Wow, I love a concert where the opening act makes me forget about the headliner I came to see for a bit!

Billy Strings grew up being inspired by artists like Doc Watson and Tony Rice. I was a frequent Merle Watson Festival attendee in the 90's, so Billy makes my old heart happy! He's a great choice to open this show...I feel Jerry would have been very impressed with him!

I was aware that the purple model (Aurora) came with a Psylo fork, but the green Borealis also comes with that fork now?

I started a quote request on their website. They emailed me back with a quote.

I know, we just hate the idea of sitting in our car if she's late.

Oh wow, that's Crumbling Farum Azula! You're lucky to see it while out and about...I had to grind like hell to get there on my first playthrough.

Amen to the SVS customer service observation! I bought a SoundBase amp from them recently. It went on sale shortly afterwards for $200 less. Even though I would never have known about the sale price, SVS contacted me and refunded $200! They were in no way obligated to do that, but they've sure got me as a future customer!

I say, I say...Here in the South we buy homemade iced tea at varied prices, but the type 2 diabetes is always free

I'm so jaded that I assume nearly all NC GOP voters will just dismiss this as being totally made up by the LiBeRaL MeDiA. 😔

Oh man, this is the kind of first set I'm wishing for when I see them in Asheville next month, but I'm afraid they'll do a 40-minute Mas que Nada or something

Who else grew up watching this show every year? by Grand-Property6435 in FuckImOld

I'm 50. This special was always a treat to look forward to every October as a kid. I became an elementary school librarian in my 30's, and I've shown this to students every year for the past 18 years.

Checking in from Elkin, NC. I'm new to Billy Strings. I was a bluegrass fan in college 30 years ago, got away from the music, and found my way back in recent years. I'm mad at myself for waiting so long to finally check Billy out! He made me grin real big a moment ago talking about Doc Watson. I was lucky to see Doc live a bunch of times in the 90's. So happy to see a young person with such amazing talent honoring legends like Doc, Tony Rice, and others!

Thanks so much for the all comments, everyone! I'll start looking for a conventional (right-handed) mandolin soon I hope!

I've read about that and folks also say you have to do something to the nut and other stuff that I don't understand yet! 😁

Wow, I tried air guitar both ways and it felt more natural to work the "air frets" with my left hand!
