January 18 thru 21 '07 NAMM, Anaheim, CA
4 days of equipment overload. The biggest music tradeshow in the world! And that it was indeed. More and more products every year.
SPECIAL APPEARANCE DURING NAMM WEEKEND BY "THE SHREDMISTRESS"
4th Annual Guitargeekfestival Saturday, January 20th, 8pm
along with the greatest country / blues and surf guitarists alive, put on by Deke Dickerson of Guitar Player Magazine.
Held at the Jolly Rogers Hotel Ballroom, Anaheim, it was a sold out event. I shared the stage with such legends like Brian Lonbeck, Kid Ramos, the amazing Herb Wellington on pedal steel, the Ventures, and Deke Dickerson to name just a few. I provided 20 minutes of pure "shredding" to this otherwise "vintage mix" which was rather well received I believe. Check their webseite for this most amazing line up AND... If you missed it... too bad. This was amazing! A once in a lifetime experience!
