Steve thanks for the feedback.

I know there were tv screens and neon signage with the details for the events being held at the Mandalay Bay however as i mentioned earlier, you had to wait almost 5 minutes before the details came on the screens :(

This has been addresses and should be rectified by the next Vegas show :)

Sorry that we missed you :(

Regards,

Lee,

You guys did a great job and kudos well deserved.

Can I make one point that as a sponsor I believe you gave EVERYONE so much airplay with your work before the event, no-one was in doubt who was involved, and you did it putting yourself in the background. Noted and appreciated ;-)

OK, some great points made above, and there may be some repetition, but if it was me......

1. Same hotel is obviously primo, but reasons this time MORE than understood.

2. Suite available from lunchtime onwards (say from 12pm to 3pm or so) with tea/coffee light snacks for sponsors to bring bring small numbers of guests and/or mingle with each other in an "away from the show" environment (discussed before the show in another thread).

3. Do away with formal meals and have light fingerfood and cocktail hour from say 5pm to 7pm nightly - no clashes with anything else - again for sponsors and small numbers of invited guests.

4. Change NOTHING about the after hours suite (except the balcony / smoking room as suggested - and that comes from a self-admitted heavy smoker!!!), except maybe some more light snacks and stuff. They were the highlight of the Internext experience.

I actually like the fact that people had to ask where and when and why - I personaly brought lots of people to the after hours who would NEVER have gone to a gay party before. As sponsors we also have to pitch in on appropriate "promotion", IMHO.

That's my 2c for now.. more soon ;-)

Loved the luncheon, darling. Thanks so much to you, GA, and all the sponsors for putting these events together. I loved taking a breather from the convention, and spending a little quality time with some of my favourite people.

One thing I ran into was that when it came time for the lunch I couldn't remember or figure out where the heck it was! Rainey came to the rescue of my frazzled mind though... Thanks Rainey! :biker:

yes my phone turned into the GWB Hotline... =)
