Once again [user]Kelite[/user] has generously offered the use of the Apollo Booth (Booth#600) for our ControlBooth get-togethers.

We have two scheduled:
Thursday, 03/19, 11:00 AM
Saturday, 03/21, 11:30 AM

Come to none, one, or both. More age-appropriate imbibing can be arranged via PM and email. What happens in Cincinnati, stays in Cincinnati.;)

For those who missed Vegas be sure to have Kelite tell you his Tree House tech support story! Sadly Gaff will be absent... perhaps next year. :(
 
I am in for both. Looking forward to it. AVKid, you should absolutely make the drive. USITT is a good time.

USITT??

Ok so a friend of mine and i want to go to the saturday of USITT, but 1. we can't find any one day registration if there is any, 2. do we have to become collegian members to register (we're both in college anyway) or is there just a registration for college students without being a member...can anyone help please?!?

:?:
 
Re: USITT??

There is two ways to go... you can go full Conference for one day, which will run you 300 bucks or so, or do the "VIP" pass. The VIP Pass gets you into the showfloor only, no meetings, panels, or sessions. However, the VIP pass is free. I am doing the VIP pass thing on Saturday because I could not get time off work due to county wide budget freezes. Apollo, ETC, and every other company that will be on the showfloor can give you a VIP access code. I got mine from Apollo, but to each his own. See you there.
 
I'll be there with a crew from school... not sure if I can sneak away to the mixers but would be cool if I can.
 
Re: USITT??

I was about to post the link to sign-up (http://www.xpressreg.net/eReg/?ShowCode=EUST039) but it looks like online registration has ended.

Online registration is now closed. Please bring your complimentary VIP code with you to register onsite. Registration will be located in the first floor lobby of the Duke Energy Convention Center. You can register at a convenient Self Registration terminal with your complimentary VIP code.
Thank you for your interest in the 2009 USITT Stage Expo, which will be held March 19-21, 2009 at the Duke Energy Convention Center in Cincinnati, Ohio.​

BUT it looks like you can register onsite - you still need a VIP code. Use Creative Stage Lighting's: CSL865.
 
*grumbles* Won't be able to make this year....again....god this is getting old. Next year I've allready got it on the calander.
 
Double grumbles...Gotta show that weekend (National Acrobats of China) so I can't make the trip. I was really hoping to make it this year too since I spent a few good years in Cinti! Have fun everyone.
 
I'll be around somewhere. I'm not sure if I'll be able to meet up at the Apollo booth at those times but I'll be there sometime! I've gotten myself into a pretty busy schedule.
 
I live here (there) so I will defiantly be there. I'll be working at the ETC booth for some of the time demoing the SmartFade line including the SF.ML.
Im also planning on becoming a full member of USITT so I'll be at some of the lighting conferences.

P.S. its a nice City
 
Nope.

I won't be there this year. The time of year and the location keep me from attending. When it comes back to the west coast, then maybe I'll be able to go.

My thoughts exactly. Wish I had a big budget to send me all over the country to USITT and LDI. It's in Kansas City next year. Wonder if it's coming back West in 2011?

I foresee KC being pretty good. Its fairly central, however flights to KC can be pretty high in price. I would think they would send it out west in '11, It has not been out there in years.
 
It doesn't appear much more expensive to me from Missoula. Granted, I was extremely happy to get my roundtrip out of Missoula to Cinci for only $275, sadly the cheapest flight I've ever had from here. Everything is expensive for me :(

Thanks for the intro gafftaper, I am sorry to admit that I'll be working diligently at Apollo during the USITT show. Hey, someone has to pick gobos off the tree, stuff envelopes with gum, post on the CB, and all the other 'perks' that go with being gainfully employed!

Actually, we try to free up different Apollo folks to attend the handful of shows we are involved with. I'll be manning the Apollo booth at the ProLight + Sound show in Frankfurt in a few weeks, so please have a cool beverage in Cinci and raise a glass for me!


(The treehouse tech story is certainly entertaining, and I would love to share it sometime with all our kin at the CB!)
 
I need some help please. Im trying to figure out price.

Im going to become a member of USITT while im there as student for $63. But im also planning on attending some of the conferences but im confused on the pricing for them. I see other prices for attending ALL of them but I dont want to go to all of them and I dont have the time to go to all if the one I would like to.

So basically can anyone help me figure out the pricing for individual conferences ?
