here without checking with someone reliable.

This kid was on here a couple of years ago with a different account saying he was the "Executive Director" of the "Broadway Entertainment Company" and that he was producing nationwide tours of Annie and Little Princess. 

He fooled me then, too.

He's got a long internet track record.

For example, check out the press release below from last year:

I'm opening August 4 so I'm going to have to be out of here again.

Sorry to get hot under the collar.

"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Moonlight Media (formerly Firestorm Features) announced today its plan to become a publicly traded company by the end of 2009. Landon Parks, President & CEO of the company stated today “Going public will allow us to broaden our reach for capital investment”. Parks estimates the expense to do the Initial Public Offering will be in the range of $50,000 - $100,000. Parks assured investors who already own stock in the company that the expense should be justified by the ability to reach more investment capital. “By doing the IPO now, we can increase our operating capital, so as to have access to better quality product to bring to the market”, Parks said.

According to Parks, the initial direct public offering will be made for $5,000,000 in capital. The company will be quoted over the counter on either "Pink Sheets QX™" or "OTCBB™", since the company does not yet qualify for trading on NASDAQ™. Parks stated that the process is still being worked out, and that the end of year date is when they intent to have all financial reports submitted to the SEC. Actual time-frame for receiving public status could be an additional 5 – 9 months.

More details of the IPO will be made available once the exact details of the bid have been worked out.

Sincerely,
Donna Abbot – Moore,
Public Relations Director,
Moonlight Media

About Moonlight Media: Moonlight Media (formerly Firestorm Features), is a media company that specializes in motion picture production & distribution, as well as several online services related to the film industry.

Your point being? What is that press release suppose to state?
YES - That was me. YES - that was one of my many "ventures" that never really took off. Last I checked, it was not illegal to try and fail at something, although I guess to jayzehr its the opposite. I never lied and said I GOT $5,000,000. I did attempy to get $5,000,000, even so far as filing with the state of Indiana under the Score offering for the corporation. No one bought shares - so sue me.

What does that have to do with what advice I offer? PS - I always include a disclaimer stating that any advice I offer is not legal or professional advice if I am replying to a sensitive subject.

Last I checked, providing my opinion on something was protected under the constitution, rather you like what I offer or not.

PROVE that any of the advice I have offered is false. Bet you cant. If you don't like me that's fine, but you don't need to disclaim any advice I offer as false unless you have proof its false.

Oh, and PS - I'm not a Kid.

I give up. You guys can have this forum. If no one want's my advice, they wont get it. They can take all the professional advice from jayzehr since he clearly is the only one who is experienced enough to offer an opinion on anything.

davidmichaelmax - what evidence? He provided a press release, that by the way, was not false.

I suppose you think this company I have now is all smoke and mirrors? Perhaps you would like to contact our board of directors? how about our associate artistic director, house manager or marketing director? Perhaps you want to call our venues to inquire into our booking (although that would make you look rather odd). Either way, I don't care. you don't want what little advice I can offer from what little experience I do have in theatre, fine.

PS) This is getting really annoying. I keep getting emails every 5 minutes from this post and it's taking my professional time away from planning The boxcar Children (which, by the way, is cast, royalties paid, venue secured and costume work began last week on).

Also;
You should only have to pay unrelated business tax if that income is more than 33.3% of your total yearly income. In other words, if your total revenues are $100,000 and only $10,000 is from ad sales, you should not need to pay unrelated business income tax on these. It has to be a substantial income in order for the IRS to require payment of the tax.
