Life at the NAMM show

The National Association of Music Merchants holds an expo / trade show called the NAMM Show, that I helped cover for Create Digital Music. Apparently it’s the largest music products trade show in the entire United States. Judging from the traffic outside the convention center and the number of chain hotels in the area it makes sense. This funny poster we found posted outside the entrance is completely ironic–Anaheim is just someone with a Photoshop clone brush and a JPG of a strip mall.

That being said, NAMM itself was pretty cool. Here’s Peter Kirn and I’s overview: The NAMM Win and Fail lists.
