Mashable’s SummerMash LA was a Summer Bash

I went up to SummerMash LA on Friday to kick it with Pete & his entourage of thousands. It was good times. The venue was a little disappointing - a lot of dirt/sand, grass and stones around so definitely wasn’t easy for a girl in 3″ heels to get around. But overall the atmosphere was laid back and people were extremely approachable and friendly. I met a few cool people - some from MySpace, Investing.com, ThisNext, Veoh and of course Pete Cashmore himself. Well, I guess you could say I “met” him - it was more of a ‘Jump in the picture with him and bail out’. It was actually thought it was really weird. All night Pete would just take pictures will people - like he was this robot of some sort just making rounds through the crowd, taking pictures, appointing his assistant to get your name so you’re tagged appropriately, and moving on. I guess that’s what you have to do when you’re the “Face” of the company, no?

All in all it was a nice party. It was executed very well, the people were great, the drinks & food were free and plentiful, and the pictures were better than ever! :)

    Haha, now I know why I’ve seen so many pictures of Pete with random people from the SummerMash tour.

    Yep - Pete definitely gets a TON of pics taken of him during these events. I guess it’s a hard life… :)
