Excellent. Love seeing new life in old Grateful Dead tunes. what a trip.
6:58 I get chills. That and the beginning just had me emotional it’s so awesome
Billy Strings seems to be everywhere. Congratulations!
Long live great music!
Billy Strings has taken over. He now represents the grateful dead. Probly have people on “ Billy tour”.
You know it!!!!
Absolutely 💯
Yes ik multiple ppl who've seen him over 100 times following him around
Yes 🙌
I've already seen him 13 times and I'm a 48 year old head who saw Garcia with the dead 16 times. This kid is like the rebirth of the head lifestyle. We need Billy Strings right now. Trippy chords with his now 5 instrument set-up? ALWAYS sound great to me!!!
Genius! What a masterful blend of melody, instrumentalism, musicality and show production! Bravo!
Can't get enough of this young guy........
DUDE! Billy really is a gift man.
That kid is truly amazing I love listening to him
Superb cover. Wonderful performance by all.
Two of my favorites are Cassidy and Thunder....never get tired of listening to either!!!
My daughter Cassidy ❤ flying with the Angels now.we love you Cassidy Jane.
💗
So Sorry. ❤️Cassidy
Am so sorry for loss of your child, but this is a beautiful song done be Billy Strings sounds like he's singing it to her👀💚🍀🪕🎸🎶🎤🪕🎵💚
We have a granddaughter named Cassidy-I want to learn this and sing it to her-awesome rendition, guys!
So much fun!! They played two super killer sets. Couldnt have asked for a better weekend
Really could not have. It was magical musical ride.....weekend!!
Sounded better then the original band ,i no he loves the dead, he will play with anyone its a gift he has and hes embracing it right now, and its his time to really enjoy these years it only comes around once.
@@Michigan.maiden Hoxeyville was great!! But have you seen any of the Ashville Run on youtube??? I wished i could have been there for sure.
great song , great cover !
Insanity! So good!
Wow billy strings? This man is actually a legened i remember when he was only a youtube channel
Best weekend in a very long time ⚡ Thank you Billy , Pham and Hoxeyville 🔥
loving this!
This is amazing!
Whoa 😮didn’t know but now I do! OMDog 😅🎉❤❤❤
Even think I heard some Chuck Berry in there. Man that's pushin' that song. Thanks for posting.
Wow, I feel real GD energy in this.
Outstanding!
Just nails every cover
Much ❤️for Mr William
I am 100% a proud Stringer--
The man is a living legend. Soak it in, it always goes down smooth 😎🤟🤟
Billy can play!
Great middle section jam!
pretty good... and i don't want to sound discouraging here but this has been going on for at LEAST 30 years that i can remember ... i guess I'm glad they are making it work and continuing to carry on the music (and live real music in general!!) but this is nothing above or beyond what has existed for a LONG time, ...in parking lots, college dorms, basements, small regional club scenes, etc etc...
again this is not a criticism, just an observation. (truly)
I LOVE LIVE MUSIC played by MUSICIANS who have feeling... and those in this Utube clip do indeed have IT... and i LOVE that they are keeping musical weekends going...
keep it up ..! ! !
...but don't forget to reach further...
That's actually the point. I've played bluegrass/old country jams in Kentucky where the musicians pull out Dead songs and we just go around the circle surfing the wave of a musical conversation. It's simple and complex music. And it's accessible. Cold Rain and Snow is just two chords and the difference between the way the Dead played it and Tony Rice played it is the order of the chords (which effects what key it's in so you have to check with the banjo player).
Sweetness
that song was made for billy. hope he kicks out an original soon
Billy Strings and Goose are killin the game right now! 🔥💀⚡️🌹
The new and much improved grateful dead
No
Perfect 👌
Is this song about Neal Cassidy of 'On The Road', and 'Merry Prankster' fame?
Partly…. It’s also about Cassidy Law, Eileen’s daughter who was an infant when it was penned
wow
and good night y'all
Dang he smokes the guitar.. 🎶⚡💀👉😁
@3:44 you can hear some dude say “I didn’t think I was gonna dance tonight” then his buddy laughing at him 😂
shit man that roc's
Hate to be a ninny, but sure wish you woulda panned out more to show the rest of the band..................
"Hate to be a ninny but" .
@@mikekelly6117 Hey Mike, it had to be said. But to his credit, he at least recorded it in landscape....so many potentially great vid's are ruined because they were done in vertical....and yes, i bust their chops big time for doing it.....
Don’t hate the videographer or be there for yourself. If you haven’t seen the band then you ain’t a Billy fan
@@ZacTexC Alas, i have seen them....and will see them again in November.... I saw them in 2018, prolly before most jumped on the bandwagon....
And i ain't hating on the videographer....just dishing out some constructive criticism, which hopefully will result in a better final product next time...
Don’t wish someone would do something diff than what they’ve already done. Appreciate what is given is all I’m sayn
I feel like the banjo player didn't get a chance to lead
Do you guys even know the meaning of this song about Neal Cassidy, the driver of the bus? If you did, you'd be like, why are people cashing in playing grateful dead cover songs after the dead horse got beat a LONG LONG LONG time ago? We got tired of the Grateful Dead playing Grateful Dead with Jerry. The Grateful Dead scene will NEVER have anything to do with what it once was. It used to actually MEAN something when we had a puff circle at 4:20 at the panhandle park in San Francisco. It was a spiritual event, which included the possibility of getting busted for herb and going to jail. You could show up broke with no herb, and get in on the circle. AND NOW? It's a circle passing a syringe of fentanyl while everyone plays with their I-phone, meanwhile hoping maybe someone would just happen to be impressed with their tattoos that got made instead of being honest and paying people back money owed......
Haha nice life you must have 😂🤣
Take a long bath and chill dude
You forgot to tell us about Neil Cassidy.
@@wesweldon8350 grateful dead fans take a bath? What do you think patchouli oil is for?
Deep
Phish sucks? Seriously? And so Billy Strings is better playing GD cover tunes? Billy is OVERATED as hell. I wouldn't even say he sucks like you say about Phish, but MAN! There are SO MANY Grateful Dead cover bands for YEARS that are so much better than Billy Strings and the non-stop jamming up our asses from the internet. How do you block Billy Strings videos? I'm tired of being bombarded. It's like a phone salesman that has your number and won't stop calling you to sell you something you absolutely do not want. Go away, Billy Strings! There's nothing new here, and you're not doing Jerry or Doc ANY tribute at all. (Who would YOU rather see live? Billy, or Doc Watson or Jerrry Garcia?). As if I'm even going to waste my time listening to it. Yet every time I go to youtube, there it is again!
Must be your time of the month
wow.
Your entitled to your opinion. My opinion is I’m glad there is one less person competing for tickets to see Billy😂
