The NAMM SHOW January 2013 Anaheim, CA was quite a big adventure!
I got to meet all my endorsers, see old friends, play a little music and listen to great music.
I played at the JodyJazz Mouthpiece booth with alto great and founder Jody Espina, the Eastman Guitars booth with Jon Pisano and solo 7-String guitar and at the Hammond Organ booth with Dr. Lonnie Smith. Also I worked for the Thelonious Monk Jazz Institute teaching amazing students at Los Angeles County School for the Arts. It was over the top with people (100,000), constant music,
people I hadn't seen in years and endless walking through miles and miles of booths!
