I've been thru Ashland at night before, and let me tell you, it looked like the intro to Blade Runner. Sans the flying cop cruiser. Actually, eastern Kentucky gives me a strange vibe anyway. But, I'm sure the guitar will rock.
There is this little music festival thing that I go out there for every year. A bunch of online aquaintances from all over the place, and it's way out of the way - not really in Ashland, just sort of close to Ashland. Camping, BBQ, music, drunkeness, etc. Good stuff.
