MA, we had one not far from there once. She dropped in long enough to advertise her new CD and then left. The only ACTIVE Virginia members I know are both in Charlottesville. They are Mrrzy and BeauDangles. I sort of claim dual citizenship because while I am living in West Virginia, I still have a home in Charlottesville.

Roanoke is an interesting city (the second largest city in Virginia, I believe) with a broad spectrum of interests represented there. If you like city life, I think you'll enjoy it there. The Roanoke Civic Center (or I think that's what they call it) is one of the few venues in the state that can handle the large audiences drawn by some of the popular musical artists and other major shows. There are many small clubs in town of nearly all types. However, I am not aware of any that are folk oriented.

Best of luck to you in your move.
