I'm going attend the July NAMM show in Nashville. I'm interested in
checking out a lot of booths and I'm curious, how big is the summer
NAMM show? I've never attended. Could I see it all in one day, or
will it take 2 or 3 days?

Thanks for any info you can send.

I haven't been to the summer Namm in about 4 years, but the last time I went
It could be done in a day.
Nashville is a cool place to see some famous pickers.

Depends on how curious you are.... It's not as big as Anaheim, but you
theoretically could spend 3 days there if you have alot of business to
conduct, plus checking out things out of curiousity. I'm looking at
maybe Friday, all day Saturday... that should do. It's not as big as
it was back in the Atlanta days, if that helps...

Anyone else from here going to be there?

It's July 23-25(Friday-Sunday)

I'll be there. Mondoslug(me) is also playing that weekend. I'll be playing with
my Jazz/Rock instrumental band, "Big Pants People" at Bean Central Fri/Sat,
July 23/24. Definitely a NON-NAMM event. It's just a gig. It's at a very small
coffee house on West End near Vandy, but the bands good IMO. Come on by if in
the neigborhood.

Hey, cool... I'm going to be up there with some friends that play in
fusion groups.. Could you be more specific about directions?

The "bands"? When is your band going to be there, specifically? I
haven't seen a band of someone's from the Net yet, that would be
really interesting.

Bean Central is at 2817 West End which is a main drag. It's a couple of miles
from the actual NAMM show but still downtown. 5 minutes car ride tops.

Sorry, my mistake. Didn't do well in English...ever. The bands(band's) as in
the one I'm in, "Big Pant's People".
We'll be there Fri and Sat night from 8:30-10:30pm(or close).

Hi Gang,

Not to burst anyone's NAMM bubble, but it is NOT open to the public. It is
strictly a trade show, for manufacturers, reps, and dealers. You must have
a NAMM badge to get in.

There are many sites that do great web coverage of the show, including my
friends at Harmony Central http://www.harmony-central.com

Brian:

Thanks for the info. I figured that would be the case! Staying with
the inlaws ... never a break.

I'm thinking about trying to catch mondoslug's fusion band, which I
think is playing "somewhere" there... (I haven't looked to see if
there is a followup). It'd be "interesting" to see some Usenet
regulars...

Is that down by Gruhn's, "sort of"? I'll be able to find this street
easily from the convention center?

In that case- I love anyone who is going to Nashville NAMM and has no one on
their guest list... I've got a birthday coming up if anyone wants to be REAL
nice.... heh heh... talk about wishful thinking...
