Official Players Ball thread ? Thank You?s & Reviews (feedback & PICS welcomed)
Well, I predicted before this Players Ball that it would be the most well received Players Ball yet. It?s hard to say one Ball is better then another, it?s like having kids. How can you pick a favorite? They each take on a life of their own, each are special for different reasons. Here?s what made this Players Ball extra special.
The sponsors were the most important part. Without their support, these parties won?t happen. So I?ll thank each sponsor later in this. Lot?s to mention.
The venue was one of the best ones yet. We changed venues 3 times in the final few weeks, it wasn?t easy to pull off. Everything does work out for the best and we found a perfect home for the Players Ball. As long as they don?t go out of business, we?re going back there again. That?s IF I go back to Vegas to throw another Players Ball. I?d really like to support the Phoenix Forum and throw a Players Ball there. Internext kicked us out of our sponsors booth, so they made it clear they could care less if we come back to Internext. Big mistake. For a hurting trade show, you?d think they would be open arms to a party scene at their show. It was the only good thing people are talking about. So when their parties totally disappear, what would they have left? Phoenix Forum is just a few weeks after Internext next year, it?s already pretty clear the people have made their choice. Phoenix it is.
Who knows, I might just throw a Players Ball in Vegas at a time of year without a trade show in town. The security staff was beefed up and very good. We had 3 times the normal amount of security working in that club and they were great. But the greatest was one of our own, Anthony. He really made a huge sacrifice to make sure our players got right in. It worked and I hope we can get him to do it again sometime. Amazing job!
The performances were absolutely amazing. DJ Clinton Sparks started off the night. The worlds #1 mixtape DJ was off the hook! Then we did the Woody Awards, had a great amount of winners accept their awards, great to see. Then George Clinton and P-Funk were absolutely amazing. I?ve seen them probably 20 or so times in my life and this was one of their best performances ever. They created the perfect vibe for our event. Laid back and cool. They played for hours. DJ Evan was great, my co-host KB was on it, we had big time PLAYERS in the house. What a great time. Then we had an after hours party in that club with a big time DJ, Big Bad Bill.
OK, going to thank all of the sponsors in a second, let me grab that list.
