It is that time of year again, the 14th Annual Phoenix Forum (TPF 2013) will be held April 4-7, 2013 at the Tempe Mission Palms Hotel, in Tempe, AZ. This is the 9th consecutive year that the adult industry B2B event has been held at the Tempe Mission Palms, and every time we return it is almost like coming home. The staff is always cordial and helpful and I think they like having us as much as we like being there. PimpsPromo will be attending and photographing this year’s event, and this time the photos will be sponsored by merchant service provider, Mobius Payments.

A quick look at The Phoenix Forum 2013 schedule of events shows that many of the events we have grown to love are returning. This would include the seminars and workshops along with the Hooter’s Happy Hour, speed networking and the sponsor meet market. Of course the break stations and lunches will also be happening. Juicy Dodge Ball is replacing naked dodge ball, so it will be interesting to see what changes happen there. Beer pong will be returning after a year or two off. For those arriving early, the X2K Golf Tournament and the YNOT Grand Prix will both be held on Wednesday, April 3. (more…)

These photos are from Monday, which was day two of the 2013 Internext Expo, being held at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. Today was primarily a day of education and networking; with the day consisting of numerous seminars, panels, workshops and Speed Networking. Monday afternoon featured an interesting keynote speech by Karl Bernard, President of founder of Gamma Entertainment. The afternoon ended with a “Block Party” which was reminiscent of the old “Corridor Cruising” events of yesteryear with various sponsors providing mini-suite parties.

These photos are from Sunday night at the 2013 Internext Expo, the B2B conference for Internet side of the adult industry. If one wanted to sum up the evening in a word, I would vote for cold; as in really freaking cold. I started the night off by heading over to the YNOT Grand Prix. There was a very small turnout and I am sure the weather had a lot to do with it. The building in all concrete floors and they had to leave a large door open to evacuate the exhaust fumes. I was told it was like driving on ice. The people that were there seemed to have a good time.

I then headed over to the Mr. Skin Mini Golf event. That was a very fun location to photograph and there were quite a few people; all seeming to be enjoying honing their putting skills. After leaving there I went back over to the Hard Rock and went to the GFY Party and the Money Lovers suite.
