Over, Finished, Done, Gone, Out!!! 2010 was a blast

2010 is done. And we had a blast, and from all accounts, so did everyone who attended.

As we announced in the closing keynote, we launched a 5 year plan in 2008 after the economy took a bit of a nose dive, in that 2009 and 2010 would be primarily about keeping the conference going in these difficult times. 2011 onwards would be the recovery, and as announced earlier, the plan has worked.

Unorthodox venue or not, we all got a bit of a surprise when we discovered TigerTiger had added a dance floor and barriers to the main room, whereby affecting visibility, but we battled on and everyone, all 176 of you - our best attendance yet - didn't utter a single complaint.

That's what we love about the SOTR audience. You guys really appreciate what we do, and when we hit a snag, you roll with it. So a huge thanks.

And a huge thanks to all our speakers and sponsors. Without you, we can't deliver the conference to the EMEA community.

We'll be posting/linking to all speaker presentations as soon as we can, but in the mean time, here's some links to reviews from 2010. Thanks again - the CF community really is the best in the world.

    Ever since I read this post, it's been bugging me where I've heard "Over, Finished, Done, Gone, Out" before. I've finale worked it out, so State of Euphoria joins Fighting the World on the list of classic Metal revisited since SOTR!

    Thanks again for a great event.
