Glad you had a great time, partically on my penny. Not that I could go and enjoy any of it myself.

I guess CCBill could start qualifying attendees by the size of their processing or their Alexa rankings, and making it one person per website unless they were an event sponsoring company.

If I were in charge of AVN and I were out to make a profit, I'd charge more than 250.

The last non-adult show I went to in LA was a DRM conference. It was 1400 bucks for 3 days or 500 for each day. This included a crappy lunch but no dinners, no parties, no free drinks.

Anyone that can't afford to pay 250 bucks to come to the AVN show, shouldn't be there. This will save some companies thousands in NOT doing a booth but simply paying the price of admission for their reps.

There are still plenty of sponsorship opportunities out there, and I'm sure someone has already been smart enough to sponsor the toilet paper... of course that would have been the first thing I'd have gone after.

Tofu and I talked about this a number of times over the weekend but this was the event that brought back my 'luster' for this industry. It was worth the flight from London and frankly as much as I enjoyed Vegas in the past if I had to pick one it would be this Pheonix Forum any time.

I liked the venue, I liked the area and I liked that it had a levelling feel where the 'big' guys weren't to far removed from the people at other levels so eventually they would meet. Also, not to sound bad about this board, but there was for sure a bit less of a 'GFY feel' to the event than say, Vegas.

As far as being burnt goes? Try being an already pale person that is used to UK weather. I am seriously pink and that is is WITH spf 40 sunblock.

As I said to Tofu the one day 'sometimes it sucks being white'.
