    The power he plays with is just incredible. Volume wise he can legitimately make an acoustic guitar hang with an electric guitar thru a 30 watt amp. It's insane how clean and loud he plays.

It just shows how if you don't go wrong and keep your nose to the old grindstone,you just may be that someone,you always were,in your spirit form.Yep.I sure was wrong!Thank you Billy.You make me smile with new hope for this old street/folk singer. “With all the LOVE cooked in”(Slow Food by Greg Brown)

    This is one of the most talented young men I've ever heard. He absolutely owns that guitar and couldn't be any quicker of a picker. The first time I saw him, I thought to myself now if this guy can keep his liquor and drug use under control he's really going places. I'm wondering if he was born with a guitar in hand. If not then he had music in him since birth. He's definitely a winner.

      Yes Ive researched this and have followed him as long as I can remember .Him and his father played together all the time when he was a youngster. I learned a lot from my Dad about Ham radio, but I'll never be the guy he was. He built his own radio from a kit in 63. Then he had free rain of Mather Air Force Bases surplus radio parts. He and I built him a Ham shack in the garage and he was able to talk to anyone around the world. But they call these smartphones and there no smarter than the person behind it.
