LDI '09 Meet-up and Discussion

[Kelite]

Since the LDI tradeshow has been named Lighting Dimensions International, I've posted this question in the lighting area of the ControlBooth.
[Edit by Mod: Thread moved, with expiring redirects, to "News" for maximum exposure. After the event, we can move it back to "Lighting" if so warranted.]

Does anyone attending LDI Nov. 20-22 feel like a meet & greet? We've gotten together in the past, so now seems like a good time to ask-

Who are you, and what are your thoughts?

[dramatech]

I will be there, and have no plans for which day or days, As I only live 40 miles away I am flexible to almost any plans. Might be nice to meet some folks that I only know them by their posts.

Hey Keith,

You volunteering your booth as a meeting place again? It seems to be a tradition.

I'll be there.

[Kelite]

The entire Apollo staff volunteers the booth, Dave. It's our pleasure having friends from the industry stop in to 'put a face with the name' and have a few laughs too. (Did I really say that?)
I'll not be attending LDI this year due to several prior commitments but Monty McWilliams, Apollo Marketing VP, will be looking forward to saying hello and showing you the latest new products from Apollo (12 at last count!).

LDI is now less than two weeks away! I shan't be attending this year, but would like to propose

Noon EST, on Saturday, 11/21/09,
at Apollo, (Booth#643)

for the 2nd Annual ControlBooth Mixer at LDI.

As with last year, please post your intentions to attend in this thread, as well as your impressions, interesting products, excitations, disappointments, et al. of the show. (Or of dvsDave, for that matter.)

I, for one, will be severely disappointed if Dave has not posted a video of whatever ETC's secret product is, by 6pm Friday, 11/20.

[Edrick]

I'm going to attempt to attend however I have two issues facing me 1) Transportation to get there and 2) Currently I'm shooting a short from the 19th - the 21st so not sure yet.

That sounds great, Derek!

I hope all attendees enjoy the show. It's good to put a few faces with the names of ControlBooth personalities. After all, community is an important thing regardless of experience, status, discipline, whatever.

Prepare to be amused amazed by the presence of our webmaster!

Sounds like somebody's going on vacation.

Sadly I can't attend, but I hope to be part of the crew again next year. As Derek said I too look forward to some first hand accounts of ETC's new "wonder child".

Well, it IS that time of year in northern Indiana! I'll catch up with the hubub and who/what/where of LDI when I get back to the office. I hope you all enjoy the show and come away from it with a few solutions to some of your design challenges (along with a greater appreciation of our ControlBooth 'family')!

Sorry, I'll be attending the IAAPA as it's in my neck of the woods this year.

See you guys next year.
