Virginia’s House of Delegates is one of the most gerrymandered bodies in the country. In 2017, Democrats won the statewide popular vote in Virginia’s legislative races by over nine percentage points. Nevertheless, Republicans still held a 51-49 majority in the House of Delegates, thanks to gerrymandering.
But Virginia Democrats may actually get to compete in something approximating free and fair elections next year, thanks to a pair of documents handed down by a federal court on Friday.
The neo-nazi who drove his car into a crowd of counter-protesters and murdered Heather Heyer was found guilty of first-degree murder and a bunch of other charges and will die in prison, Happy Hanukka.
Baby Igor’s were Blacksburg best (only?) heavy punk spoken-sung band with a groove. Drummer Ed was/is in Shades Apart and Baby Igor was his college band. Track 3 (X-Ray) might have the best hardcore Blacksburg guitar solo ever!

One real blast from the past which I was surprised/impressed to see somebody had put up on Bandcamp. I used to have a copy of this (from when I was in HS), but it was among the collection my dad never shipped to me after I moved–and then they had a fire! 😧 Didn’t expect to see it again. It doesn’t sound half bad all these years later.
(Baby Igor also had one 7" released on Squealer, which isn’t here AFAICT.)
Blacksburg Rock Music also has some other interesting stuff up there, which I really don’t need to get started into after 4 a.m. 🙄
Music created by punk/alternative bands based in BBurg from ‘91-‘97.
Some sound rough, goal is to document what was going on at the time.
