NAMM

This is the National Association of Music Merchants' convention in Anaheim, which I go to most years for no particularly good reason except that I used to be in the biz. It's more fun now that I don't have to go every year. Nowadays, I scarcely play any instruments at the show, as I'm generally more fascinated with the visuals. These pictures are from the 2006 and 2007 shows.

Great series. Particularly "Hi-Hat".

Nice Paul! I like 5X5 and the Horn section has even more photos in the photo.

It looks like you really have "the move" ! I love your abstract images of the instruments.
