WV traditional musicians have a strong sense of county affiliation. It can be fun to hear Clay County musicians (e.g., Wilson Douglas) talk about Braxton County musicians (e.g. Ernie Carpenter) talk about Pocahontas County musicians (e.g., Eddn & Burl Hammons) as if they are from a different planet. If you are familiar with the music you can hear the stylistic differences even though they all sound like WV fiddlers. This sense of county affiliation carries over in a lesser degree to the indigenous population (as opposed to tourists, retirees, and carpetbaggers) as a whole.
