If you guys do get prince can you get him to have us over to his house to play a little 3 on 3 after the concert?

What about Paris Hilton we could prolly get her for a saltine and a crack rock LOL

This thread is getting me motivated to start planning for January.

I am toying around with the idea of using a huge venue with our industry as VIP and consumers would pay. This would be a great way for programs to reach consumers and webmasters mixed with good press. I'm thinking arena style.

If anyone is interested, please hit me up. It's much easier to go big with at least 1 or 2 decent sized sponsors lined up far in advance, also the maximum promotion for the sponsors with several months leading up to it.

I do have some names I'd like to throw out there.

Jay-Z (though he's next to impossible)
Kanye
The Game
Ice Cube (encore performance)
Snoop Dogg (encore performance)
Tribe Called Quest
Black Eyed Peas
Ludacris
Lil Wayne

There is also a rock list too, this would be if we do a Players Ball.

Any money players reading this?

i dont think you have enough money to get shavo to play with those guys again.

LOL I have the inside track on La Bouche.

Imagine that. It'd be like old school online porn industry. :1orglaugh



Well, he is a friend. She died in a plane accident in 2001. :(

A good band for another Rock The Ball could be Lars Frederickson and The Bastards or Scum of the Earth. Lars is the guitarist from Rancid and has some great songs. Scum of the Earth is the former backing band for Rob Zombie and sounds a lot like White Zombie! Both bands have some ties to porn, hell I'm pretty sure Riggs from SotE was at Erotica LA this year.

Interesting. Just curious if our webmasters could handle a real good hard rock show.

"music is too loud to do business"

"sound system sucked, sounded like shit"

:1orglaugh

Fuck it, we're doing GWAR!

les claypool would be amazing.

Haha no doubt some people would complain! That's why I tossed in Lars Frederikson and the Bastards, it's more upbeat fast punk stuff that I think a good amount of people could vibe on. Scum of the Earth has a song called Pornstar Champion, so I felt inclined to throw them in the mix :1orglaugh

fuck that, lets have slumpbuster play

WN4L!

I highly doubt people could handle Slumpbuster!

wn4e

I would definitely crash it :thumbsup

How about the Beastie Boys?

I have a question and this is most definitely not hate or negativity.

With all the recent threads about shows, wouldn't it be more valuable to a show to spend money on attempting to give attendees what they have requested rather than continue with the wow factor?

ie R&D on seminars and how to make them more information packed / interesting is something that stood out in the threads to me.

Again not hate at all.

thats the whole point.. we'll blow their fucking minds!

pass around girl!

wn

Pretty sure the cancer is keeping them from performing much anytime soon. :Oh crap

Good question.

Was that for Chris or me?

lol

Beastie Boys is also another almost impossible group to get.

The money would be too high and their image.

I've looked into them plenty.

Its Vegas. Get an impersonator and have him lip the tracks on stage.
The stupid fucking webmasters wont know the difference.

At least thats what Anal Hobbit would do.

Easy fucking money.

It was a for you.

So how bout it D? Change the players ball into a players seminar?

Those guys have aged enough over the years and changed into an unfamilar look you easily could slip in some real good vegas impersonators and look alikes and the webmasters would never know.

That a lock.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Hmmmmmmmmm

I'll Rick Roll the whole party!

I was looking at the overall - what's the point of blasting huge sums of money on the ball when the money could be better spent elsewhere.

Well, the last couple of Players Balls we got huge name artists on a much smaller budget. E-40 & DJ Quik.

And I would only spend the money on huge names if the sponsors are able to get a nice ROI. The Ball is split up between big and small sponsors so that no one is stuck with a HUGE expense. Well, that depends on what you'd consider huge. But figure that in the past if the total costs for a Ball with big name artist is about $80k to $100k and a main sponsor only has to pay $20k, it's a good deal. Can that money be better spent else where? Depends on the goal of the sponsor. If they want as much exposure and hype leading up to the event, locking it in earlier rather than later would give them a better return.

Big name talent gets hype and excitement from our crowd.

Look at this thread for example. Would anyone be posting if I had cover bands and wedding singers?

eminem thats all im say'n

How about some rock :0 or how about Kings of Leon. Something 80's maybe? I'm trying...

How about eminem or kanye west or fabulous

how about this far fetched idea...find out who is playing in Vegas during that time that fits the bill for webmasters. then buy massive amounts of group tickets to the concert compliments of the sponsors and have The Ball After The Band party lined up in a VIP section or club that is in same space as the concert that can have all the signage etc. not sure how much it cost to do it from scratch with hiring own band, but amount of sponsor money might cover a few hundred concert tix, wristband goodies and party location. you save yourself a ton of work and could have a ton of fun working on unique marketing and promotions that could be tailored accordingly. So peeps enjoy a concert together and then a party with DJ tunes or whatever to drink and network to.

LOL would be awesome to see a ton of peeps in a concert section decked out Player's Ball style.

Just an out there thought :)
it's what happens when I haven't had coffee and have to get my daughter off to a Disneyland party by 8am LOL.

^.^

Elli, I always knew you were a rocker in there :thumbsup

Kid Rock... he was at AVN last year. And he loves porn girls.

Get him a porn girl and a 6 pack and your set.

Someone told me that he lives on Lake Norman? Do any of you know if he does? That would be awesome if I could get him to one of our events.

u really dont get what a moron u are, do u?


Your incessant posting shows me you must not have too much going on right now.
:error

Do you like Fish Sticks Chris?

Shavo???

He would probably do it for free... It's Serj that would be the problem.

you could get shavo np, its just that i don't he'd like to be around the rest of the group

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

for the win!

Airport Pick Me Up has to one of the greatest songs ever written.

You can call it the "Ex-Players Just For Men Grey Hair Ball"

Neil Diamond

even though the sud "kids" here won't admit it, they would show up

who doesn't like "Daydream Believer"?
hahahaha

This thread is unreal, after all this talk about condensing shows. We start talking about getting eminem/Kayne whoever. Why dont we start talking about making these shows better for the industry and not about what superstar who will never play it.

I honestly cant beleive this lol
