AEE 2010, aka Porn Convention 2010, aka Porno Convention 2010
by Jeremy Steele, January 21, 2009.
For the readers who remember last years Vegas AVN adventure, where I took the greyhound bus to get there, and then managed to get a free press pass for POONTALK by a gentleman who felt sorry for me…
Well, this year, I drove from L.A. to Vegas with Lucky Starr. A cosmic bit of coincidence; from L.A. she booked us room 1138 at “The Plaza” hotel, which happened to be right next to and above the same greyhound bus stop where I arrived in Vegas last year! It wasn’t the best neighborhood in Vegas, as you can see by the parking sign I took a photo of.
When it came to getting a free press pass, I looked for the gentlemen who was there last year but he was nowhere to be found. I told the people there that I was press for POONTALK, and they said “Press for WHO?” I expected they would have me in their data banks from last year, but I was told they hold no data from past shows.
They asked me if I had a business card, and told me that would be sufficient to get in, but I told him I didn’t have any on me. The reason I had none with me was because I never had any made. A “friend” once told me I didn’t need any POONTALK business cards, that the great name of Poontalk was enough, to get me around. I guess not…

So you’re going to a business convention and you have no business cards? That sounds silly.
Hey, it’s not my fault! I was guided by the divine wisdom of the poontalk idiotor, I mean editor. Does Hugh Hefner have to hand out business cards? Besides, business cards are an added expense and I spent all my extra cash betting on The Jets!
Cindi, could you get Jeremy some credentials for next year. He did take some good pictures, better than the Camera of Death ever did. Steele, you still get work?
For cryin’ out loud, J. You mean the “great Poontalk” couldn’t even cough up a measly $140—or less— for round-trip airfare, and you had to take the Gray Dog last year?! That’s just sad, brother. Any wonder that simply droppin’ the name didn’t get you any love there this year? BTW, showing up on the red carpet in t-shirt, jeans, and a beanie definitely showed ’em where you’re coming from. Just sayin’. Next year, go to Office Depot and invest $18.50 on some biz cards, and you’ll be viewed more professionally.
thanks for the advice third, but fyi keep in mind whether real or contrived we’re all playing a role… and there’s no way i or poon talk could provide the laughs and unique perspective we do if it were any other way; pictures from the edge of the world and signs saying “parking for mexicans only”, etc… also i’ll have you know my beanie was picked up in Ireland, at least i wasn’t wearing a raincoat, which perhaps more should, i think… i mean, after all do you jerk off into a silk hankerchief or toilet paper?
Haha, good response, El Steelio. And judging from some of the tacky stripper/hooker outfits on display there, a raincoat-and-beanie combo would have fit right in.
Thanks for asking about my masturbatory regimen, but actually, I aim for the ceiling light fixture and clean up with the wet-vac. (;^P
Take nothing seriously…
Why did you have trouble getting into the convention this year? You had trouble last year where I even tried helping you get tickets. You were also going around begging on XPT and other places trying to find tickets last year. So why didn’t you prepare months in advance for this year?
Darrah, Asking is one thing, and I may sometimes play or be played for a fool, but I don’t beg. I went virtually last minute, for my own reasons, wasn’t sure whether I was even going. Just try to enjoy it for what it is. There’s still 120 pictures there to enjoy and I had a good time, regardless.
Start planning this coming September so you can go next year. This way you can get the press passes and proper credentials to get in to more parties and take more pictures.
Steele, I saw a still of you in a scene with Luna Azul, so you are getting work, not sure how long ago it was, but work is work.
Right on, Jeremy. More close up shots of tits and asses, please.
Thanks for the feedback, peeps. Yeah, yeah, Larry, I still work. It’s true that some people get off on talking and/or hearing shit about others, but I’ve been a regular for several years now for Will Ryder who consistently sells at #1, so I can’t be that bad of a performer, can I?
Do you work for Will Ryder or Jeff Mullen, do ever see them together, or is it like BDD and Roy, to you anyway.
Larry, huh? Stop drinking.
Not drinking, but it looks like my typing was a few words off. What’s with Poontalk calling you Germy?
It’s a personal problem/sense of humor the editor has. No matter how many times he repeats himself he never finds it boring. It’s also reflective of the poontalk policy that no one in the industry will be trashed… except me (and Sophia after she starts it).
Jesus was only crucified once.
