    He seems to be as nice as he was the first time I met him. At a bluegrass festival in Nova Scotia.

      That's a great idea, the only issue I can see is, then his wife would know about all his guitars, & we don't want him living at the Shoppe. 😂
      But really that's a great idea, I'll try to make it happen soon.

      @@grasser82 lol. He’s incredibly talented and has got a gift. I’d kill for that-but the Strings crowd with their pods and masks has been a bit much. Reminds me of the Yonder Mountain crowd when I was a kid before I grew up. I’ll leave at that 😷🥴😵‍💫.

      Billy’s background isn’t strictly BG - so I think he’s just playing what he wants rather than caving.
      I personally prefer to hear him play BG, but I still go see his shows just to get a few of those great old tunes. He’s a great ambassador and has brought many new folks to the BG genre. If 1 out of 1000 turns out to be a picker - even better.
