So it was that the Great Reeveso and Solomon Granberg The Wise embarked on an important mission Tuesday the 25th of November, in the year 2008 of our Queen Elizabeth, to drink as much of Business Spectator's fine wine as humanly possible in celebration of their first birthday.
The formal part of the night consisted of speeches from the KGB (Kohler, Gotti and Bartholomeusz) and former power-mane net-evangelist and seller-of-the-first-banner-in-Australia Tony Faure. Following on from this formal part of the evening was a good solid session of red red wine and being grilled by various publishers, journos and salesmen. All together a rather odd experience.
The summary:
Crowd: Men in business suits. Sexually ambiguous Asian (currently in the running for the LNCP Hard Play award) and 1 x power mane in the lobby.
Bar Tab: Waiting staff kept the wine glasses close to full all day.
Goodie Bag: None. Not even a cheeky stock-tip.
Entertainment: talk about real estate, BlackBerries and (other people's) Brazilian girlfriends.
Ear Benders: does being interrogated by Eric Beecher count? Nah, it was all good.
Love-Ins: None. It was strictly business.
