GPB Is So Friendly

On the first evening of the recent Public Radio Program Directors (PRPD) conference in Atlanta, Georgia Public Broadcasting held a welcome reception. I estimate about 200 people attended. The food included tasty small desserts, meats and cheeses, breads and a station where they made a gourmet corn salad dish.  The open bar got everyone really loosened up.

It was really fun and a good informal venue to meet new people.  I got to meet the "public broadcasting" famous Rick Steves. There was a great jazz band there laying down a smooth jam.  It's a great gig that gets your band in front of a bunch of radio station programmers!
