Ky is thinking of going to ShoWest Monday for the Idependent Film Seminar. I think I will go for Tuesday/Wednesday for the Trade-Show.

What do you know about cheap hotels around Bally's? We won't be staying at the Paris.

Ian-

If you are going to Showest, you must grab and send me all the crap you can. In return, I will send you a Neumade splicer. E-mail me for details if you are interested.

As far as cheap hotels go, if you don't mind taking a shuttle bus to the convention center, the Excalibur usually has very good rates. I believe the last time I stayed there it was around $60. They also have the customary $5 prime rib dinner and great breakfast

I plan to arrive early Monday afternoon, and leave Friday morning. I'll be participating in the Kodak seminar, the Inter-Society meeting and the SMPTE meetings on Projection Technology (P3) and Digital Cinema (DC28). As usual, I'll also be visiting the trade show floor as much as possible.

Unfortunately I am missing it this year. I am going to have my head and the rest of me up in the rafters for a few weeks installing some new lighting and sound system. Trying to get ready to do some live shows. But I do agree that what this world needs is an annual Film Tech convention and beer fest. And DEFINATELY trash at least one SDDS.
