Webmasters & Webmistresses,
EroticaFest will go into the history books as one of THE most ambitious and over-the-top productions in our industry - problems and margin of error come with the territory.
Multiple security meetings were held prior to the event, the challenges we faced post "show time" were not within GigaCash's control. Although the VAST majority got in without a problem, security was tighter with the dress code than we had been told and although we had 1200 webmasters rockin' at the party, the crowd flow (an enormous turnout due to heavy marketing) could have been smoother and we would have preferred to do without breaches of contract by venue management.
From all the face-to-face feedback we received, everyone at the show was totally blown away by the production and had a complete blast.
I was speaking to someone about all the hard work that goes into putting together an event of this scale and how its tough to measure a return (as the producer) not to mention putting yourself out there to be criticized if all elements don't go as planned, and was asked if we'd do it all over again if we went back in time, and my answer was "HELL YES!" - because although it wasn't a perfect production, at the end of the night we delivered the main elements of the party - this was one Godzilla of an event (which takes quite a set of balls to undertake on the part of the producers) and we threw an unforgettable party for the vast majorty of our attendees (including the biggest players in the biz), and I am proud of this accomplishment.
Our sincere apologies go out to those affected by the venue's security, and am sure you understand that such problems can be at times out of the producer's control, especially at "big city" night clubs.
My team strived for perfection and although there was an internal "let down" which caused certain issues that were avoidable, my team deserves all the credit in the world for all the things that went RIGHT.
I want to thank all of you for coming out to the show - and thanks to all of you who came up to me to personally congratulate and give raving remarks.
As always I enjoy reading feedback on our controversial events, so post away!
Here's a snapshot i took of you guys when I was up on stage introducing AAF, am sure most of you will remember the moment - as they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
Adios
p.s. Look out for more pics and videos from the event on this thread in coming days!!
Thanks JFK..
