Being one of the few LAD/LAU representatives in Asia I can say now that
an LAC here will be an uphill battle. Today I was at an audio trade show
in Bangkok where even the big names were having trouble getting a crowd.

That's not to say I'm not working on the possibility. Having
successfully planted the seed today I expect to see some movement over
the next couple of years assuming I stick around long enough to see it
through.

on the other hand the car show on the other side of the complex was
pumping. Maybe if I themed the event with big hot rods and sexy chicks
in thongs dancing on pillars it could work. Still we are missing some
cheesy Hip Hop and none of the old school rockers I know of use Linux to
record so the audio side of the show might not mesh with the theme.

Cheers.
