Who's going to SEMA?

We need a thread to see who is going and maybe plan a get together/party.
Can we buy passes through PHP?
Where is E1 staying, etc.

We will probably be staying at New York, New York or the Excalibur. I just haven't checked out prices yet, but I'm sure NYNY will throw something our way.

I'm not sure about passes, but I can check. They were very different this year when it came to registering... I had to practically give over a blood sample and my first born to prove we were who we claimed to be -- and we're SEMA members! They've made it very clear that only certain industries are welcome. For example, U-Line -- they manufacture boxes -- aren't allowed even though they're product is used by MOST retailers. Weird. Wonder why they've clamped down?

I think we'll be arriving on Sunday and leaving on Thursday. Pretty sure.

We're booked in at the Orleans along with 2 other couples for Sunday to Friday. Other couples have never been to Vegas.

Can't waite

That's one event I still dream about going to but never had the opportunity. Heard it's a great time!

Nope. Don't have the money NOR the inclination! Even if we had the money to be an exhibitor, we wouldn't. Much more fun to go as a spectator. We also have the boys to consider... nobody under 16 can get in. As it is, we'll either take turns -- Billy on Tuesday and me on Wednesday -- or we'll get a sitter for one of the days and both go together. We've never lived around family or anything, so we're used to Liam and Wil always going with us everywhere. We're even considering purchasing a travel trailer this summer to make road trips easier!

Well I would be interested in going if ya can score me a ticket!
Maybe I can talk the wife into taking a few days off and coming out that way for a vacation... Actually there is a remote possibility of my wife taking a teaching job in LV in the fall... I hear you about the travel trailer... We have my mother-in-laws 36 ft winnebago RV but want a travel trailer that we can pull with the excursion instead. Trouble is that mother in law is upside down on the RV loan still... and the refrigeration coil is out in the fridge so that is $600 to replace...
It is really nice for long trip as you can just stop anywhere to eat, sleep, potty and diaper changes etc..

Any word on passes?

I know its early but don't want to waite till last minute.
I can probably get my passes localy through one of the shops in my area but would rather support PHP.

I'll be going again this year, if all goes well. Its just a blast ! So much fun.

Not sure where I will be staying. Last year was the first time in downtown (el cortez) pretty sweet, and some decent prices (cheaper tables and drinks). NYNY is always fun. Ceasar's palace is a great place to stay. Another cheaper spot I have found is Palace Station. We usually stay at a different spot everytime we head out. Guess I will wait and see this year, money might be a little tight. Would be cool to meet up with some of yall, and toss a few back.
