I just attended Augusta Heritage Center's Blues Week in Elkins, WV with my son, who plays guitar. I don't play an instrument (I took an outdoor cooking class). I was so taken with the music all around me (including hearing Steve James on mandolin) that I have purchased a '95 Flatiron Cadet and am hoping to take beginner lessons. Are there folks here from the Charleston WV area who get together to play? The last thread I could find on the subject was over five years old.
