NAMM '10 -- Who's going?

Sign in to disble this ad
So with NAMM approaching fast, who's all going and why? And if you've been to one already, what did you think?

As for myself, I currently work at a music store so getting in through them (my boss and one other is going I believe) wouldn't have been hard except I just don't want to take the time off school especially with the first week of the new semester starting.

Plus I don't think I'd be able to control myself with all that cool new gear everywhere. GAS would be the end of me...

It's cool. Tons of stuff. I'll be there. I'll also be as the bass bashes too. Maybe if we're lucky Tom Bowlus will let me 'borrow' his camera again.

I could but can't afford the plane trip, lodging. My drummer builds custom drums.

I'll be there. It should be a great time! I've got for a decade or so, but this will be my first time to attend the Bass Bash!

I'm going to be there with my university's music business club!

and steve, your out of luck, as you need to be with a member organization and have registered before early December. but you could show up for the bass bashes on the 14th and 15th.

Bob Lee (BassLanD) will be there too. Not to be confused with my Buddies "QSC" and "Hot Wheels". I'll be around the MTD booth. PM me if you want to exchange cell phone numbers so that fellow talk bassers will be in communication.

Lucky? That is your definition of "lucky?" I think not, good sir!

Of course, I will be out at the NAMM Show, and also at the Bass Bash both nights.
