Microsofts Party Like A RockStar Pubcon Party

By Jeremy Schoemaker 54 comments

I have been getting a lot of emails about Microsofts private “Invite Only Party” titled Party Like A Rock Star and how it relates to our own Party Like A Search Engine Rockstar event.

The answer is they are not related at all. I guess Microsoft just lacks creativity. I know many of the people throwing that party read this blog daily so its not like its a weird mistake plus i announced mine like 2 months ago and its been featured on this blog and most blogs in the industry O WELL…

Anyway thought it would be easier just to make a post clairfying rather then respond to everyone why they didnt get a invite to my special party.

OHHH btw I am working on a really cool event the Rubicon Project will be hosting. More details on that soon ;)

    im a pc and microsoft fan. I hate internet explorer but i think windows is a great os. Don’t get me wrong i have a mac as well and love it. Why does it have to be a war? But the thing with microsoft is that its not a cool company. Stevie jobs said it best “microsoft has no culture” But in the end everyone copies. mac copied xerox, microsoft copied mac, and blahblahblah

    Microsoft should have named their event: “Party like a drunk guy”, at least it’s not copying.

    The sad part is, as search marketers we are all so far from really partying like rock stars its pathetic. No matter what you call the party, it’s just a bunch of geeks standing around drinking.

    Jim said on November 22nd, 2007 at 12:04 pm

    Not to burst your bubble, but the term “party like a rockstar” was around far before YOU stole the idea, dipshit. Aside from the that obvious fact, the 2 dudes in the mail room at Microsoft that read your blog have no influence anyway.

    Well, Microsoft copied an OS and launched DOS and then they copied Apple and launched Windows… So, it is not a rare thing for them. But I hope your party be better this time.

    There is probably a corporate party in vegas every week called “Party like a rock star”. It’s not like “party like a rock star” is a unique term or anything, and it is a perfect name for a party where a bunch of nobodies hang out on a tuesday night where the rock stars hang out on Saturday night….
