  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Where to see RED ONE & the team

Hotel costs can be substantial, the first few years I drove up in my pick-up camper and showered at the health club. The last few years I have stayed as cheap and close as possible so I could walk to the LVCC - there are never enough taxis or bus seats.

Where have you stayed Blair and what were the costs?
 
The Hilton is known for being open to special rates for large groups. Plus you are 2 minutes walking from the convention. And they have a pretty good buffet too.

I stayed at the El Cortez last year for 39.00 a night. Not a good place, didn't even have 3 prong outlets. Great Mexican restaurant across the street though. Very old time Las Vegas feel. Not very safe, close to downtown LV, with the over head screen and street players though. It was cheaper to take a taxi from the hotel then stay on the strip when I booked.
 
Yo Rob et al - you have two booth numbers listed - are they adjacent, or are there two actual Red booths doing different stuff?
 
NAb hotels

Would be interested to hear from others who have gone solo, but from what I understand you can get better rates from hotels not affiliated with the show.

Just use Travelocity or similar internet travel services to find deals on small numbers of rooms. And stay away from Friday and Saturday nights too, thats when the highest occupancy nights occur, much better deals on Tuesday and Wednesday.
 
I have always found good rates using hotwire for vegas around NAB. I know I don't like that they don't tell you where you are staying until you book. But I have found that I usally get what I want.

As Jarred said use the Tram. It will save you allot of time and allot of money.
 
We'll definitely have to assemble a REDuser get-together of some kind...

Thanks to Zakaree, I'm officially registered.

For those that are registering: there are four places to add other people's names/emails for a free VIP pass. If somebody on here can't find a way to register for free, post your name and email. That way somebody who is registering can shoot you a free VIP pass.

NAD REDwing thread...

NAD REDwing thread...

I was afraid someone would ask where I have stayed the last few years and my faulty memory would become public record. There is a Travelodge or maybe it was Comfort Inn right accross from the Hard Rock. There is a hotel that used to be called the Blair Suites (easy to remember ;) ) that was close and while the property was tired the rates were low, the walk was short and it seemed safe enough. I think there is also a Best Western in that area as well.

If there is enough interest I can research this and present options to the group. Perhaps we need a thread specifically for this effort? Jarred?
 
Hey Brook, can you hook me up? You have my Name and e-mail.

We stayed at that Comfort Inn at last year's NAB, it was decent enough and the pool was nice. FWIW, we just booked a couple of weeks ago at the Best Western Mardi Gras, just a 2 minute walk from the Convention Center, it was $150 per night if you're AAA (we're bunking up like a bootlegger's secret stash).
 
Downtowner was $40/night. We drove from the hotel to a huge NAB lot [$6 or so] and walked right into the convention center. Definitely the cheap way to do NAB.

That said, nobody should ever stay at the Downtowner. Ever.
 
Heh, 2 years ago we stayed at a place down on Fremont St. The beds, the BEDS. Or should I say masterful examples of minimalist sado-maschism. Ooh, I'm getting knots just reliving it.
