Dear Mr Strings, I am cast adrift over here in England, unable to take even the smallest step out of my house due to the plight in which we find ourselves. You have brightened every moment of my day with you and your excellent trio so may I just say how I feel I can make it through the darkness thanks to you. An 80 year old fan I'm doing my best to spread the word over here, you are a national treasure. Keep the flag flying and thank you.
Billy STRINGS IS THE BEST THING HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN MUSIC... BLUEGRASS... TO ROCK AND ROLL , METAL, BLUES...YOU NAME IT HE PLAYS IT... THE BEST THING IN MUSIC... BEING A MUSICIAN MYSELF... HE'S THE BEST... BRINGING MUSIC BACK...LIKE IT SHOULD BE.... FANTASTIC..
He’s the hottest act today. He and Tedesci Trucks are the best live acts playing today. I miss dead and co but those two got the live music scene on lock down
Not only Billy but I found Marcus King too. I'll officially relate covid to finding these two for certain. I haven't been this excited about musicians probably since I found Keb Mo and Delbert McClinton. Billy's facebook live stuff is especially entertaining but of course everything is superb.
I sure did. You are damn right!! What a find. . . I can't even go to sleep. It's 5: AM... I'm on a Billy Strings Bender for 13 hours now... This music brings fond memories of my Oklahoma roots!!! So much Love ☮️ Cheryl 💫💕💟💕💟💕💟💕💟💕💟💕💫
@@cherylwilliams904 Ontario Canada here lol but my family's from the east coast of Canada and there's more of a chicken-pickin kind of feel there. My uncles played all those tunes while I was growing up or tried to lol and watching Billy brings me back like nobody has ever done before so i totally get you. His Nashville Inn show with Bryan Sutton is simply mindblowing. Those Tom Dooley harmonies will have you coming back alone lol
Brilliant! I swear, TH-cam comments are the best! Seriously, you find the best insightful humor if you peer into the Comments, anywhere you go on the Tube.
Massive fan of Billy Strings down here in New Zealand man you are a talent, mature well above your age. I've seen everything of yours on TH-cam, on my bucket list to see you live!.
Thank God for bluegrass festivals! All of these guys cut their teeth hanging around campers and tents with the folks who were already hooked. They keep my faith restored in the fact that bluegass music will never die! Thank you Billy and all the rest of the guys in the band! God loves pickers!
@@cryptomongoose8799 I used to know a guy named Kurt Bugrad from Clay county. I saw him dive 140 feed into the surf to rescue the captain's wife red setter , but that was the least of his talents,I had been on a drunk for 4 days and the captain never knew about it because of this hero,,

So it's probably been about 3 months since I first found Billy Strings & his crew on TH-cam...After purchasing Home, Turmoil&Tinfoil, Fiddle Tune X, and Rock of Ages....... and I've pretty much sat through virtually all of his live performances on TH-cam........but this one.....seriously....goes all the way to the top....best set 2 ever!!! Enjoy all and stay safe....!!!........Edit.....but someone turn the lights on....I like to see these boys play....x
James have you heard of NUGS music streaming service? There are dozens of his live shows there to listen to. Hope you get to see him soon. Killer live shows.
@@oldsoundz Many thanks for the heads up....I have also listened to them all on there as well. I'm looking forward to the new live ones coming out soon. Thanks again.

He nightly gets better at his craft! The setlist is stellar..flows perfectly.Atlantic City imo was amazing. Love what these guys are doing. Hope tour starts back up sooner than later

@g baker I hope you make it at least another 10. What a ride it will be with Billy.I am younger at 65 but I am looking forward to any and all of the gifts he will share with us
Billy needs his own Signature Strings Man, It`s perfect: "folks, I got myself new Billie Strings for my guitar!" Feels right! Also what I totally think he could use to do magic on a new level is one of them genious SamJams they got now or a kickbox. When I saw the SamJam for the first time my mind was blown by the possibilities. I`ll fetch one and some other stuff.
I'm from jersey my buddies HUGE BOSS FANS , ALSOdiff buddies went to hs w- bon j, sambora etc,,.. bluegrass fanatic I am, first show Winterhawk,...grey fox now, 87,.... mando , gtr here w- harp... nj rules, az since 95 see all the Western shows now, but saw slot in WV NYS Wv , MD OH KY , big fan best bg band out now sorry Earl's McCoury, Becky buller
.....he should have his own festival... last couple of years he played at Gray Fox bluegrass festival....too many people he played with....to mention here... although Moll Tuttle and Billy is worth a look...
OMG, just got to Wild Horses and the band nails it. I'm an old Old and in the Way fan so this style is my favorite for this song. BTW, the song right before Wild Horses was mind-blowing.
Listing to Billy strings is like listening to blue grass fuck folk fuck the dead fuck southern rock fuck rock with a little thrash . Which equals wtf I can't stop listening.

OMG, just got to Wild Horses and the band nails it. I'm an old Old and in the Way fan so this style is my favorite for this song. BTW, the song right before Wild Horses was mind-blowing.
Yes Garcia and Peter Rowan✌️
Holishit do you ever Rock !!!

4fab !
Him n Bruce need to meet up real soon
This would be Great, if you could the performers on stage.
goes great with bourbon
Listing to Billy strings is like listening to blue grass fuck folk fuck the dead fuck southern rock fuck rock with a little thrash . Which equals wtf I can't stop listening.
2:55 - Bon Jovi doesnt get enough credit with this riff. It even lays out the mighty Billy Strings.
Flat assed great shit!!
Even though you killed it on that anchovie song... New Jersey and jbj still blow....
i just scored some killer tees and stuff on sale in Billys shop. yall should check it out... links in the description
Track list? ?? Pli
So the banjo player is clearly the best picker
Really like Billy and the band, to bad the lighting was so dark he couldn't see what he was playing on Dead or Alive, I've been in the position.
Bring on Bob Weir
I've been a fan of bluegrass , but
Billy and the band outdue all of them..

i prefer the old billy when he used a mic. he's got that plug in guitar sound
Doc's plug-in didn't sound too good either. And he played sitting down.
Kinda feel bad for Richie Sambora after that opening solo.
Dead or alive, tune. Anyway so what’s going on with the virus there?
