I am 68, been a bluegrass fan most all of my life, Never thought there would ever be anyone else like Doc Watson, but then I herd Billy. First time I herd him he was very young, This Young man will be a force for many years, not only because he can really pick, but because he is a good person.
Tony Rice too! This guy is fantastic
If Mark Twain played instead of wrote, he'd still not be as gifted as Billy Strings.💚😇
He's also a great singer with a rich voice.
Y’all are correct. I’m 60 and a few years back when I first heard Billy, my first thought was Tony Rice can rest at night now..
Doc played much cleaner... Every note clear.
This guy is a legend already.
Already?
He’s been picking guitar out of the womb
Also, He could’ve been famous like 10 years ago but he just doesn’t want to be. The industry sucks. But he’s been popular on UA-cam for a long time and did the Opry a few years ago
@@K.D17 4-5 years ago you could see him in rooms with maybe 100 people. He's blown up faster than any artist I've ever witnessed in any genre. And, thats even with over a year with basically no in person live performances. Pretty amazing.
BMFS!!!
@@toddish10 4+ years ago, i saw them at a free local festival in chicagoland... that was my first in-person exposure and i was blown away.... the days of a BMFS free show are long gone..........
I am 74 years old and just happened to come across this young man.He is simply my number one music man.I,ve listened to blue grass most of my life and this young man takes the cake.I think he will be around for along time.Kudos Billy Strings.❤️
I'm 65 and never really have done bluegrass even though I am a music dude. Billy has totally flipped me and made me appreciate the art. I love it.
Same here!
Growing up in North Carolina and having family up in Wilkes Doc Watson was a staple in our house. What Billy has done to honor him is beyond belief and simply awesome. We are seeing another legend right before our eyes and ears.
Fellow Carolina guy here! Dad used to play Doc when I was just a kid. Had an opportunity to see Doc, but missed the show. Once I found Billy I instantly knew he was Doc reincarnated. I have seen Billy 3 times now and this kid amazes me each time. He has shown so much respect to Blue Brass and honors The Doc. What a gift we have to enjoy this music!
Family is in SC now and grew up w the dead and other jambands but billy had become a major staple for us. So i respect doc and all for inspiring billy and terry cause if it werent for them they wouldnt be kickin ass bringin us great music! Also WSMFP BMFS
We saw Billy in small clubs years ago, we haven't been quite the same ever since. True and honest talent will prevail.
I am 72 and love music especially from the 60s. And then I heard Billy. Wow!! So now he is all I want to listen to. He is exceptionally talented. Also a genius. Thank God I have lived long enough to hear his music.
First there was Jerry
Then there was Billy
God loves us people!❤️
An old soul, like he was born a 55 year old virtuoso. I know as a life long guitarist his talent comes from thousands of hours of hard work. But I feel like I could be immortal and never come close to his abilities
Me too
Going to see him again in Denver in a couple weeks
This man's repertoire is like an encyclopedia of art A true treasure beyond my words
Great comment I didn’t know his music until a few months ago and this kid is the nominal phenomenal. He plays anything with anybody seems so genuine I would do a lot to go see a live show. Just listen to his version of ramble on and everyone does everyone was in their Lord of the rings outfits and then I saw it was Halloween. I’ve never been to Asheville but I’d like to.😊
Awesome thanks ❤
Jerry is up in heaven looking down jealous he didn't get to play with Billy the kid.
Incredibly talented, unpretentious and genuine. Billy plays with as much joy as we receive it. Love you man.
Woah, Billy; what a player... A blessing to the world, and I plan to be a fan for a long time.
music industry gives him and his traveling band of ganja smokin troupe 5 Stars Respecting the scene, the music past present & future and all those roadies, sound guys that make it work and yes, the fans They got it goin on and lets hope thatey have learned lessons from those that have burnt out before their time. Days Between... Peace and ty strings for all that you do to help this planet be a bit of a better place in these challenging times
So good. Just him, no flashing lights, his hair blowing in the wind, and some great music!
Amazingly talented. Spending his youth wisely. He's a phenom for sure. Good on BillyStrings. Blow it up! You're awesome!
Second comment on this thread, but this is spiritual music. Rarely ever listen to anything that makes me this happy. So special.
Never miss a billy show
I caught Friday's show and HAD to go Saturday! I've seen him 5 times now, and I walk away from each concert more amazed than I was at the last show. This specific show was flat out amazing. Serious thanks for capturing this even though I gripe about folks with cameras at shows. I'm an old deadhead, and being able to find artists this young and this talented has been wonderful. With any luck, he'll be playing past the point when I can no longer hear him.
100 percent without a doubt best concert I have ever been too. Thank you Billy for showing Indy so much love.
I am 70 years old. I feel blessed it's billions carrying on traditional music, with respect with the ones that pics with, I love it with his dad singing and. Playing guitar is the tops. I just got through watching Earl Scruggs and Doç Wason and Ricky Skaggs
So glad to see Billy bring this great music to the next generation, Are true musicians never get the recognition they deserve, you won't here them on mainstream radio or see them on TV. He pays tribute to Doc Watson, Tony Rice and many other greats that one in ten Americans know who they are
Our, hear
Is it humanly possible to be better than Billy Strings? I can’t imagine so.
Not lately , but . . . Jerry , Doc , Rice , Jimi ,Blackmore . not so much better but elite to be included in the same breath .
@@peterbetts858 Add SRV to that list.... Jerry i dunno about. Grate times for sure, but to include him with the best of all time?
That is exactly what is so fucking awesome about the future.
@@CorneiliusLibowitz Saying Jerry isn't one of the best of all time is so ignorant. Jerry maybe had the most soul of any of those listed anyways.
@@CorneiliusLibowitz from Jerry’s hands to the Angels ears. All colleagues mentioned stand the tests of time …
Thank you for sharing this golden moment of BMFS doing what he does best! The love he has for his fans is authentic and true, that’s a fact!
Best picker and hell of an entertainer !!👍
Doc Watson and Merl are looking down from heaven and smiling Billy Strings! Keep it up!
Billy and the boys Rock.
Saw him in Indy last summer but missed this one for Hippy Hill down at Bill Monroe Park. Of course he rips a legendary solo set. Love how he always brings Doc and Stanley Bros on tour. Can’t wait for him to tour with his dad Terry someday, the Traverse City show here on youtube with his dad is the best thing ever.

Thanks Doug for recording this I was in the lawn and it’s great to see the show again close up
He's right there with Jerry Reed and Glenn Campbell on acoustic.
One of the best I’ve ever heard. 🎸💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Doug, it breaks my heart that I missed this Indy show. Damn kids. Lol. THANK YOU for capturing this for all of us that couldn’t be there!!! 🫠
Beautiful Billy ! You just made me want to get to your show even more . I think u just made Jerry smile . Pick On ,brother .
Amazing show to have seen in person! Billy always shows up to perform!!
Solo Billy is the best!! I do love the band as well.
reinvigorated my soul with this show
Thank you. Best show I’ve seen.
This is just what I needed. Thank you Billy.
Nice job recording. Doug! Gotta love Billy! ❤
Dude was an Angel in first life
I love me some Billy Strings, amazing young man🪕🎶🪕
Love you Billy! Keep rocking our brains out our ears!🧠🤯
Really special night!!
I've seen him twice this year. Augusta GA and St. Augustine. Going to see him in September again at the Outlaw music festival. I've been blown away since his first UA-cam video a few years ago. Amazing talent and fantastic in concert. His whole band is amazing. It's like a bluegrass, widespread panic, grateful dead, phish concert all in one. I hope he doesn't burn himself out but I'll be looking forward to seeing him for years to come.
Saw him at Peach music festival. I knew he was good, just didn't know how good 👍
Many thanks Doug!
Yeah Doug, thanks so much for this
More of this please! Billy continues to impress me everyday, were so blessed!
Show was absolutely sick!! I couldn't have been too far behind you Doug! Can't wait to see him again. Got Turnpike Troubarours & Willie next weekend. Thanks for uploading man!
Listened to this on the stream, one hell of a show. Thank you for capturing!!
Billy Strings is simply Pure USA Beauty🥰 Appreciate the Utube post🙏😇
That Bound To Ride would have damn near been worth the price of admission
This was unbelievable to experience. Thanks for the capture and share! Peace and love in your house bruddah.
Was here for this. Amazing!!!
Billy....incredible as always!
This is awesome! Thanks so much for posting. Billy is amazing!!
Incredible! Love me some Billy!
I still come back to this to relive that night. Best damn show ive seen in 25 years.
That show was sick!
I’ve already watched this 6 times. THIS is what I was hoping for in Lousiville. I think it was just too damn hot outside, instruments were all wonky from the heat and humidity. Man, kicking myself for not buying Indy tix now. This show would have been AMAZING to see live. Good thing we got fans like you out there covering for us!! 🙏🏼🤛🏼✌🏽
Me too, it was still a great show in Louisville, but I thought the energy from the band was a tad low/off...but it was so hot and muggy. Also thought the acoustics in the Ampitheater and the sound mix were off...I wanted to hear the guitar featured more prominently and it got buried in the 4 other instruments sometimes. Man I would of loved to have seen this beautiful solo acoustic set done in Louisville! I was at the Sat and Sun shows in Louisville...which night(s) were you there?
Thanks doug! Amazing energy! I feel it!
Such talent and entertainer, just mesmerizing to watch and listen to.
Thanks for sharing! ❤️
I just love the cukoo so much! Makes me feel so happy!
This kid can play and don't ever won't to quit
Didn't get there till second set so thanks for this 🙏
Great filming and audio, Doug! Thank you.
Brown’s Ferry Blues…the pickin’!!!
Unbelievable!
Brilliant, simply Brilliant
You would never that much music coming from one instrument..dam you in a greatest way
I had to have been right behind the pov , such a great concert and night. GO BMFS!
Ah man I’m from Indy, would love to have been there. Still hoping he goes back to Austin soon.
Billy is Doc Watson, Chet Atkins, Roy Clark, Jerry reid,and alot of others,rolled into one.He was placed here on earth,by God,to continue on the bluegrass legacy.
I would put Tony Rice first.
Perfect sentiment my dear Deadhead friend! I never did follow her around like a true deadhead but I’m telling you even at our age I might follow this kid around lol
Pickin' billy boy....... How much i enjoyed watching this... Extraordinaire.... He doesnt even need a band... Thnx for posting this vdo 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! yet again the best..!!
😁
This is great! Billy strings!
Can’t wait for New Orleans , thanx Doug
I agree Billy is really a good person and respectful.
Love the Arkansas reference!
Woo pig soo eeeee
Not that you need it, but watched his set on acid and holy fuckin shit!!
Imo this is when he really shines I could listen to his solo stuff all day I catch a lot of hate for not caring for his full band stuff but oh well
HECK YES!! Thanks Doug!
Yikes! He is scary good. And so clean at that speed.
This guy is my sweetness for life an he rocks my soul plus so much more I enjoy all he does just beautiful love always your Sunshine 🔆
awesome!
I have no idea how old he is still looks like a total baby. Saw a video with him playing with his dad so he must’ve grown up in the bluegrass and has a talent that could knock your socks off. Seems so genuine I think he likes to pick that guitar
I was there on Friday, really mad at myself for not just going broke and buying Saturday tickets too
Bro same
I love the Black Mtn Rag. The version that opens the Pickin' For Merle episodes that were on PBS (NC anyway) is killer. Billy's is good too.
The Pickin' For Merle episodes were filmed at the 1992 Merlefest as I recall.
Oh, and Randall Collins. Norman Blake at his best.
Plus the Cuckoo. It seems like I've heard Peter Rowan do this song many times. Great each time.
He sure doesn’t look like the voice that comes out of him...which is great.
He also plays to perfection, hardly ever messing up.
That being said, the dude fucking gifted beyond most for sure.
Good video!
So very deadly 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
a gift to all of us.......................
Beautiful music 🎶 thanks for posting 🔥BMFS🔥
That bound to ride 👌
Goosebumps
Keeping Doc alive 👍
Good times!
wow!!!!
Thank you. First timer show. In lawn by the trees so no real view but Great time. Good things.
The stage hand that came out near the end of the set and gave him the banjo and carried off his guitar had to use an oven mitt to handle the guitar after Billy played it.
Thank you it's a bad day but you made it ok
