I think we're on the same page. I've run into every variety of club/rave promoter out here and very few understand what a lasershow takes to put on. That would be the main reason I seldom do events anymore unless I'm personally interested in helping with the event more or less.
Maybe once all of the attention whores with laser pointers (read: airplane blasters) make lasers mostly illegal there will be more demand for laser shows..
