all in all, a fun couple of hours. A couple of other observations:
(1) it is a madhouse there- tons of people.
(2) The people at Boveda are really nice and offered me a cup of coffee.
(3) The folks at Music Nomad are super friendly as well.
(4) Saw a lot of our ukulele celebrities, including the folks from the Ukulele site, and youtube stars
(5) The Gator pro gig bags are really nice!
(6) Ohana had a huge display and they are introducing a tenor pineapple shape.
(7) there were a lot of Chinese import manufacturers with what looked like the same import ukes with just different names. I didn't stop by, but they looked kind of the same.
(8) There are way way way way more guitar people in this world than ukulele people. wow.
well, I'm not sure if I'm heading back this year. I wouldn't know where to start looking for other random things, like strings, tuners, etc. Hope my fellow UU forum users enjoy my pictures and observations.
Cheers!
