any word on Brian showin up at NAMM '10?

Last yr the only semblance of Brian my son and I saw at NAMM '09 was this poster at the Gretsch booth and running into Berney Kessel and Spazz. If you hear any words in the
wind... whisper them to me!

last yr:

Come out to Burbank Friday night. I know one person who might be able to answer that for you.

My wife and I will be at the Elvis Birthday show tomorrow night in Burbank, should be fun.

How does one get into the NAMM show, I have always heard about it, looks like a great show, but have no idea how to get into the show.



Have A Gretsch Day !

RR, Its an amazing time but unfortunately its not open to the public as
its an industry only thing unless you have a manufacturer or music store buddy that ordered you a badge with your name on it. (although if you have business license related to the music industry you can register next week)
A few yrs back I use to be able to hand my pass to a friend on sunday afternoon but now they check IDs in and out.
I imagine if you are preppy with blond hair and blue eyes at least 5'10" and have an armani suit on you could walk straight through most of the doors.. everyone else gets
near cavity searched.

If you fit this description and are wearking an armani suit in orange
county it means you are a:
" corporate interior designer" or "wedding planner" or "male" escort

Haha, I don't even think about buying an armani suit^^

When talking German I have a strong bavarian accent but
I was told I don't have a strong German accent when talking english, but if I want I can talk like the guy from RRRRRRRRamstein and also like some snobbish museum guy if I want
Just get me over there and I'll get you to any place you want to go to at NAMM^^

sounds like a plan.. we'll drink tons of beer and I'll talk in a german "mike myers sprockets" accent and you can walk around and address every one "Duuude, waatsup bro!"

The only downside is that I would not be allowed to drink beer in the USA
But if you ever get to Germany we can have some (many) beers and rock out! I'll give you a free tour of munich!

You would feel even taller in Italy!
But seriously, come to the Frankfurt Musikmesse as a Pedalbuilder and then visit munich!

If I had the dough that would be my preferred direction in life. Guitar trade show exhibitor, instead of builder! someday!

He was far too busy getting his cuddle time, I mean it was just ridiculous..

but that was
last yr. He about a foot taller and his voice is getting deeper so I think they'll find him
in the "threat" catagory like the rest of us.

what kind of "industry" show you talking about??
riiiiiiiiggghhhtt........

Its a rock n roll industry, although its usually the companies that arent top of the
heap that utilize ample supplies of Booth Babes!
peace,
tv

It use to be Sex Drugs and Rock'nRoll.
Now its more like Aids Crack and Techno.

I'm sorry, Tavo. I just don't see your son in those pix. Maybe you uploaded the wrong ones.
