Over 2023, there was a lot purchased, including the purchase and build of the wavetool rack, but there will be another post just for that later. Focusing on Amazon purchases, here are my top finds.
Ultimate Ears Boom 3 Portable Waterproof Bluetooth speaker Seriously, this little guy is a pocket rock for quick BGM on a bump in or load out; anyone can connect with their phone (hate to state the obverse), and then Spotify has a cool feature called 'jam' where you can co-lab with your friends and all pick the music.
The Best books in the industry
Click the photos for a link, but seriously John Huntington did suck a great job putting both of these together. It is definitely a must-have.
INKEE Falcon Plus Action Cameras Gimbal Stabilizer, Compatible with GoPro 11/10/9/8/7/6/5 Osmo Action Insta 360, GoPro Media Mode 9H Battery Life Wireless Control USB-C Universal Charging
This is by far the best Gimbal I have ever used in this price range; it is easy to set up and use, and the battery lasts for ages.
Packing Cubes, 9 Set Packing Cubes with Shoe Bag & Electronics Bag - Luggage Organizers Suitcase Travel Accessories (Navy Blue) As much as packing for a tour or travel gets easier; this item makes organising so much easier, finding smaller items like undies and socks really fast.
It's a Cute cup that makes me giggle every time i see it in my office; it's also a great gift for anyone in the industry.
So there is my top finds this year, there were actually MANY more but they all fit in the Draws case post, so more on that later, I hope you get reading John's brilliant work whilst listening to some relaxing music on your new UE boom speaker and drinking some tea in your new mug.
