I have my fingers crossed... think you might be right. I have to be honest - when I go it's for business. The last two or three Vegas shows I only went off-site maybe once per show. Maybe I'm boring, whatever, what I do know is I like a good venue and I like to see only industry people - I can give fuck all about everything else when I'm traveling for business. This is the reason I think the August Internext and Phoenix Forum are the years two most productive shows - they have the whole venue. The last couple of shows in Vegas (not including XBiz, I really liked that) were absolute cluster fucks where you couldn't find anyone, you couldn't get a damned dinner reservation, you couldn't help but be annoyed by the sea of non industry people.... and frankly, after seeing the joke of a show floor most felt quite ass-raped about what they paid for their show badge.

I'm excited to see what AVN does this January, I suspect they've learned quite a bit from the frank feedback they've received in recent past and definitely appreciate the innovation of the other conferences competing for attendees.
