I spoke with Kevin earlier this morning. I mentioned
that you were told your 3,500,000 would be to fund
Hamilton for an investor that never materialized. Kevin
said that was not true as they have all funds for Hamilton
yet they are not happy with some of investors that are
treating investment more like a social event rather than a
financial event. I then mentioned that you wanted to test
the waters before you invested significant funds. Kevin
replied by saying that Joe was not interested in any
investment unless it was of significant size and that he
sent you an email stating that.
I asked Kevin his involvement with Joe and he said he
has known him for a very long time. I asked if he
invested in all 22 deals over the past 24 months and he
said his first deal was this summer. It was an investment
of 500,000 in Dead and Company. He said he just made
another investment of 1,000,000 in Hamilton. When I
asked Kevin his role in the business he said he acts as an
advisor in addition to helping him source tickets.
I am unsure of your relationship with Kevin and know that you have not
asked for my opinion however i feel very uncomfortable
with both Kevin and Joe for the following reasons:
a) The story of their need for your money changes with each conversation
b) The urgency to receive 30,000,000 from you when Joe already has
50,000,000 + of tickets to sell
c) Deal Structure whereby you do not own portion of entity and would put
up money to "buy ticket allocations" seems strange and
like a bit of a ponzi sheme
d) Lack of Transparency with Joe
e) Quick read of google (which we know is not always true..) states that Joe
did similar stuff in 2008 and lost somewhere between 18-
30mm for Edgar Bronfinan
I have a friend in the business who just sold his company GoViva to CAA
that i can use to meet with Joe to further vet if you
would like

This is like a Ripley's Believe it or Not.
Believe it or not, Bulldog Entertainment may be back. The talk this weekend
in the Hamptons was that concert promoter Joe Meli,
not content to have masterminded a huge colossal
magnificent failure last summer with his $15,000-a-ticket
concert series, is cooking up something new.
The word around town is that Meli is trying to orchestrate at least two new
Hamptons shows this summer with big ticket prices. The
names being bandied about are Lionel Richie, possibly
for July 5, and Lenny Kravitz, for the end of August.
In case you've forgotten, Moll was the guy behind Social @ Ross last
summer. He staged five shows - Billy Joel, Prince,
Dave Matthews, James Taylor and Tom Petty — on
the grounds of the tony Ross private school. Meli's plan
was to charge $3,000 a ticket for each show, or $15,000
for the whole thing per person. Each act was to receive
$1 million or more for the show.
The shows happened, but the audiences got thinner and thinner. Meli lost his
shirt, but not before taking Warner M. Group's Edgar
Bronfman Jr. with him for an estimated loss of $30
million. WMG's involvement was largely a secret until it
was revealed in their SEC report the following quarter.

EFTA02066273
Meli's Bulldog Entertainment still has a Web site that lists Atlantic Records, a
division of WMG, as its phone number and address.
Bulldog also has two other phone numbers, one in New
York and in L.A., both of which are disconnected.
I'm told that Meli met with some people in the music biz over the weekend to
discuss all of this. "The concerts would be on someone's
estate, very private and exclusive," one source said,
"Very different than last year."

In the latest of a string of strategic moves focused on live entertainment,
Barclays Center's Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment has
launched Brooklyn Direct, a new programming division
designed to work directly with agents and managers to
book events by artists not on tour for Barclays Center
and other venues, Billboard has learned.
Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark says that, while promoters have been
"very supportive" of Barclays Center, "given the cyclical
nature of the touring business, we've decided as a
company to be a little more aggressive in the direct
business."
Brooklyn Direct will be based in Manhattan and led by its Chief Content
Officer Joe Meli, formally an independent promoter and
a senior VP for Warner Music Group.

Richard,
Ive copied Joe Meli the
CEO of Advance
Entertainment here who
would be the best person to
review this with you. I am
merely an investor in
Advance and silent

through all the granular
detail and has met JE with
me previously on a former
opportunity.
I'll leave it to Joe to
respond to you here.
