If you have encountered Harry Keanes Websites. Note the following: The websites make big promises of fame and fortune, $1,000, 000 contracts, 1 year tours, with famous people, National Television Contracts, Big Stars as guests, Co-producers with some unusual experience.
Nu Vista Studios: A nice website with entrancing music appears to have a legit entry. Note, it will direct you to a variety of webpages that are not currently updated. This is a good excuse, but the phone number on the website is still current.
1st Warning Sign: Nu Vista Studios has a P.O. Box Number for an address.
2nd Warning Sign: Repeated phrases when trying to find new or indepth info. This definately a sign of a shallow organization when it can tell you more than its moto and desire to help the needy and love the children.
3rd Warning Sign: Look up the phone on Google in Quotes "Phone Number" Keane. He reuses his phone numbers and all residual sites and ads. People are still contacting him and he convinces them that a new and great opportunity is happening around the corner. He is getting a national following of people wanting the big break.
4th Warning Sign: The original notice for Nu Vista Studios shared the same phone number as the Garland Opry advertisement. Nu Vista Studios was started within the Volunteer organization's facility rent free.
5th Warning Sign: Asking for funds through a paypal account on a separate website as well on the Garland Opry website. Paypal accounts are another method to milk money from the public if they are that desperate to help a Poor Cons Cause.
6th... The decision to end the history of the Opry made it volnurable to con artist's dream. Review the history of the organization and learn more about its background before begining to be involved even as a volunteer.

Harry reads the news for these opportunities. He didn't even show up in the area until this news was announced.
Harry learned that LeaAnn Rymes and Two of the Dixie Chick's came from the Garland Opry and leveraged that in his promises to have them at the opening shows.
He manages to get a partner who is desperate for fame and sentiment for the Opry. They set up the circumstances and volunteers and place the adds for the shows.in this link 3 back to back ads are placed (did the Opry pay for the NuVista Ad?). A private organization getting an ad paid for by a 501 (3) (c) organization?

He attempted to change the bi-laws to have him as the Executive Director of the Volunteer organization. The NuVistaStudios website at the "About" tab announces this at the right as a news item for the date of (5.20.08) or May 20th.
What does this do? In his words, it allows him to have the status like a preacher who is funded by the nonprofit organzation. He does not like to hear that his Country Singer stated as his partner. He likes to hear that his country singer works for him. He likes to correct the President or Executive Director is that only recognized authority of the organizations the rest are volunteers.
Harry met a country singer and convinced him to be a partner. The country singer gave his money into the deal and Harry? I do not know the details there. I do know that Harry didn't like the word partner within this Nonprofit organization. He liked the word President or Executive Director of Garland Opry and GMC. The nonprofit organization gave Harry an opportunity to learn how organizers of nonprofits are supported with a salary.
Beware of Harry and any nonprofit that is desperate for a revival in these times.
