Every once in awhile one of these guys come along, huh? I have a hard time comparing this phenomenon to anything in my lifetime, and I am 67. Country and bluegrass fan, Doc Watson, Grateful Dead, and lotsa rock. I'm so glad that Billy is rooted first and foremost in Doc, who will always be Doc, going way downtown. Yeah, this is good shit, kids! Glad that Billy continues to develop his own vocal style... (He can mime anybody).
Idk why, but this is not the crowds I would've expected to find their way to a Billy strings show. How did Billy manage to get such a strong hippie like following in such a short time?
His following is broad. I am 49, love all kinds of music from rap to metal. Billy is tip top. He can do it all. Turmoil and tinfoil could be a metal songs. It all starts with six strings and then it explodes.
Jam band fans love improvisational music. Billy goes there. And they all pretty much enjoy or at least appreciate bluegrass. Anything Americana and hippies like it.
Unbelievable!! He is a master at such a young age!! Speechless 😶

I'll never understand by this boy don't settle down and get him a real job , something he is good at,,😆
We’ll reach the promised land before they tear it down.
This wasn't their best performance. They have done much better versions of 'Doing My Time."
To bad he doesn't seem to like bluegrass any more
It's the best Live show on the planet. Plenty of bluegrass, with everything else in there too. Stop bitching.
