LDI Preshow - Day 2
The show floor is still a huge mess at 8pm Thursday night. It is amazing that it will look very complete by 8am Friday morning - but it usually happens that way.
Let me first report that my friends at Barbizon were able to resolve their union troubles - and once again put up a nice stand.
Their stand even includes a fine blimp! Is that the IATSE or the teamsters filling the blimp?
LDI is an opportunity for peoples real personalities to come out.
Imagine my surprise to encounter Dr. DMX - standing very still in multiple booths.
It seems that Doug Fleenor - AKA Dr. DMX has planted himself all over the show floor this year. I will look for more instances tomorrow.
Coemar with a beautiful display - nicely lit.
And Robe - also a nice display. They have a large stand and seem to be increasing their prescence in the US market.
I have no idea what this is. Looks like a prop from the movie cocoon or something. I'll go back for a better look tomorrow.
We at ETC held a rep meeting this evening. Had a good rep turnout and a great opportunity to get our reps up to speed on what we are doing. Here you will see David North showing off our new Emergency Lighting Transfer Switch (ELTS)
Did I mention that David Smith loves his Congo jr? It's hard not to love a desk so cute!
Anne Valentino showing the latest Eos software release to the demoers.
The latest release has really cleaned up many areas and added the really nice features. The demos tomorrow should go great! There was a lot of energy in our group tonight and I think this is a moment we have all been waiting for.
Does this guy look happy? 
He should. Dan Duffy is one of the lead software developers on the Eos and he is happy to see it in action on the stand! Good luck tomorrow Dan.
Wish us all good luck! Tomorrow begins a new day. Opening day.
