The free booze thing doesn't tweek me. The having a
chaperone part does. How can you get quality material
such as interviews/comments/photos when an extra party
is standing right there like some sort of translator.

Being my sarcastic self I probably would have
interviewed one of the chaperones 'so wuz up with the
shadow dance?'

Perhaps the Pax. peeps have an explanation. I can
understand not wanting press in the artist tent
hounding people-artists are they to be schmoozed too.
Plus, I remember from other events people would pull a
magazine out of their ass just to get a badge that
lead to a free hotdog-which was annoying to people who
were there to work.

Press is always a sticky thing to handle.
