The NAMM SHOW day 2 wrapped up with “the hottest ticket” live show at NAMM with the NAMMJAM 2015 at the fabulous City National Grove of Anaheim on Friday , January 23, 2015.
Performances to NAMMJAM 2015 included the unmistakable Jazz and R&B sound and vibe of Nick Colionne, Las Vegas Alternative Hard Rock quintet Otherwise, and with their first US performance in ten years The Swedish Sleaze rockers, Hardcore Superstar.
After a quick break the industry invite only crowd was offered a little treat of eye candy with a unique spin on a fashion show by Jonny Coffin’s AFFLICTION Rock-n-Roll lifestyle clothing brand. Want to know where to buy some of these awesome wears, click here..

Headlining the evening was none other than American glam metal band, Steel Panther, who are funny satirical musical legends of their own time. Steel Panther brought on a couple guest guitarists through the night to the amazement of the crowd. First guest and biggest surprise was the one and only EX-Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman. Steel Panther Guitarist, Satchel , announced that since Marty has been living in Japan he would be an “Expert on a Song we wrote,… called Asain Hooker” Everyone in Agreement they dove right in.
