Because top publications rarely send people to the bar, they go to beauty contests. If reporters go to the bar its for a quickie, at least at Demo you have the opportunity to start a good relationship.
Also anyone can go to a dive bar, not everyone can get into Bijoux in NYC…. (credibility)

It’s the same reason people attend press events like Pepcom? I’m not sure I see where you’re coming from on this post?
Sure, the message of “be different/act different” makes sense, but using a large venue to launch makes sense as more than just media will be there, right? Vendors, potential purchasers, etc.
I tend to side with MattC on this one.
