What Is Your Best Memory Of Being At A Convention?
 
Well I just thought that I would start another thread on something I found most people enjoy attending and always willing to "kiss and tell" about...
What is your best or perhaps wildest memory from attending an adult convention or gathering?

Keep on Rockin'

Hey dude, dont do much posting anymore since about 1999. Found that it's easier to just call......hahahah.

My best moments was with you at the Florida Internext Expo this year.
Kissing that girl getting body painted was fucking great. Afterwards, I said your pretty hot girl. She said tell that to my husband. He's sitting right there......fuck me!!

Funny shit,

However, Dabro!
Would have fucked her anyway......

One of my best memories of a show would probably be Adultdex 99...
It was held at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. I was with some people on the casino floor and just for a laugh on my way out the door, I put a dollar in a slot machine and won 98 dollars. :)
I never win! So that was a total fluke!

Aly 11-09-2002 12:33 PM

I'm at Magick and Bob's this weekend. She just told me a really sweet story of her first convention - Vegas '99. When she arrived in the lobby of the hotel, about 25 co-workers and such were there to meet her. Ain't that sweet! It usually takes me the first two days to track down any of my crew! Ha!

:worthy:

My Best memories , are still from the 99 Show in Montreal, the Party at the Hard Rock! It was my first Show , like your first girl, its what memories are made of ! :boobies:

Dabro 11-09-2002 08:35 PM

Oh yeah that was a good year.
 
Damm it seems that 99 was the year for kick ass parties.

Let's make 2003 even fucking better.

Evil Chirs, 98 dollars is 98 dollars. Nice work for a buck.

Last time at Wiskey Petes at stateline, I won triple 7's three times on the same machine for $400.00 dollars each. I thought it's on.
Went into Vegas and never won again. They were waiting for me.....hahahah

It was fun anyway.

Walking around the show floor with my name badge facing forward; hearing "hey, I know her" out of the back of my head

Masters 11-09-2002 11:34 PM

As for me, I gave this some long hard thought and keep coming up with so many good memories that I can't single just one out.

My favorite was was the first show in Miami, can't remember the name of that hotel, yet after being in the business for a couple years prior, it was the 1st time I actually came out in public to meet the people I saw posting on the boards. It was an amazing show for me and made me realize how into the business and nice everyone was

Another would be at AdultDex in New Orleans when Dokk actually interviewed me live on the air... though the interview only lasted a few minutes it was the best few minutes I had and best of all, the best opportunity to spend time with an pioneer...Dokk!

Again another would be when I talked my way up into JoeE's suite in New Orleans (a different show from the one above) and got to know him better which actually led to my, over two year, employment as director of sales with CEN. I am grateful for JoeE for having enough faith in me to allow me that opportunity and of course his partner for having the faith in me to do a good job as well.

In my opinion JoeE is a good man with a big heart and is one of the best and finest marketers I've met to date not to mention people as well.

One more would be the show before last in Vegas when I spent most of my nights with SweetT (National Net)and his crew partying out on the town... Sweet T and his crew are first class people to say the least.

There are tons more yet those are the ones that happen to stick out at this moment.

Keep on Rockin'

StuartD 11-09-2002 11:41 PM

Hm... I've only ever been to the Westcoast Webmasters convention... this past July.
I still a tad wet behind the ears in the adult biz... and last year, I wasn't exactly the best person in the company to go... considering I had been there for like.. 2 months.

But anyway, now I am all set, and heading to Vegas in January.

So for a best memory... well, that still has yet to be determined... I look forward to making a lot of great memories :D

Sharpie 11-10-2002 11:33 AM

I am glad that many of you have good memories of some of my past shows. I really like the middle type show. Enough people and time, to do some really good business and yet, not the over crowding and a million people you don't know or never heard of. (and not sure you want to)

One of my best memories was on the last night of the New Orleans show in Nat Net Suite (more like a nightclup atop the hotel) I walked in the room and Dokk was spinning tunes and MFold was on the dance floor by himself. Deciding that it was time to let my hair down, I joined him. It was a very, very, long song and in the middle MFold decided to "moon" everyone. Thank god there were no cameras around...:-) It was one of those "you just had to be there" things.

As a reminder, online signups close Sunday. The script will come down around noon on Monday. Online it is $99, at the door it is $125. 'Ya snooze, ya lose"

Funbrunette 11-10-2002 12:41 PM

Well, I ALWAYS so much fun at shows! I meet new people and manage to get in trouble each time! I LOVE IT!!!! :angel:

erika 11-10-2002 01:20 PM

Sharpie,
I was at that party up top floor that NatNet threw... It was a great one as Sweet T always knows how to throw a party. I also remember MFold on the dance floor but wasn;t it you that mooned everyone? ...lol, j/k

You know I love you and Dave, you are both great people. Your shows rock, and every CyberNet Expo show I attended, I always walked away with some good business deals.

Keep on Rockin'

Sharpie 11-10-2002 10:42 PM

"Keep on rockin" - yes, that is a dead giveaway! You just wait!!:p

twinkley 11-11-2002 09:36 AM

Hmmmm.... my favorite convention experience....

Thats really hard because every convention has at least 10 completely unforgettable moments in time....

My first show pre-show party - I walk into the Nat Net Suite (before they moved it to the top floor) with Oz, Buran and Stephen. In somewhat of a daze, I walk around, introduce myself to a few people, try to fight my way through to the bar and back to where the guys are. All of a sudden this big beautiful blonde guy GRABS my arm, turns me around, hands me a shot, clicks my glass and says "cheers'! Stunned, I do the shot (it was whiskey ewwwww!) I must have made a horrible face because he laughed, picked me up in this big bear hug and introduced himself as YNOTBob.


Oh oh oh ... okay, this one is kinda funny/embarrassing ....

Same show, New Orleans Cybernet I go out with RRRed and a bunch of other people in a limo (my first time in a limo!) ... we are cruisin the town and people are being introduced around.

We stop and pick up this guy and a couple of chicks and I dont even remembernow who introduced me, but the guy we picked up was RB from MaxCash. I was completely flabbergasted.

This was the first "name" I had really heard in entering the biz and here I was cruisin around in a limo with him!! I called another friend whose first show it was and was like "you are NEVER going to believe this!!" RB grabs the phone, asks who he is talking to, tells them to get in a cab and come down to this bar we were just stopping at. He then hands me back the phone after talking for a few more minutes.

RB must have thought that I was a complete idiot, because the entire time I was in the limo I was just like "duuuuuuuuh, your RB!" hahahahahahahaha

Needless to say, I got over my hero worship of the "names" in this biz fairly quickly..... I found they are people just like us, but with more money hehehehehe

Sharpie,
I knew you'd get it... Say hi to Dave for me and a big HUG & KISS to you. See ya' both soon

Twinkley,
At my first show in Miami, way back when, one mornin' I caught a ride in a limo over to the convention where the show was being held. Little that I knew that Aly & RB were in the same limo... it was MaxCash's limo...

Unfortunately I found this out about a year later... lol


Keep on Rockin'

twinkley 11-12-2002 10:04 AM

This thread makes me very nostalgic....

I have had SO MANY great experiences because of this industry and the people in it. I have done things and been places I never would have dreamed of doing. I have been in a helicopter race, climbed waterfalls, been to some of the hottest clubs on earth (and walked past the line at the door) met movie stars, comidians, music stars. Hell, I have heard snoop Dogg play live twice, and Digital Underground at least 3 times! I have been too Las Vegas so many times I complain about it. But really, I am always very happy because I *can* go!

It's amazing - I have friends all over the world now. Going on a trip? Just put out a call to the boards to see who your gonna be partying with there!

It's pretty damn cool :)

Okay, well, now that Im done with my little rant, I suppose I should get back to work hehe

MarkTiarra 11-13-2002 03:15 PM

That would have to be staying up with Mike and Lisa at the hot tub in Holywood Fl. They were in the water and I was playing guitar for them, trying to stay awake until my train came at 7am. =] It was day one of a friendship that changed my life. =]

Masters 11-13-2002 05:08 PM

Mark,
Hey bro great to see you out and about. Thanks for stopping in :)
Those tours you made really kick a*^ man and are converting great.
I'll be sending more work your way for sure.

Twinkley, Great stories and though I haven't done as much as you... I have done more than I normally would have not being in this business.
Your stories are great and well described.

Just as you, one of the best parts I like about the business is all the great people you meet and the open ending and minded attitude they have.


Oh, btw... you really sound great on pillow talk... You put on a great show!

Keep on Rockin'

MarkTiarra 11-14-2002 01:44 AM

Hey thanks Masters. =] NIce to se you here too. Good addition to a kind and friendly board that isn't cluttered with wank. =]

Masters 11-15-2002 12:23 AM

Thanks Mark,
I remember when I first met you. It was at the Miami show years ago. I happen to run into you on the showroom floor and after that it seemed like we keep bumping into each other quite a few times afterwards.

What a show that was. First time I did an interview live online with AVN. I believe that was actually the last privately owned show before AVN took the operation and rights over. From there it just boomed into a more massive sized show with AVN in charge.

Anyway, I met allot of good people at that show, which most all of them are still around and our paths have crossed many times since then with quite a few of them.

Keep on Rockin'

MarkTiarra 11-15-2002 12:31 AM

Ahhh yes, back in the day when I was running around trying to get people together on one legal issue or another. It's MUCH nicer just doing designs for people now. I loved helping people, but it got overwhelming. Now I just help them get rich instead. =]

The last Internext show in vegas, my friend who i went with shows up back at the room at 9:30am, with his pants ripped on the inner seam from one ankle all the way up and down the other leg to the knee. All he remembers is walking around without his shoes on in the parking garage of the imperial palace, then waking up in a room that he purchased around 4am (we were staying at ceasars). also he said at some point security at the imperial palace returned his shoes to him from the parking garage. we don't know what happened to this day. :glugglug:

Masters 11-22-2002 09:03 AM

pornJester,
I hear ya... I've had a few wild experiences of my own...
Like the time I passed flat out on the floor at one particular party at the Mirage.

No drinks at all that niight... it was due to claustrophobia and hypoglycemia...


That knocked me out for 2 days afterwards...


Keep on Rockin'
