    well, from an 80 year old who used to promote a bluegrass festival, you are just the greatest thing ever. Solid musicians, great voice and harmony. I have just discovered you lately and you are my chair exercise music for the last solid week. I just pray covid is over soon and I can have the pleasure of seeing you live. I hired such people as Jim and Jesse, Del McCoury, Raymond Fairchild, The Lewis Family and the Osbourne brothers. You would have been on the top of my list.

      Yes, I guess you could say that they're improving. Right now, most all of us think they're the best bluegrass band in the world (and that includes the Dusters, Yonder, Greehsky, Salmon).

      @@thaddeusk4230 best bluegrass band in the world? That’s a bold statement. Especially in a genre like Bluegrass where there are absolute monsters everywhere, they just don’t lay it all out every time they get a ride. In a popularity contest, Billy’s band probably wins. As far as the best Bluegrass band in terms of how well they have mastered their instruments, The Punch Brothers will stand up to anyone, and that includes any of the old cats. I mean, with a line-up like Thile, Eldridge, Pikelny, Witcher, and Kowart, you’d have a hard time finding a better complete Bluegrass lineup today or yesterday. The only band line-up you might find that would stack up with The Punch Brothers would be the Bluegrass All Star band that consisted of Rice, Douglas, Bush, O’Connor, and Crowe. They weren’t ever really a “band” though, just a gathering of aliens that got together when they wanted to take a break from cutting records for everyone else. These guys are entertaining as hell to watch, but they’re definitely still coming into their own. The other names I mentioned are world-class, generational kind of talents.

      I like both, but do see your point for sure. I wouldn't mind if Billy took up the mantle of the Dead someday for sure. For me these guys in their current version are a lot like New Riders of the Purple Sage. Would be so cool if they opened for Dead and Co sometime, or if Billy played an acoustic set with them.

    I never got into bluegrass but here and it served up this way this is absolutely amazing this guy's obviously got some good old heavy metal influences and he kills it they all kill it this is one tight band that I woulld pay to go see. I used to think I was a guitar player but after hearing Billy I'm a fraud.
