Chem, you have to remind me which one this is. I get them all confused. Where is this usually held?

It was to be July 4th at the Baltimore Harborplace Hotel. http://www.poleconvention.com/
this is the one that usually travels around. it has been held in Florida, Baltimore and LA and I'm pretty sure this is the one that jessalyn puts on.

this is sad hopefully nobody loosed money for plane tickets ect :( any idea of what could of happen
The only thing I can think of that is currently going on is insurance issues. I know a lot of competitions and showcases and such are losing money this year too. Stagnant wages combined with increasing insurance and food costs have finally come to a head. People do not have the extra income to attend shows like this. Hell, the hotel rooms were *discounted* to $179 a night.

Aw. That it really sad to hear.
For me, the date was a real problem. July 4th is the big Rock and Roll Fest here...just 4 blocks away and the biggest musical "local" event in town....3 days of music for $40. I've gone 20 years in a row and didn't want to miss it. Joel Lessing
For me the date was the issue too... When you have kiddos you want to be around to take them to the fireworks and BBQ. The 4th of July is kind of a family holiday... and I'd feel bad missing it.
