Urgent your help needed

noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:14 PM 1st let me say this is not a scam. My name is Lance B. Woolie. Yesterday, my girlfriend (Sandra Diaz Gonzalez) was diagnosed with cancer, she is in Bogota, Colombia. She is having surgury in 2 weeks. I want to go see her before her surgury, but I dont think I can come up with the money for the plane ticket. The only income I have right now is the CD's I sell from our band NoimportantE. So if you know anyone who likes original rock music. Please send them to the website www.noimportante.com, they can download songs for free, if they like it they can buy the CD online. Every cent I make (from these cd's) is going to help pay my plane ticket and maybe some flowers for her. I have to raise $960.00. Im not asking you for money, I would never do that, but if you could, please forward this to your buddies. Thank you so much. By the way, the CD just came out 2 weeks ago, and it really is good. Don't believe me, listen to the songs, so its worth the money. Lance B. Woolie www.noimportante.com noimportante.dmusic.com
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:21 PM Not only does it sound like a scam, it also sounds like the start of a pyramid marketing scheme. Really, if this is completley important to you to go see her, you should hit up your FAMILY for money. If it feels too much like leaching to you, then you can consign out your CD's to them.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:43 PM SQRLCUB , this is really serious and your grudge against me should not have anything to do with this thread, I don't have any family. My only family was killed in a car accident when I was 15 that was my brother. Seriously, just leave me alone. Im not in the mood to squabble with you. Lance
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:45 PM For those who asked. Heres a picture of me and sandra... http://www.noimportante.com/resources/sandra/sandra_SandraandLance.jpg
Dexter	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:45 PM It sounds like a scam to me. The reason being you released your cd on April 15th. The next day you went to tour Colombia. You are currently booking shows in South America. Which if I remember correctly is where you'll find Colombia. It appears then that you are able to find the money to get their for gigs otherwise you wouldn't be taking bookings. TTFN.

blubat	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:50 PM I ferret there is right didnt you just pay out the ass for your producer...but you dont have 960? sell some of your equipment...ask your band mates..
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:50 PM It's the boy who cried wolf syndrome. You flooded this website with spam and when you were called out you changed your tune. It is really low to try to hock your CD's using a (probably contrived) illness of a loved one. Not only does it make me not want to help you out at all, it makes me want to actively tell people who mention your name that you are slime.
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:52 PM Of course, I would never talk to anyone about you unless they brought it up first, that would actually be an advertisement for you.
lafabrica	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:52 PM Hey Lance, is this the same Sandra that was with you in radio 88.9? She is wonderful person. for this is terrible. Lance is a good man, he never try to trick you. I will buy one. Why is everyone so gross with you Lance.
Dexter	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 4:57 PM I wouldn't say I was being "gross" with him. It's just the information he presents us with here throws up some questions when you read them in conjunction with his journal. That's all. TTFN.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:03 PM Diana, yes this is her. You don't have to defend me, they won't listen to you. They don't like me because I am an asshole. Its my own fault. But really that was before. rhthesinner- I'm 6gs in the hole plain and simple. And just because you book shows in South America doesn't mean you make money. They don't pay much in venues in Colombia. I think hard rock cafe paid us 250,000 pesos for playing. Thats a hundred bucks. Wipped ti doo. All of the money we made down there was from cd sales and it all went to pay for the trip, studio times, and expenses. Stop breakin my balls. Music isnt about the money, right. I do it because I love it, not because it makes me money. Sure if I can get paid, Im down for that. But generaly untill your a national act, or have damn good management, you spend more than you make. SQRLCUB- why dont you send me your address so we can talk face to face. It be realy nice to me someone like you..

noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:08 PM If you dont believe me then move on. This is a serious post about a real person. Don't take out your hate for me, on her. Hate me all you want in the other posts, this one is for Sandra. OK. Thank you for respecting that.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:09 PM zipcode please, do you have an apartment Number?
Dexter	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:09 PM I'm not breaking anyone's balls here. I'm nice me. I was just pointing out an anomally. TTFN.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:10 PM Ok bush see you there
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:15 PM I don't hate you at all. I think you are a loser, but that is far and away from hate. If you really needed to get there right away you surely would have friends (well, not really judging by your attitude...honestly you having a girlfriend surprises me because of said attitude) who could help you out. This doesn't look like anything other than a ploy. Not only is it too convenient for you to try to sell off your CD's, it also looks like a modified form of Guerilla Marketing (a book by Jay Levinson). Basically, you try to get people to spread your name and you do whatever it takes to get people to talk about you good or bad. When you have a name out there you can hock your product, simple as that. He didn't say that if you try to hock your name for bad (like saying your wife, girlfriend, mother, etc are dying or such) that this tactic often backfires. Especially if you come in here completely focused and trolling your name around using whatever you think will get people to listen. Hell, even when people were nice to you, you got all snippety for no real reason.
Dexter	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:17 PM "All of the money we made down there was from cd sales and it all went to pay for the trip" So - how did you get there in the first place? And if you are "6gs in the hole plain and simple" how do you intend to get to South America for the gigs you are currently planning? I repeat - I am not breaking anyone's balls here. If it sounds like a scam it's because of the information you are presenting us with that I have qouted. I have had 3 family members pass away in the past year so I know what a serious illness can do to the afflicted's loved ones. If this is not a scam - choose your words and present the case more carefully because you certainly do not need the hassle that this thread appears to be causing you. TTFN.

Cryxan	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:28 PM Whether it's true or not, you sure worded it like it was a scam, so I doubt many will believe you.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:36 PM I see your point SQRLcub, but whateva. And your address is BS. You are a cold hearted bastard. And you have no soul. We paid for our original trip ourselves. WE saved money and used the cheese from the cd release to fund it. The gigs we are planning now are sponsered events, with like 10k people, but they are later this year, this is an immediate need. I can't wait on those gigs. Her surgury is 2 weeks from today. Look for all future posts, you shouldnt even need to post anything here. If you wanna help buy a cd, if not move on. Your wasting your time proving points, you wanna argue with me lets go to another forum. just not here. This is for Sandra she is a wonderful woman, and all she wants is me to be with her, and I promised her I would do all I could, shameless or not.

sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:39 PM Lance Woolie 11145 Darryl Drive Baton Rouge, LA 70815 UNITED STATES 225-336-0844 Is yours?
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:39 PM Because I used the words (this is not a scam)? How would you have worded it? Why do I even try...............
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:40 PM Wow your smart you can go to my website! Tanks for adding to my couter idiot...
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:41 PM That's not why I thought it was a scam. I thought it was a scam since the local homeless here tell stories exactly like that. "I only need $1 for the bus/train ride," "I'm not scamming you, but I need 5 bucks for gas I'll pay you back," etc.
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:42 PM Actually, I wouldn't go to your website. I looked it up on a domain name search to see who your website was registered to. It's fast, easy, and free.
Dexter	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:44 PM I believe Cryxan was referring to the whole post - not just that one sentence. I had 3 emails like this alone in the past 2 weeks - so expect people to be sceptical. I'ts the way of the world I'm afraid. TTFN.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:52 PM Well I am just trying to do something, didnt mean to make it sound like a scam. Actualy SQRLcub brought it up. I think hes in love with me. His last 20 forum posts were my threads bitchin at me. Ok OK I love you Sqrlcub. Now leave me alone. PLease, I wish Dmusic had restraining orders.
noimportante	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 5:53 PM he brought up the word "scam"
sqrlcub	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 6:37 PM You should also shop around for your plane ticket. Assuming you are in Baton Rouge, you can get the ticket through Air Gorilla for as low as 675 bucks to Bogata, Columbia; 853 through Cheap Tickets; 806 through Orbitz; 875 through expedia; etc. All of those claim to include all taxes and fees.
figfarmer	Date: May 5, 2004 @ 9:01 PM Hey. I hope she gets well. Peace.
blubat	Date: May 6, 2004 @ 8:17 AM if you have all these big shows planned in the future then you will haveno problem getting a loan and paying it off...do that. nice and easy...you cant raise 960$ in cd sales in 2 weeks dont kid yourself. if this was important hell you would take the bus...or hitchike there...this sounds like a ploy

Sandra says thank you as well...You guys are better men than I ...
sqrlcub	Date: May 6, 2004 @ 4:00 PM That's a start. I think you will find most people are pretty forgiving when you seem like you are sincere.
cryo-e	Date: May 6, 2004 @ 4:57 PM Something not quite right here. http://lfab.dmusic.com/ - Lance a.k.a. lafabrica http://noimportante.dmusic.com/ - Lance a.k.a. noimportante now if it is true, and u both have the same name, I do apologise for being suspicious, but if this is a scam then u r sick. I have watched 2 members of my family die from this evil disease, and it upsets me to think that people can use things like this to get money out of people (which by the way is why I never do give money to individuals, although I do have some Direct Debits set up to charities that I know put the money to good use).
noimportante	Date: May 6, 2004 @ 11:34 PM Kudos Cryo-e you do your homework.. BUsted. HEheh. No, I set up the account for Lafabrica (Cali, Colombia), Los Tulipanes (Argentina), & Amorbuda (Argentina). Dmusic isnt in Spanish, so they needed help. These are groups I met in South America on tour. They are trying to break into the states. They are helping me in South America, and I am helping them here. They are really great groups, and we all have a common goal. But great work Cryo-E. You should be a hacker or somethin. Thanks Sqrlcub, I checked out the sites, I'l get my ticket tommorow. I really appreciate it dude.
