What'd you miss this weekend? It was a music-filled one for us, starting with the music-industry extravaganza that is the
NAMM Show at the Anaheim Convention Center, continuing on to the
Guitar Player's Ball at the Galaxy Concert Theatre and finishing off with
Fu Manchu. (Check back later for John Doe photos!)
Photos and more info after the jump!

Ah,
the NAMM Show: It's an all-things-music industry show, closed to the general public, that's attended by "rock stars" (subject to debate at times) and all the biggest and best in the business. This year's sightings include everyone from Dave Navarro and, of course, Bootsy Collins to awkward moments of booth babes and Kerry King. All images by Andrew Youssef.
