Click to expand From the myspace blog: January 18, 2009 As the title says, bigger does not always mean better. The 2009 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo shrunk in size this year as a reflection of the nation's economy. It shows that pornography is not recession-proof. There were less exhibitors booths this year taking up less space and I haven't seen the walking area this small since the 2004 expo. As for the fan turnout, I would say it was about the same as last year even though there was a complete overlap with the next door Consumer Electronics Show in terms of dates which theoretically would bring in people tired of looking just at electronics. Instead of having a Wednesday through Saturday show culminating in the AVN Awards, this year's convention went back to the traditional Thursday exclusive to the adult industry to the post-awards Sunday hangover. During the trade-only Thursday, I heard plenty of grumblings about the economy and the lack of business that was being conducted on the floor. This neuroticism transferred over to the rest of the days as exhibitors tried hard to attract and retain their fans. While the masses were waiting in line for a girl, booth people were handing out free items to people in line and asking for their feedback about what they liked and didn't like to see. I noticed that most of the girls signing were happy to meet and greet their fans. Even the fans seem a bit more civil this year although I could attribute this phenomenon to the higher ticket prices this year weeding out the less savory members of the public. As for the individual booths, this year debuted the first stage show booth in the form of Fyre TV. Fyre TV had girls signing from multiple companies and I thought they were easily the best booth of the show. Some of the stage shows featuring fan contests and rap shows seemed hokey, but I enjoyed the fact that if you were to hang out in that booth only for the entire show, there was always something to watch and do. Standout girls that put on shows on the couches and benches included McKenzee Pierce, Ashley Jensen, Jaelyn Fox, and Phoenix Marie. Fans also were treated to a new look Jenny Hendrix who kept flashing her goods and a gorgeous web newbie in glasses, Tenaya, who allowed the fans to grope her ass and boobs. I was also mesmerised by the eyes and charisma of the new contract girl of New Sensations, Sadie West. Eric John's booth, Erotique Entertainment, always had something interesting going on whether it was an impromptu show by Tanner Mays or Jana Jordan or the "accidental" flashing by girls with loose tops. I appreciated the professional scheduling of Digital Playground's crew and I took advantage by blocking off fifteen minutes to gab with my girls from Berlin, Stoya and Angelina Armani. One thing I noticed this year was that several booths were selling dvds indirectly to the fan. For example Evil Angel was selling shirts for 15 dollars and you get a free dvd with that. You could even pick the director you wanted, and they were happy to swap out a dvd if you already had it. I bought several shirts for my friends and bartenders. By Sunday, the price of the shirts dropped to 10 dollars, which is a bargain for EA! When I asked if I could buy some dvds individually, I was scolded by the little saleswoman. Jules Jordan Video had a similar deal with their shirts and dvds except that it was 40 dollars and the price didn't go down on Sunday. About the only inaccessible booth I found photographing was Brianna Bank's new company. In order to meet the girls signing there, you had climb up a flight of stairs and it was impossible to get a clean shot of the girls between the safety railings of the booth. Overall though, I had a positive impression of the show compared to years past. Socialisation and by that I mean mostly drinking! As for the AdultDVDTalk turnout, I knew there were several convention regulars that didn't make it to the convention; but to be frank, I didn't really miss any except for our favourite Dutchman, Jacco.

kristinarose Member 797 Posts 2/08	Posted - Oct 4 2009 : 3:36PM ^^^^ LOL. I remember that night! I don't know how but I do. lol. The bus still hasn't stopped. In fact we (Alexis, Pete and I) are taking it to Paris for the Hot d'Or Awards in October and then to AEE/AVN again in January. Don't forget to get on We'll slow down so you can jump off before the blowjob train ;P [Link]

Spieglergirls
Thanks to the Shylock, every night I went out on the town I managed to have a harem with me. The first night, I was minding my own business drinking my bottomless Grey Goose and tonic when Penny Flame jumped onto my lap and sat there. Unfortunately for me, my drink was still in my lap under her and within one minute, I was scheming in my drunk mind on how to pry that drink out since I was getting might thirsty.

By the end of the night, Kristina Rose's voice had become hoarse from yelling that Pete remarked she sounded like a tranny. An eavesdropping Phoenix Marie deadpanned, "Let me call Christian over so he can check."
The Awards
I debated about shooting the red carpet for several days. Previous years had my face elbowed in several times while trying to jump up and down behind the rows of photographers. To be honest I seriously thought about just going to the taxi line at the Venetian to take photos of the suits and dresses getting into their limos.

What did I do instead? I ran off to the Circle Bar.
