A Guide to Asheville

Mountain Oasis Electronic Music Summit edition Hilly Street: Lose your companions? Check Hilly Street where you last saw them. Walk up and down Hilly Street until you find them.

Take a minute to look at the top of the monument. Is it waving side to side? This is a good sign! You are on your way back to where you last were!

People Who Don’t Get It: Up and down Hilly Street and around Tall Pointy Monument Thing are grey people shuffling about. They are not dancing. They do not have faraway eyes. They don’t worship Guy Dancing Behind Computer on Stage! What are they doing? Don’t they get it? No. They are People Who Don’t Get It.
