All I know is that everyone I know who actually lives near the river or the Blue Ridge bitched for months about the song placing those places in West Virginia instead of Western Virginia..and just because a songwriter misplaces a geographical location doesn't mean the river actually moved to West Virginia.
And as for living there, I lived in Virginia before you were born so perhaps I have some grasp of what is where.
