When you hear something like this, you have to go take a look and when you find a New Orleans band playing the start of your trade show, you know the day’s going to be good.

We were blessed with a steady stream of booth traffic throughout the first day, and would like to thank all those who stopped by for their time, interest, and stories about their great events.  We look forward to following up with you soon!

After a 10-year hiatus, SGASi is back at The Special Event’s trade show, this time in NOLA, for some event planning goodness. Dennis Smith, Keith Menne, and myself (Ben) will be setting up booth 828 tomorrow for the show that runs thru Friday.

We’re looking for #eventprofs who would like to be interviewed for a piece on “what makes good event drape” or “what I look for in a performance stage”. Stop by, hit us up on twitter (@SGASi) or come to the tweetup we’re coordinating Wednesday night at the Hilton Riverside Bar at 6:30 PM.
