Things you need at PubCon Las Vegas
Since I live in Las Vegas going to PubCon is just a short drive. Those of you traveling from afar may not know some of the items you will need to bring to make your stay comfortable.
1. It will be windy and warm during the day- so a light jacket is advised, especially since they seem to keep the convention area as a ice box.
2. Nasal mist – The air is very dry here and if you are not used to the total lack of humidity you may experience a nose bleed.
3. Throat spray or lozenges. – Again the lack of humidity will impact your voice. Singers in Las Vegas insist on humidifiers backstage to prevent “Desert Throat” from striking. If you are a Event Speaker or want to network at all, pack these items to ensure your voice will stay in tune.
4. Antacids and The Pink Stuff- You insurance policy for trying out the interesting looking decorative eating choices at the parties- ah I meant networking events.
5. A Backpack- to put all the stuff you know won’t fit in the goody bag.
6. If you want party favors for your room might I suggest you tell the cab to take you to Lee’s Liquor ( Flamingo and Pecos Mcleod). Best prices and they have everything!
Got anything to add to the shopping list?
