"Got the Mule Skinner Blues? Then grab your fiddle and hightail it to western Virginia for a toe-tappin', knee-slappin' good time at the historic country, bluegrass and "old time" music venues that speckle the landscape between the Blue Ridge and Appalachian mountain ranges." - Trip 14 of Lonely Planet USA's Best Trips (Regional Travel Guide) by Sara Benson, Amy Balfour, Alison Bing, Jennifer Denniston, Lisa Dunford, Alex Leviton, David Ozanich, Danny Palmerlee, Brandon Presser, Karla Zimmerman.
