]I’m a member and go every year. I have done favors for NAMM over the years and could go free but no one wants to talk to anybody without a BUYER badge (I don’t blame them). I need to remind some suppliers who I am. One company president told me I could order his wares through Sweetwater before I told him I buy direct and have an account with him… stuff like that.

Many companies I do business with no longer exhibit, unfortunately. Also, losing Sunday put quite a damper on events surrounding the show. Can’t say that anything excited me—usually there’s something. I enjoy hanging out with old friends and colleagues like Ren Ferguson and Greg Deering, though.
