XBiz has thrown its hat into the convention-throwing ring, announcing its first-annual Summer '06 Forum, an adult B2B conference to be held at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas."We ordered so many t-shirts and mousepads with 'Summer '06 Forum' on them," a company representative did not say, "that we thought it impractical to change the name should we ever throw another one."
The adult convention circuit is already crowded in the summer, with the just-announced Exxxotica Miami Beach show June 9-11, Erotica LA June 23-25, Internext in Florida in August, and Gramstock, which I just announced this very minute. Gramstock will be an opportunity for adult industry professionals to relax, network, meet new friends and maintain contact with old ones, and learn about the latest issues facing the adult industry. It will be held every day this year in the spacious bandwidth allotted by my web server.
Anyway, XBiz has inked a deal with the Hard Rock for room rates as low as $159 a night during the show, provided potential attendees do not spontaneously combust while attempting to drive there in the thousand-degree heat.
"The almost-lunar-surface heat will entice conventioneers to stay inside and listen to seminars they would normally eschew," yet another XBiz rep did not say.
