Get any biz done at the show, or just run around taking photos for a long standing internet feud that does not pay the bills?
For the record, I did very little.

As a general rule, I actually usually agree with Brad on things like this. I would like to see the entire industry become more professional and responsible on a number of different levels....including trade shows.
GonZo's fur coat started out as a big joke....almost a dare. But the thing has taken on a life of it's own, and I'm not just talking about the fact that he needs to dry clean the damned thing. After watching it in action, up close, it has become one of the best branding exercises I've seen.
I guess we'll find out in coming weeks whether he was just clowning and taking pictures or whether he was getting some business done. So there's no reason to debate it. We'll see whether it worked after we see what business comes about as a result.
If it didn't work, maybe next year he'll get himself a lobster suit....oh wait, that's been done...
