@@YeahImAnthonyI’ve been a TooL fan since the 90s, and growing up in the hills of Kentucky I’ve was raised on bluegrass music too, this kid is amazing. To be able to play all genres of music. Watch his other vids!! I’m definitely a fan of his now. Glad I got to see him Rock out!! Love finding new kickass artist!!
I’ve been going to see Tool since the 90’s and I’ve been going to see Billy for almost 4 years now. This blows my mind. I always knew he was in to metal but man this eclipses my mind.
tool and billy strings are two of my favourites and now you tell me today that i can watch BS rip shit up with tool ??!!!! what a dream!!!! this is fucking amazing
Was in first two rows stage right. Had a couple next to me and the girl was extremely excited about Billy Strings. It was great. You guys were cool, let's see Tool again haha.
I was there and saw that go down. How does a bluegrass player rip a solo like that?!! Billy is a bad ass! Watch out - Maynard is gonna track down for posting this….
Billy’s playing with tool. Cody Jinks was playing Dimebag’s guitar a few weeks back in tribute and they both have Alice In Chains covers. Current real country (not pop bs) artists are heavily influenced by old school metal
Is there any genre he can't play ?? Sounds like he's been playing this style music for yrs.. I've heard him play 3 completely different styles of music and he killed it all 3 times
Oh kid. You had your turn now people want to hear Adams talkbox solo give me a break dude pulling a Clapton Clapton never let anybody play without him playing on top of him either
I prefer the original version. the high flying guitar solos are not really a staple of tool music being more progressive and melody driven. Cool to see when bands do this but it ruined the "mood" of the song
It's nice to see people coming together to melt faces.
Was there right in the front row… right in front of Billy and Adam!!! Absolutely amazing!
Did they mention how this happened? Like who decided to do this...Tool or Billy? How did they introduce him?
I’m fucking jelly bro. Congrats that must’ve been awesome
I'm glad to hear from someone that was there and appreciated it! Hell yeah man.
This was so mother fucking outstanding fucking amazing fuckity fucking just cool.. billy Strings folks...enjoy
Metal and bluegrass are kissing cousins
Did like 3 double takes on this comment
Bluegrass is just acoustic metal 😂
Or punk rock haha
Once removed
My mind is BLOWN!! What a lucky crowd to have witnessed this!! Two Michigan boys rocking the world!
Adam is a Chicago suburbs boy!
Yeah, pretty sure he went to high school with Tom Morrello too.
He is talking about Maynard and Billy… though I believe Maynard was actually born in Ohio
@@jhickssmdYou are correct on all counts, good sir. Maynard moved from Ohio when he was young and lived with his Dad on the West side of the State.
Never knew a bluegrass player could head bang like that!! Love it!!!😂..
Watch him play Black Sabbath
One of his shirts is " Billy strings " but in the early 2000s death metal font. Definitely a metal head

Billy was in a metalcore band 15ish years ago
He comes from a metalcore/metal backfground
Instant Billy Strings fan.
Watch him play Away from the Mire live - the dude fucking shreds so effortlessly
🤯 sweet Jesus God is Real. And He Is so Good. Setting me right by blowing me away! Thanks for coming together!
Billy Shreds!
That should be a side project for sure!!!!

really cool that Adam gives up what is arguably his high point of a show for a guest to come play with them.. did it 4 or 5 times this tour
This is my life coming around full circle
A perfect circle , indeed !
I’m convinced we live in a simulation!
Respect to Billy Strings the phenomenonal guitar man! Love Tool ! ❤
My face is melted!Wow!
Damn this is so good!
THis is so fucking good. Holy shit hahaha
tool and billy strings are two of my favourites and now you tell me today that i can watch BS rip shit up with tool ??!!!! what a dream!!!! this is fucking amazing
My face melted off. I don't even care ❤
Literally my dream come true
We would be good friends 😊
Same however my other dream is coming true in December. Mike Portnoy is playing a set with Umphrey’s in Chicago I couldn’t ask for anything better
I would do almost anything to see this live. Probably the 2 best acts going today
I have been a Tool fan since 2000 and watched Billy since he was little and wow they sound so damn good together
Oh man! This just kicks you in the teeth! 😁 Excellent
Billy and Tool ? Yes , please 🙏 ❤🎉
Billy Mutha Fuckin Strings!!!
This was such a great show, I’ll be eternally grateful I was at this show
Shine on forever malevolent sun
He used to play in metal bands and is a huge metal gear outside of playing bluegrass music
your autocorrect tells me you're a video game nerd
@@fuckcensorship69 hah😹
Yeah i especially loved when Solid Strings opened up for Snake
Oh my god.
I saw Billy in Baltimore in December then I saw Tool same place in January, two of the best shows ive ever been to.
Tooly Strings
Whoa. 💥🤯😜
WTF so cool
I was there! 8th row right in front of me! Pretty solid
Wow!!!!❤
Awesome
Down to earth that’s why I love you metal that’s why I love that get it
wow first guitar solo in tool history!..lol
You guys were so lucky !!!!
Like… you can tell he knows the song inside and out by how he places those initial lead phrases. Then he just takes off.
This dude just living my dreams at this point… It should have been me! 😢😂😂
We saw Alex Lifeson play Jambi in Toronto.
What a combo
Was in first two rows stage right. Had a couple next to me and the girl was extremely excited about Billy Strings. It was great.
You guys were cool, let's see Tool again haha.
What in the effing ef. Get it!
He got up with them last night in Nashville. It was so great.

Crazy amount of talent on that stage.
Toolbird
Free'ool
Billy and Adam solo fuckkkk
🤘😎
Holy shit
I mean, Jesus H. Christ. Billy Strings is already a legend.
Billy was originally in a metal band. He can shred both genres
Holy f*ck.
for a moment it sounded like frampton's solo from "i dont need no doctor" on at the fillmore
Thanks for that. Got more? The sound is clean
Billy’s playing with tool. Cody Jinks was playing Dimebag’s guitar a few weeks back in tribute and they both have Alice In Chains covers. Current real country (not pop bs) artists are heavily influenced by old school metal
😮
Jesus
BMFS
Cut the video immediately before one of the coolest bass riffs in tools entire catalog.
dang.
Got kicked out for taking the video lol
Wow, what a sick collab
Billy can't be human
Les claypool and billy strings are good friends
Is this LDS approved? Def LSD
Takes a lot of 3% beer to slay like this in Utah 😉
Is there any genre he can't play ?? Sounds like he's been playing this style music for yrs.. I've heard him play 3 completely different styles of music and he killed it all 3 times
I remember wondering who was the extra guitarist on stage shredding the guitar lol
BMFS!
Any coincidence that the song they decided to play is called.....JAMbi?
that was a reach, dude... but I'm not mad about it.
Probably my favorite shit from boomer
All flawless bud
Why doesn’t anyone still know that Billy strings was in a heavy metal band before doing bluegrass!
can't believe he would play with these clowns
They should do this with Eric Gales too…
So much awesome. Is this even legal? 😂
No it’s not
totally illegal!
@@michaelcothren5015
keep it on the down-low, cuz
😂😂😂😂😂😅
Joseph Smith disapproves of this post.👹
I totally didnt have Billy Strings playing with tool on my bingo card
Oh kid. You had your turn now people want to hear Adams talkbox solo give me a break dude pulling a Clapton Clapton never let anybody play without him playing on top of him either
Oh gosh… he’s better at playing tool than tool. 🤯😂❤
TOOL fans be like:
"What's a guitar solo?"
Das it’s super anti hero do si do re me alligator Heterochromia hallelujah halitosis jam be 🫵🏽
Amazing singer - average guitar player - not feeling it on this track… sorry guys
Lame. Nobody asked for this.
Actually Tool did, when they asked Billy to play with them...He didn't just wander on stage you know
It sure sounds like he did @@superstimulatedminotaur3681
