Butch Robins and the World International Bluegrass Band pleased hundreds of bluegrass music fans at Rockwood Manor at Dublin, VA, on September 26th. On a stage laden with flags of the several countries that members are from, they played several crowd-favorites, while introducing some of their own renditions.

Folks of all ages danced throughout the candle-light evening, under the fall harvest moon.  The group's autographs were in high demand, especially on the CD's and t-shirts that sold swiftly.  They will continue their tour through parts of Southwest, VA, before treking to many USA and international venues.
