I will say its pretty funny when I tell people who aren't in the industry that I go to these shows, they always immediately assume there is a mass amount of ass and crazy stuff going on at these events. When I have to explain to them that its relatively dull, and few to no "talent" at the events. They are always very surprised.

While I understand the purpose of the shows is for business, we also enjoy a good time, and standing around at "parties" with a buncha dudes, gets a bit old. It never quite made sense to me to require talent to pay these fee's when they aren't the ones doing the business. They are basically there for atmosphere, which is going to keep people around longer, and networking longer. I think the phoenix forum was spot on for doing drastically reduced single day rates for talent.

This also may be why the casino bars seem to be the place to be. Better atmosphere, more variety of people, and doesn't feel quite so forced.

I know 2 years ago, the closing party was basically a ghost town, it was pretty sad.
