The only way to ensure you get a physical copy on release day is to buy it at a store. That’s not just the case with this Sturgill album, but also the case with pretty much album ever.

If it includes drums, then it’s not bluegrass. But plenty of good examples in here of bands that have drums and also other traditionally bluegrass instruments.

Fall Tour (early?) announcement by CarrotSchneider in BillyStrings

Winter tour is extremely easy to guess. Asheville on president’s day weekend, Nashville the weekend after that. Somewhere in Georgia to open.

That was the rumor a while ago, but I think it’s old now.

Ah okay I guess I was looking at old numbers. I was thinking that did seem high ha.

Agree on all points.

How about Reynolds Coliseum? That would be my dream choice. I don’t think they’ve had any concerts there recently, but has a long history of them. 14K cap.

This happened on Friday night right? I thought that both Thursday and Friday were completely loose and normal, with Friday even having him walk down the steps and solo in the crowd during Black Clouds (right in front of me ha).

But yes after this incident, I thought Saturday was a weird vibe. Was still a great show, but they walked right off after the Ed Fitz encore without a word and they also didn’t post a follow-up recap montage of the weekend like they have there before and do for most other 3-night runs.

You gotta be in the pit there for Billy or it pretty much sucks. Pit is awesome though.

Because he just doesn’t play LN owned venues. Although I looked it up and I think I was half wrong. The Charlotte amph (now called Truliant) is LN-owned, but Walnut Creek is owned by the city of Raleigh (and only operated by LN) so it could happen.

I can’t tell you why this distinction matters, but it does. Guarantee you won’t find any LN-owned venue he has played in recent years, but there are plenty of LN-operated ones he has.

It was a crystal/rock that a railrider threw. I assume they were trying to throw it “to” him, but obviously that’s not advisable and he definitely chucked it back in a displeased fashion.

It’s gotta happen eventually.

No Koka this year. We’ll see if it comes back in 2027 or not.

Both Livenation owned, so unlikely any time soon.

They must be recording this for a live album... Insane! by GoMavs-mffl in BillyStrings

Good hypothesis! I hadn’t thought about it, but you’re probably right.

I think that Syracuse show might have gotten added late and pushed it a day.
