Ever Been To A Kentucky Redneck Rave?

Tower of Pisa, London.


What exactly is a Redneck Rave? Well, it’s a party. Clearly. But not just any regular party, or rave for that matter.

It’s a 5-day festival produced by country rap musician/concert promoter Justin Time, and the first one took place recently in Edmonson County, Kentucky. It’s marketed as “America’s wildest and craziest country party,” and wow did it live up to its name. Many attendees were arrested for drug possession. One man strangled a woman while fighting over a blanket. Another got his throat slit. And someone else was impaled through his abdomen.

Does it sound like a good time? Or a nightmare? The Sheriff said they immediately found meth and marijuana when doing routine searches as cars arrived. Some attendees lost fingers and broke bones, but incredibly, there were no deaths reported. Overall, 48 people were charged including 30 for drugs/alcohol. But don’t worry, if you missed this one – there is another Redneck Rave booked for October! You can read the full story from Consequence of Sound here.
