Yeah, I remember the year both AEE and Internext were held at same time over at the Sands. That was rough. The exhibitors were run ragged. The attendees struggled to find people because they were spread amongst multiple locations.

I despise the Palms. I was among the bumped first year there despite early arrival, their customer service sucked in how they handled it. And I will never stay there again as a result. Period.

And last year, I stayed in a tower suite down on the strip for the entire time for what one night would've cost me at Palms. I bought a badge, but I think used it for a grand total of 5 hours. Waste of time. I couldn't wait to get out of that hotel...food sucks, their bars suck, their service sucks.

Came back over for one of the parties only to find the club pretty empty yet any place to sit had a reserved sign on it for whatever "stars" were to show up later as an "attraction". Get fucking real. I'm in the business, I'm not there to worship a porn star. If I cant grab a pit, sit, have a conversation and do a little business, I'm out of there. And I was.

That pretty well ended my attendance last year. I spent my time offsite with people I actually wanted to see.
