In January, the always-huge annual NAMM show welcomed thousands of exhibitors to the Anaheim Convention Center for four days of performances, demos, lectures, and programs. Jason Mraz and Ted Nugent performed, and numerous celebrities appeared: Slash, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Wonder, and more.

“The 2010 NAMM Show is the go-to event of the year for serious music and sound product professionals from around the globe,” says NAMM President and CEO Joe Lamond. “They will benefit from their NAMM Show experience by networking with their peers, getting the first look at the best new products for the year ahead, and by experiencing the music, concerts and parties that set NAMM apart from every other show in the world.”
