Good to see you are still active in the business (you haven't updated/changed your sig). We would like to catch up with you if possible.
I'd like to pick your brains a bit if you don't mind.

NAMM is over! YAY! My feet and back are tired, but I sure enjoyed seeing so many friends. So sorry I couldn't talk with you, Frank - you caught me at a time I really had to be elsewhere.
Bear was hanging out in the Young Chang booth quite a bit - perhaps an announcement in that regard is pending.
Steve Cohen visited a few times, and we shared a nice meal out - I got to hear all his favorite stories!
Some very fun music making in the 'Lounge 88' area - a stage and seating area in the 3rd floor (mostly) piano exhibit area.
The piano exhibits were smaller again this year, but there were still plenty of very nice pianos being seen and played and heard. I may be slightly biased, but I thought the Kawai pianos were the nicest. :-) But I did enjoy playing instruments by Yamaha, Mason & Hamlin, Fazioli, Seiler, Brodmann, Young Chang, Hailun, Pearl River, and a few others.
Time to prop my feet up and rest a little - but it's back to the office tomorrow morning.
