Bravo! Birchmere! Bluegrass!
Looking for the best bluegrass bands in America? Head to the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. Short of the nationally known festivals, this is arguably the finest venue in the country for bluegrass.
Name them: Del McCoury, Mac Wiseman, Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, Ricky Scaggs, JD Crowe & The New South, Ralph Stanley and Clinch Mountain, Seldom Scene, Nashville Bluegrass Band and a long list of other genre greats have played there.
The next time you're in Washington, D.C. area, head to the Birchmere. You'll join knowledgeable "strangers" at your table, where all of you are fans who're ordering food, sipping favorites and chatting away until showtime. Several hundred others are scattered among long, cloth-covered tables like yours and--like you and your pals--are getting to know the folks seated beside them. When the show starts, everyone gets to see and hear the act; there ain't no bad seats at the Birchmere, y'all.
Hope to see you there sometime!
The Birchmere, 3701 Mount Vernon Ave., Alexandria, Va.; 1-703-549-7500; http://www.birchmere.com/.
