NAMM 2022

[D30Man]

Just a quick note that I will be at NAMM in a vendor capacity setting up for a client and will be there through first show day, 06/03. I will get over to the Cordoba booth. I will get some pics and report back on anything newsworthy.

This is my first time. I am super excited.

Hoping so folks. Events by and large have seen some attendee attrition since the pandemic. However, I am hopeful folks will want to show up in a big way like I have seen at medical events.

I've gone to NAMM several times, and I like going on Thursday and Friday only. Saturday was a zoo; they seem to let anyone and everyone in. I saw young families walking around with toddlers. Come on, it's a trade show, after all. Some of the exhibitors were angry about the huge Saturday crowd, and the fact that they had to spend too much time answering questions by "civilians." Ron Dunnett told me he was angry about it, back in 2008.

I think my NAMM days are over, although I could go anytime as DW's guest. Maybe next year.

Actually its in Anaheim, CA. However, it has been since 2019 since they held an in-person NAMM so hopefully folks are chomping at the bit.

I don't do well in large crowds or cities but this is an event I'd love to see someday. Good on you D 30Man. Have a great time!!!

During the New Hartford era Guild used to participate primarily in the winter NAMM show. I hope participation in summer NAMM is having good results for CMG.
