Tart's quoting you did give me an idea.....I'd be interested in co-sponsoring some sort of low-class event if you're interested in organizing it (since you're a local - lol)

I'm sure a couple of board members would chip in as well :)

I'm thinking a small friends only kinda thing...and oddly enough, most of my friends have more than 500 posts on this board :D

We could always pretend that we're "big" & make up VIP passes & have a secret location & a non-existant limo services |bananna|

Let's start with this...you know of a placve we could have a party - bar? I'd guess about 100 people (but we can put out feelers & invite lists on the board once we get moving)

BILFI hunter on the case!!

bilfi=bars i'd love to fuck in. |dizzy|

Stupidest dumbass thing to do....
I like the old way, shows overlap, but it allowed to to get around to all three shows, including CES.
Dumbass move.
But if they are in the same hall, that will at least be an improvement. might make it more "palatable."

Love vegas...would like to LIVE in vegas....

Finally, we will end up overwhelmed with consumer types on our floor, diluting the ROI for booth owners; as well as educating far too many surfers about the backend of our industry.

So perfectly said, I think it needs to be posted again.

I don't think enough thought is being put into preventing this from happening (even by most of us here). But this could indeed be a problem if what it creates is an even larger class of surfers who will (almost) never pay for porn.

On a side note, I just booked my room at the Venetian.

One of the biggest problems of not staying there, was people who didn't, had trouble getting past security and up to the smaller private parties.
I remember various people having to "call up" and have someone come down to get them. If no one came (ahem) then they were SOL.

Greenguy 2005-08-03 12:07 PM

I've been asking for 3 cards when I check in so that I can give the extra one to people that stay at other hotels :)

The "Art" of Deal!!

I guess this has been out for a while so I figure it wont hurt to post it - wondering how much stuff will change now that both the Xbiz awards and the Players Ball are going to be at WA in November instead of Vegas in Jan

Torn Rose 2005-08-09 07:41 PM

I was dead set on Vegas this year... now I am thinking of once again not going.

Erick G 2005-08-09 07:45 PM

I hate flying that far:(

From my understanding, this will NOT be the case.

The droolers (the public that attends the video show) will not be allowed into the internext show.

So I don't think your concerns are well founded.

Linkster 2005-08-10 08:18 AM

Alex - that is also the impression I got when talking with Aly - although the shows will be next to each other with the possibility of an open door between the floors - there would be some security to prevent the non-pass people getting into the Internext show, while still allowing the cross business flow

Ramster 2005-08-10 08:43 AM

Just so everyone knows I booked yesterday and the first "block" of rooms is sold out already. Can you believe that? Total crap. ANV sucks!

Now the rooms are $319 a night. I'm booked thankfully before they go to $500. LOL

Rose Tours still has rooms at the Flamingo for $169 and Imperial Palace still has rooms I hear too.
