Here's Ms. Vanimal with Elliot. What a sweetheart...

Balta's fave singer is Paulina Rubio and her whole band "just happened" to come by to say hello. Here is Paulina's bass player and Musical Director, Andreas Geck.

We love GML... George and I gotta show some love to the Familia Sanchez who build all the GML gear here at Manley Labs.

Wow how cool to see the legendary David Pack and Paulina's keyboardist Mike Whittaker come by.

 

This Is Ryan Shaw!  Man, he's hot! AND from Atlanta.

Manny JR and Vanimal looking cooler than you.

Erica from UA came over to check out our RACK.

Paul? Your new girlfriend?    At least her eyes match your TUBES RULE lanyard.

OK I remember the steak tasted incredible at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, but I don't remember much else at dinner with Erica and Matt from Universal Audio and our shared French importers, Wes and Fred from Jukebox.   It was the bourbon consumed at the close of the show with Josh and Tristan from Rupert Neve Designs, Fred and Wes from Jukebox and Craig from TapeOp that caused the brain shutdown a few hours later, captured here on film....

NAMM is always a blast.... see ya next year.
