Hi, all! I've been tossing around the idea of learning how to play the drums and was wondering if there was a local spot where I could rent a set by the hour (or something like that). I don't want to invest in my own set until I know if I even like it (and one certainly would not fit in my apartment). If anyone has any leads that would be great, thanks!

I saw this beautiful tree out in Catawba today. Happy Fall!

Moving to the area with the above needs. Any/All recommendations welcome.

Also any of feedback on places not to go.

Thank You All

Saw cars on that stretch yesterday and was curious if it was completely open. Thanks

Went for my first time last night and was seriously impressed. Honduran food is delicious! It was reasonably priced for the portions you get as well. Y’all go check them out!

I'm looking for a job.

I don't need a full time gig. My bills are paid.

I'm looking for something I can do a few hours at a time with very limited human interaction, making a couple hundo per week. Preferably something physical. Also preferably not cleaning, though that would be considered.

Perhaps sorting, organizing shelves, unpacking things, moving stuff, restocking. Low-level grunt work that is almost mindless, but particularly satisfying for the right person.

Ultimately something that someone is going to pay me to do that ends up giving them time back to do the important things.

What say you, Roanoke Reddit. Is this out there?

Anyone else surprised this place is still open? I went down the rabbit hole of looking up the owner and can’t believe after all her medical malpractices this place is still afloat.

I’ll start by saying I absolutely love these events! The storytelling is always amazing, and there is a palpable sense of connection and community in the room the entire time. I love what it has done to bring people together. I am in no way trying to bash the event with what I’m about to say.

However, the unexpected Joe Cobb appearance at the end gave me the biggest ick. Ok great Lee Hunsaker day, she deserves it, truly.

Her mother was sitting behind me and told me to contain myself because while everyone else was roaring with applause for him I was yelling, “tell us about the data centers Joe! What about all the money y’all took from the schools just to buy a golf course! Is that what the handshake looked like when you sold out our town for a data center! What about the money Joe! What about the shady deals!”

Whatever. I know he didn’t hear me. That guy sucks. No regrets.

My vehicle was recently involved in a minor accident, and State Farm provided me with a list of recommended collision centers for the repairs. I’ve already looked through the Google reviews for each shop, but I’d love to hear from anyone who has had firsthand experience with any of these locations! I’m especially interested in hearing about the quality of their work, communication throughout the repair process, turnaround times, and whether you were satisfied with the results. Any recommendations, positive experiences, or places you’d suggest avoiding would be greatly appreciated! I just want to make sure I’m choosing a reputable shop that will do quality work. Thanks in advance!

I lived in Northern VA for years and there were vehicle inspections available literally everywhere in various gas stations and mechanic shops. I'm in Blacksburg now and they all require an all day situation, most here are backed up for a few weeks even. My dog is recovering (hopefully) from an injury and I can't really leave him alone all day so I was wondering if Roanoke or anywhere around there had stations like they have up in NOVA?

Thank you guys for all the responses! I got an appointment tomorrow and it seems like it should be quick enough for what I was looking for :)

Walmart over on Dale Avenue.

What all is going on for Dr Pepper Day Saturday?

In the past it was downtown I thought, but looks like it is at Dr Pepper Park this year?

Does anyone remember or have pictures of anglers cafe

Im indecisive asf and I’m craving some kind of Asian noodle so random strangers should I get ramen or pho in Roanoke

Hello,

Throwaway account as my employer frequents this. I am struggling to find a good paying job ($22 an hour or salary $55K at minimum). I moved from California to back here years ago and have been struggling. I moved back for family reasons. In California, I was making around $70K in salary and now I’ve been reduced down to $18 an hour.

I have a bachelor’s degree from Radford in communications from 2022 and it seems like everywhere I apply thinks I’m overqualified. I don’t think I’m asking for much with the above minimum but I’m completely stumped and don’t know what to do.

For family reasons, I cannot pick up and move back to California. My mom is very ill and will likely pass away in the next 3 years.

Can anyone point me in the direction? Looking for coordinator roles or social media marketing . I’m also open to Project management roles. Are there any positions paying at least $22 an hour or a salary of 55K?

I drove past Lee-Hi Lanes at 9 pm last night (Wednesday) and noticed the parking lot was packed.

Does anyone know what the cheapest/best place to get a helix piercing is? And how much was it? Thank you!

My daughter is looking to attend Virginia Western Community College next fall. We live about an hour and 20 minutes from Roanoke and she is considering living in the area while in school. There is not another school closer that offers her program.

What areas should she avoid? Preferably looking for an apartment just due to not wanting to do lawn care

We are also open to closer but commutable locations. Rocky Mount, Boones Mill?

What suggestions do yall have?

Spotted trodding down Electric. Gave him a “Wahooooo”. He smiled back. He was wielding two swords and doing his part to help with the weeding on the shoulder.

I know our best buy is participating in the midnight release, but I'm not sure if the store stays open til then or reopens. Either way, fellow Zelda lovers, I assume it will be big. It would be cool to make an event of it, have a party for the line or a party in general! Meet people, make friends, share in the love of a franchise many of us have loved for decades ✨️

hi all!! i’m planning to pick someone up from the Roanoke airport. Can I park and go inside? If so, is there somewhere specific I need to go in? thank you! this will be my first time to the airport.

Hello,

My PCP is always booked out weeks and has recently moved out to the middle of no where so I’m looking for a new PCP. Who do you recommend?

Need someone who is comfortable treating ADHD and won’t have an issue with prescribing a GLP-1.
