NAMM 2010

Made it to NAMM once again. This major music convention, across from Disneyland, is really Dizzyland, madness beyond belief! Miles of musical instruments, music creation software, and studio gear... way more than I can describe or photo. So it didn't take long to get back to basics... sex!


The booth babes are always a fun thrill! As I said to the guys, let's get the sex over first, then we will be relaxed for the rest of the day.

The one piece of gear that was particularly interesting was from Taylor. Long known for their great acoustic instruments, they now produce several lines of electric guitars. Pictured is an interesting slim line hollow body electric with a Bixby, called a T3.


I must admit, the most impressive layout is from Fender... all their current lines (Charvel, Squire, Eddy Van Halen, Gretch) are nicely presented in a huge room with a wonderful "street" theme. While checking out Gretch gear, a real guitar hero showed up... Duane Eddy! responsible for activating my twang gene back when I was a young farm boy in Illinois.


Eddy was scheduled to play at one of the after hours events, which we declined because we were hammered after fighting the madness all day (interestingly, the punks "dress up" for the NAMM event... a formal engagement for that group of folks... makes for some interesting people watching).

Also in the Gretch area was a small stage... one performance we caught was from Paul Pigat, a Canadian rockabilly star... a great player!


We also saw a performance from Magnolia Memoir, a rather excellent jazz-pop group. Willis occasionally plays with them and is on their upcoming CD. MM also has a rather excellent web site, check it out.

As well as high styling punks, the metal gods were present. Interesting display for gear oriented to that genre...


Well, I guess that's an awful sketchy report from NAMM. But the event is soooooo overwhelming! Thankfully we can always come back for sex (the Gretch Girl, signing posters for herself and the gear)...


I'm breathless...

I'm in a love/hate relationship with digital memory because of how prices are always dropping. I absolutely hate buying Micro SD Cards for my R4 / R4i at (what seems to be) a crazy bargain price only to see it become a whole lot cheaper a couple of weeks later.
