Kentucky:Lexington
From Louisville Punk/Hardcore History
Revision as of 10:37, 28 March 2005 by 12.222.231.107 (talk)
Lexington, KY is a little less than an hour away from downtown Louisville. Several bands from Louisville play there quite a bit and kids in Lexington consider Louisville and Lex to be one in the same because of the short distance.
Lexington, taking after E-Town, has been both a source and a haven for members of Louisville bands, including former National Acrobat member Phil Stosberg and former Kodan Armada guitarist Adam Rains. Interesting fact: Bad Brains singer H.R. lived in Lexington for a brief stint in 1999.
