Experiencing The 2012 NAMM Show

On top of said gear, what makes the National Association of Music Merchant’s trade show particularly special as compared to, say, a pharmaceutical industry convention, is the allure of star power – the high-profile musicians endorsed by these companies, walking amongst the attendees, conducting demonstrations, performing in concerts, signing autographs, and generally appearing badass.

It’s a grandiose event – a who’s who of music product companies. But you can’t get a ticket. After all, NAMM is supposed to be exclusive, not for the general public.

And then there’s me – the UG writer sent to cover the event over two days. After learning I got the assignment and jumping into a mid-air freeze frame with a victorious extended fist over my head, my initial excitement about this promising opportunity quickly turned to underlying anxiety; once I started researching event, the sheer magnitude NAMM became largely apparent. I scanned the extensive exhibitor list and read the artist appearance/performance schedule; it was going to be tough to capture everything at NAMM, which ended up drawing a crowd of 95,709 registered attendees and 1,441 exhibitors.
