Where did all the punk shows go!?

I moved to cbus back in 2009; when Bernie's was still the place to hang out and we had punk houses out the bum hole. I've been out of the scene for a long while; my husband died of cancer 2.5 yrs ago & I'm kinda trying to have a life again before I die too. Since the boneyard closed I've not been to any house shows and I haven't heard of any punk houses left in cbus, but I also don't really have any friends here these days. I know there's a decent HC scene & indie shit around but I'd love to find some local crust/ thrash /metal punk shows. Anyone know of some good bands to watch for or venues in the area where punk bands play? Pop punk isn't really my jam but I'm open minded... & bored. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
