i, for one, would nix charlottesville, just because that is the spawning 
ground of dave matthews band (whom i hate), but admittedly, i know very 
little more about the scene. that bis aside, my pic for up and coming 
college band in CH definitely goes to Cities. you can check them out here:

they've recently been signed toYepRoc while in the process of 
self-recording adn releasing an EP (which, i believe will now become a 
YepRoc project.

dig it.
