Bluegrass Country Open House a Success!

On June 22, from 9a.m. - 3 p.m. Bluegrass Country held its first ever Open House in Northwest, D.C. We’re thankful that the weather cooperated, all forecasts had called for rain or thunderstorms, but it turned out to be a pretty nice day. Five bands performed on a stage nestled in the flower gardens out on our front lawn.

An estimated 300 people toured the studios and saw where and how the hosts work, using CDs, LPs and a computer program with a library of about 25,000 titles. Many of the tours went right into the air studio and talked with Lee Michael Demsey, Bill Foster, Fred Bartenstein, Tom Cat Reeder, Bob Webster, Echo Propp, Trevor Whitney and Katy Daley about how shows were put together.

Of course, it’s not a party without refreshments and party favors. We had those, too. Visitors went home with goodie bags with bumperstickers and CDs. And three lucky people won HD Radios.

If you missed the Open House, check out the gallery and listen to Open Mic. This week, you can hear a set from all of the bands who performed for us on the lawn of our building.
