Isn't Keith Whitley from right across the river from Portsmouth too?

Conley spent some time in West Portsmouth, I'm not sure when ? They've got a park named after him. And yes I think Whitley was from N. Kentucky somewhere ? Billy Ray Cyrus grew up in Flatwoods Kentucky fairly close. He hang out in his early days around Ironton Ohio and Huntington W.V. A buddy of mine, Ohio St. Trooper, arrested him for DUI one night coming out of some honky tonk.

The Judds I believe grew up in N. Kentucky.
