There was a day long ago (30 odd years or so) when I could look at fonts and ID them. Back then I 
ran one of the early graphic arts service bureaus with a Linotronic Imagesetter. Anyway, . . .

If you are talking about that RED PILL EXPO as the logo, the typeface is very simple. If you had a 
good clear example of it, you could scan it, bring it into Adobe Illustrator, and reproduce it (just 
those words) in fairly short order. It's all straight lines with just a few identical curves on the 
R, D and P. Save that as an EPS file and you are set to go.
