On October 6 MercyMe provided an unplugged, energetic set for radio industry VIPs (Clear Channel, Salem/KLTY, Infinity, Moody, Country Music Broadcasters, WMHK among others) and key radio personalities such as John Tesh and Delilah during the Christian Music Broadcasters (CMB) Reception. The CMB reception was held at the Hyatt Grand Manchester in San Diego in conjunction with the National Association of Broadcasters Radio Show.

This special showcase was presented by CMB, INO Records, Curb Records and McVay Media.. The award-winning band performed 40 minutes including the radio mega-hit "I Can Only Imagine," current top 10 single, "Here With Me" and the forthcoming single, "Homesick." MercyMe also interacted with the attendees with a meet-and-greet and Q & A hosted by Heather Lloyd (KPRZ San Diego). They were able to present their faith and discuss their experience with their mainstream crossover success.

MercyMe became one of the fastest-selling new artists in Christian music history with their release of ALMOST THERE in the fall of 2000.
