Press Conference in front of NAMM, 11am
Today was the first official day of NAMM, and the Cort workers were gathered outside, launching an 11 am press conference.
Thinking about last year’s actions at NAMM, it seems the weather always gets warmer around NAMM. This is great for us, since we spend all of the day outside Anaheim Convention Center.
