Mark Gentile met with me to talk about Odyssey Software’s Athena. Athena is a device management product that can extend the System Center Configuration Manager console to  give the administrator some nifty tools for remotely managing mobile devices. I was very impressed with the clean interface and integration into the console.

Odyssey Software is a MyITforum.com sponsor.

The Pablo Palooza band started playing at about 8pm at the MyITForum.com party. And they did rock! The band members are:

Magic Dave Roberts-Keyboards, Guitar, Vocals
George Knight-Bass, Vocals
Mark Hobbs-Guitar, Vocals
Mike Velvet Davis-Vocals, Percussion, Chick magnet
Paul Gonzalez-Drums, Vocals

They are not just another band out of Boston. Paul Gonzalez is a long time member of the MyITForum community and we are unsure whether he was on or off vacation while in Las Vegas. But either way, we sure are glad he was there.

The opening set was a strong mix and got the crowd jumping:

In this video, I tried to catch people in the audience. Were you there?

And the third video shows the band from the wings.

I know, you just can’t get enough of these guys! Be sure to go watch the videos in HD on YouTube and sign up for the PabloPalooza fan page on Facebook!

 Rod Trent introduces the sponsors who help make MyITForum.com possible and pay for the MyITForum.com’s exclusive “Buttons Only” party. In the first video, Rod introduces Viewfinity, Matrix42, Secure Vantage Technologies (SVT), and Microsoft. 

In the second video Garth Jones and Ed Aldrich present Rod and Ron Crumbaker with a plaque commemorating 10 years of MyITForum.com. Next Ron calls out the booth babes and myself. Lastly, Ed talks about 1E and their long history supporting MyITForum.com

They had the stage lights off during these videos, but I was able to brighten them a bit. Enjoy!
