Come on guys. I personally know that the NOCC put in an extreme amount of hours making calls and going to hotels and talking to the sales staff. They were looking for the best deal for everyone.
David and I have done this with Audiokarma.org for years. Think about the costs involved with running an event like this. The hotel charges you for everything. The NOCC has a relationship with this hotel and they want to keep them so I am confident in their decision to stay.
Another thing that I think about is how many car shows have you been to where you can BBQ in the lot, have your parking spot saved for you if you leave and sit outside all night in your lawn chair with your cooler by your side ?
I am sure that Mark, Joe and the NOCC knew that they were not going to please everyone. But they knew that they wanted to have a show that continues to get better and that raises as much money as possible for the Toys for Tots program which is important to many of us.
I am hoping that the 2016 NOCC show will be better than ever.
