Internext Roll Call
 

About a month away, who's going?

Due to financial constraints I made the painful and sad decision not to go to Las Vegas this year. :-((

I'll be there! :pimp

Johnny G, send me an email please [email protected] or let me know how i can reach you.

I've been meaning to book that

Booked! Take my black 13 call this year :winkwink:

nope, not this time

Thinking about it. Most likely though.

I'll definitely be in the neighborhood, either at the Palms circle bar or at the tables :)

Count me in.

DTI Cash will be there. It's gonna be fun can't wait :thumbsup

Count me in!!!!

Indeed!!

mostly likely

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

We will be there.

Though I'd like to be... I won't be there.. Too Busy!!!

Janessa if you would have gotten our cross sale up when you were on Stern, Guerilla Traffic would have easily have paid for the trip.

I'll be there!

I'll put 1$ in on that bet :)

Plane ticket is all booked. See everyone on the 9th :)

i wasnt going to go, but i am now after finding a few friends will be going.

not sure about the internext pass tho. wasnt really worth it last year IMO, but I really dont like how you must have one to get into some parties

We shall be there :)

Unfortunately it's not worth it. The only reason I paid for badges this year was to be able to get past security to some of the parties. The "show floor" is only 2 HALF days and there's not much there.

A far cry from the old IA 2000 days at the Sands Expo Center with the huge booths and displays and thousands of people on the floor doing business for sure.

But yeah, the badge is only good to get you past the hotel security for a couple of parties. Not much else of value for me. I suppose it would be of some value for a newbie wanting to attend one of the seminars. But in this economy and with the piracy issue all but putting the affiliate model on life support...I don't foresee hundreds of eager new "webmasters" trying to break into the business. lol

Bottom line...get a badge if you're like me and can make a couple of deals at one of the parties. If you think you can get just as much work done at the center bar then don't bother. Keep in mind that the center bar is pretty damn expensive to drink at though. And you'll spend way more than the $150 the badge costs after just a few shots and a few beers at that bar.

Pardon me Robbie, but that gathering of business people at the round bar is only there on those particular days due to AVN putting the show on in the first place.

Encouraging people to not get a show badge is doing a disservice to the organizers of the show, who work hard at it.

wtf????? I'll take your room and tix lol you gots to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!:upsidedow

Man I had a great time last year with Dave on the tables :thumbsup

I'll be there, celebrating as usual. Celebrating what, anything..
lol..

Chris I'm not encouraging them not to.

I'm simply saying that the show doesn't offer the same value that it once did for the money. That's been a big complaint by many people over the last couple of years.

Matter of fact I would say that if a person is planning on going to Internext then they SHOULD buy the badge because it will get them to the parties (which is where the most business takes place) and as I said...the center bar at The Palms is damn expensive.

All I'm saying is that the Show Floor is not worth the money at all. So in my humble opinion AVN should get some more real value for people to attend. Last year was just really, really bad. It was like a ghost town at The Palms.

Part of that is the economy of course. But that just means that you guys are going to have to step it up to give it more value. Hopefully you did that and we'll all see it in Jan. :)

Now that I live here in Vegas, I can flat tell you that there are a LOT better places to do this at than The Palms. If it were my show we'd be doing it on Fremont St. and staying at The Gold Nugget. Rooms, drinks, shows...EVERYTHING is much less expensive and the enclosed Fremont St. with all the casinos and bands playing and walking from club to club with drinks is MUCH funner than the Strip or The Palms. But that's just my observation.

We may be there, mostly for networking this year though. :)

I'll be there.

P.S.
Robbie speaks the truth.
:2 cents:

I agree with Robbie on all points.

I've gone for the past 7 years and will no longer be attending. Last year was laughable at best. There is NO need to go to the show, do what Robbie suggests and hang out at the bar, that's where everyone goes anyway. The showroom, I hate to say, is a total waste of money. The video expo is a wash these days too.

IMHO, a porn show with no T&A is no show at all. :2 cents:

:pimp:pimp

i love Fremont St. - spent new year 2004/2005 there - great party :)

And I stayed at El Cortez - that was fucking trip - haha
