Nice report Mike. How about a YouTube live report a la Mitch Gallagher?

Thanks Mike - great as always. I was glad you mentioned the Gig Gloves
and you are so right about how important our hands are relative to the
cost of these gloves. I think I need a pair even though I am not a roadie.

He has a job. I don't. I don't know anything about making videos.
Besides, text is much easier to re-read than a video is to re-watch.

Aw c'mon! Get a selfie stick, put your phone on video record on selfie camera and have at it! I'm pretty sure you can get an app to top and tail, and then it's pretty easy to upload to your YouTube channel (which is pretty easy to setup as well!)

They might not read like it, but I revise those show reports (as well as
reviews and articles) many times over before I push the Publish button.
When I'm writing a show report, I don't have the device in hand and I'm
constantly going between the literature, web site, and my notes. If I
stood in front of a camera and just talked, it would be like a slick
salesman giving a presentation, and I'm not that. And it's much easier
and faster to edit text than to edit a video.

Just no. Video is for when you are trying to sell something.

I've occasionally found an instructional video to be useful, and I
suppose a video of Mitch Gallagher getting a demo of a product could be
a bit like being there, but there are already plenty of show reports
like that, mostly individual videos about single products or a single
manufacturer's booth.

Like an interview with Dan Kennedy in a loud Chinese restaurant?

Good stuff. You might want to put this in a thread of it's own.
