Show us your Bluegrass Country Bumper Sticker

Dave Staples

Dave Staples started listening to WAMU bluegrass when he was a dental student at Georgetown University. Now that he’s living in his hometown of Dover, New Hampshire, he listens on BluegrassCountry.org Thanks Dave for telling everyone in the Granite State about WAMU’s Bluegrass Country.

WAMU’s Bluegrass Country bumper stickers have been spotted all over the world, in all kinds of places; instrument cases, computer monitors and, yes, even on car bumpers. Send a picture of you and your bumpersticker for our webpage to Katy Daley (katydaley at wamu.org). And thanks for telling people you listen!
