Real men cry to So Many Roads
The sure fucking do. ❤
Ain’t that the truth.
RIP James Casey. Your light will continue to shine through the music.
Hi Bobby
First time I've seen this played live since Jerry's passing. Brought me to absolute tears sanding there at Red Rocks. An incredibly beautiful, soulful vocal. so well done. THANK YOU!!
What a wonderful thing that must have been. 🙏
I woulda done the same. I was alive and too young for jerry. I did see them as the other ones in 2001 and the dead in 2002 w bob dylan
And this is my favorite, billy does so much better than mayer and he aint even part of dead and slow lol
I can totally understand that…I wasn’t there at B.S and wish I was. Must’ve been so cool, Strings does have it. I’m going to NY Pier 17 in June so that should be cool. But yeah the last GD/JG SMR 95 brings me to tears 😭 every time. Billy Strings has it. My years were 81-95 w GD … these days I like going to PL&F more so than D&C … it’s that thing I can’t explain but if you were there you probably get it. I still go to D&C but it’s not the same. (Sorry but I just cannot look at JM..he bothers the shit out of me and D&C just seems too commercialized now and idk it doesn’t feel the same …but that’s just me)
😁😁😁😁😁
I like to think Jerry found his road. Billy playing a beautiful tribute gives me hope.
Um, yeah, I wasn’t ready for that. Wow. Really made me miss the big man.
I type this with happy tears in my eyes. This was awesome! Anyone else overcome with emotion ?
Yep
Me too!
Crying as I read your comments! So…yup “overcome” for sure! :)
Completely.
Yes
Billy Strings is the best living singer/songwriter/player/performer in the world right now
Billy can break my heart with songs like this. He is so sensitive and honest. LOVE YOU BILLY STRINGS😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
i will forever live in envy of all the folks who got to attend this show
Forever grateful
I was in a complete puddle after this! Stellar cover. Jerry is smiling.
True that
I also have WAP after watching this. Thanks, fellas
lol so grateful i dknt hat to explain things like this eva 💜💜💜
i don’t know if others actually experience
the full access to al that i know we vibe strong enough to make smiles and blushyness lol but this i like this best so far
@@CreatrixxxINK so far since what? Jerry? I’d have to disagree tommy alone with jrad has way more soul than this does this is still good but the best idk either way all love fam ❤️
Can we give the sax player a big hug? AWESOME 😍😍😍😍😍
Adds spice for sure..#jerryproud
He's excellent in the Trey Anastasio Band, sings backup, too.
Sooo good.
He was great as were all of them. Billy sang this so well.
James Casey!!!
For the 24 thumbs down….you obviously need to get over yourself….YES others are aloud to sing a Jerry song. This is one of the BEST covers of this song out there.
Idiots. Do they think that Jerry is in heaven thinking " How dare that anyone should play my last song" Contrare, Billy Strings was the future and the future is HERE! Awesome version and you can see in his face the respect he has. While I'm at it, ty John Mayer, very much.❤
Jerry and Hunter are smoking a doobie and watching this with a huge smile somewhere out there
RIP, James Casey. What a man, what a performance ❤
Robert Hunter got the lyrics that make me feel things and stuff.
Hunter lyrics have been sang in my head and felt in my heart since ‘92 more than any other slinger of words that have shed light in my life like he has. Listening for three decades now and I’m still amazed. Add Garcia and well you got yourself something rare and special, eternal even. Love knowing that today someone will find his lyrics and stories with Jerry painting to his words and become inspired and hungry for more of what they just heard.
Please Lawd Please Lawd, let us get a Billy² & The Kids full tour in 2022!
Hippie chicks rule
Over 50🔥🔥lol

They still do add that certain bounce we love.
Amen.
Yeah we do!
3:10 the exact moment a young security guard found the meaning of life.
Yes!! Haha so awesome
Is he hitting a weed vape there that someone gave him probably ?! Hahaha
At one GD Madison Sqr Garden show, where the taper section transitioned from metal stands to concrete section, an usher is assigned to check tix for access to the floor. The usher takes his glasses out, reads the ticket, and then puts glasses away. By close to start of the show, 3 people stream by for every one ticket checked.
By the end of show, the usher is completely turned around and dancing to the Dead. I elbow my buddy Dan, and we share a silent laugh.
@@mikemm60 Epic!!
Thought the same thing! ✌️
Good lord, what a performance. James Casey was all soul. RIP, I hope you're out there somewhere.
James and Billy hopped right into that band and basically took it over 😂❤
Billy Strings makes you feel this song not listen to it. The last 3 minutes an his run at the end is unreal!
I agree had goosebumps the last 3 minutes. So many roads was the highlight of both nights for me!
He sucks
Bowled me over like a sledgehammer. About time. This kids the real deal.
Rest in Peace James. This blessed tune just got lifted even higher.
Truly one of the great ones. He and Billy played two nights at Red Rocks, only knowing half the songs. They made that fact their inside joke and killed it all weekend. James was a special talent (RIP)
The end gave me chills. Billy is UNREAL!! ❤️⚡️
Bro exactly the same! Was amazing
If you arent in a puddle by the time Billy really starts hitting that shit around 7:15, we are not cut from the same cloth
And on Billy’s Grandpas jailhouse built guitar at that. Jerry is happy.
Rest in peace James Casey
"So Many Roads" is the Grateful Dead's most underrated song (and, of course, my opinion is the most important one).
The tradition is in very good, elegant hands.
Billy doesn't just sing this song.......
He *deserves* to sing this song. Someone coming from the counterculture, with more than three times the talent he would need to be accepted by the whole world. Those people are hard to find, and I can't name many...to placate the masses, I'll name Hendrix and Garcia and stop there
Most people don’t realize that he’s an even better singer/writer than player/performer. “Generational talent” doesn’t even start to cut it
Brent AND Jerry are both smiling down on this great young artist performing the song beautifully. Thanks Billy Strings, James Casey, Bill Kreutzmann! Magnificent!!
In my mind the legacy of the dead will live on through this prodigy! Amazing!!!!
Sweetest version since Papa's '95
THIS BAND NEEDS TO TOUR!
Yes they need to come to the central coast CA SLO county we’d I’d love to see you all 💞☮️🤙🏼🤗🥰🥳💃🎶
The world isn’t ready for THAT band to tour. We have only so many faces
probably the only person alive who can do this gorgeous composition the justice it deserves
hahahaha
Needs a few more run through's from the top, but HUGE potential.
River Kelly
Thinking the exact same ✌
haha, it's not that hard bro
Its an underrated masterpiece, and it has that added weight of Jerrys last performance. Any rendition is going to be judged against one of the most powerful moments in GD history.
I cant see any of the other post Jerry frontmen being able to pull this off.
Rest easy James Casey. Dang.
I was there that first night hearing this and it was TRULY AMAZING. I had Goosebumps and Joyful Tears on my cheeks listening to this. We all could feel Jerry Smiling Down on Us. So Many Roads and So many more to come, so sweet.
RIP James Casey. Love this rendition. In his honor I guess we should all schedule an exam for that area “Down where the sun don’t shine.”
Hasn't been sung like that since 7/9/95
😓
The music never stops!!!!
That one guy wiping his tears away at 3:55 during the sax solo is me lol. It’s involuntary, you like the sounds they make and water starts shooting out of your eyes 😂😂
I'm wiping em away right now just on the UA-cam. Real men cry during So Many Roads!
@@mtthffmn we got a so many roads during JRAD last weekend and holy shit was it tear inducing
Dude fuck yeah man! He just passed away😢 such a good sax player nfa
@@JAYREZ1ONATORRIP James Casey ❤️🤙
Heart of America ❤ ahhhwuuu blow that whistle
Rest in peace James💚
SO MANY ROADS, INDEED! REST IN PEACE, JAMES CASEY!!! THANK YOU! GONE WAAAAAY TOO SOON at the age of 40....1983 - August 28, 2023
Hey Relix! How about popping up a video of Positively 4th Street?!!!
The music lives on. Appreciate it while you live on your borrowed time.
Let's all go see em.
It’s almost like it never stopped 😃
Billy and the kids are way better than Dead and company especially with Billy Strings playing 👍❤️🙏.
Yes
Facts
It's different! To say it's way better is to say you have a favorite Dead song.
@@ONSLAWTT I actually don’t have a favorite Grateful Dead song . There are just to many that I like so much 👍
@@ONSLAWTT honestly I am just not a fan of John Mayer
Damn that was beautiful
Wasn’t trying to shed a couple tears to start my weekend but here I am. So heavy. 🤘
😢
Oh Billy. I lost my dad 2 days ago. It's OK. He was 99. that was NOT a typo. You surely channeled Jerry, but still owned the song and made it your own. Thank you for taking me down this road and easing my soul. This was just what I needed to take me away and fill and replace the deep sadness and pain in my heart with joy. You made this say old man smile today. Thank you!!!
Listened again for the countless time on my way to work today. Chills from head to toe. Amazing rendition. Billy is super special!
I cant stop watching these clips! Smiles and tears, this is where its at! Hoping they do a few shows a year. The road goes on forever!
Absolutely incredible. I’m 24 and just recently got into the dead after seeing D&C this past September. I’m absolutely obsessed at this point, and so many roads has become one of my favorites. I really like John Mayer in D&C, but I can’t imagine he could rock this song as good as Billy Strings does right here. Jerry will and never could be replaced, but Strings and Mayer are doing a great job carrying on the tradition. I’d love to see Strings on stage with D&C sometime
John I'd great with D&C and I am happy to have been able to see them but Billy plays this so well and puts a whole new spin on so many grateful dead songs. Makes me so happy
I still predict that Billy will join the group part-time when Bobby hangs up his rhythm guitar 💯
Keep exploring, started in 3rd grade thanks to old sisters around 1986!!!
2nd best So many roads I have ever heard
What’s the first?!
@@sarahthrasher7895 10.1.94 q=']
@@coseyebe330 Nah man. 7/9/95. 10/1/94 is good too though
ua-cam.com/video/6sFyRQPraJ8/v-deo.html
JRAD has a couple of great versions too.
I think this song means so much to Dead fans because of the 7/9/95 version. I just get immersed into the lyrics and music of it and appreciate all iterations.
This hits different today with passing of James today. FuckCancer.
Billy on the jerry ballads is outstanding. Gives me hope for the future
what respect from such a young dude
Closest geeetar Sounds like Jerry allllmost.
This must have been so emotional for Billy K
THIS IS THE SOUL THE DEAD NEEDS THESE DAYS
Magical. Moving. Touched my soul.
The sax fits so well with this tune.
I just read about James Casey, so sad......
BIG chills watching this. The solos are so reminiscent of Jerry.
The last 2 minutes are nothing short of cosmic.
Every cover they do is pure gold
Wonderful representation. I hate all this comparison between Jerry and bashing of Dead&Co. Each in there own right keeps the music alive for all of us.. soo many roads..
Right on,still a deadhead grateful to alive
Ain't no time to hate my friend. I think people are calling out D & C & should. The only reason Mayer is in that band is cause he has the same mgr. as Weir. Its a warped biz arrangement. It's not the same spirit at all.
Billy & The Kids w/Billy Strings on electric is the real deal. You feel it. Peace out ⚡🙏😎
@@CheriRichards you started your post with “Ain’t no time time”, then immediately started hating.
@@Jon-rz2nn perhaps..... if that's how you interpret my comments. I was very complimentary of Billy & the Kids yet you only respond to my honest critique of D & C...
Peace out.
RIP James, Fare thee Well!!
The music is in great hands. I can’t even imagine how proud Billy K must have been during this performance.
Rest in Peace, James Casey. Such talent, gone too soon.
youre killing me here... one of the greatest songs on earth. ya'll did it. gratitude.
I like to think that the dude at 5:55 and the cutie at 3:10 found each other on that warm Colorado night.
RIP Casey take those sweet Melodies to the great gig in the sky
I write this every single time, but JAMES CASEY, GOD FUCKING DAMN!!!!! Always enjoy this, even through the tears...they're happier tears these days though - RIP JAMES
I was there!!! One of my favorite Dead tunes of all time too!! Billy did a stellar job covering those vocals and guitar parts!
Ouch....this hurts so good
❤⚡💙
From 6:28 to the end is insane, Billy's fucking crushing it
My friend was trying to make conversation and we both stopped mid-sentence at that part… it GRIPPED your attention in an indescribable way
If he were a bit younger, I'd say he was Jerry reincarnated.
This group has the "Dead magic" that I haven't felt since Jerry died. Incredible!
Worthy of coming back again & again & again.
& I do ✌️🏴
Heart Beat of America cap on, He's the real DEAL!
I’ve seen a lot people dissing th, I think he’s a great singer and his harmonies r fuckin amazing here!
I've been listening to Billy doing bluegrass for years. I first heard this I swear I thought it was Jerry. Most don't know Jerry started out playing blue grass here in NC too. Billy can play any syringed instrument, but his mastery of the electric guitar leaves me speecless
Billy's seamless transition from lead to rhythm is top notch
Lol I’m the guy walking down the stairs in the avs shirt when they zoom in on that girl dancing.
I was watching this today and was like “WOAH ITS ME!”
Dude. That crescendo heart on the sleeve final 2 minutes. Thank you Billy strings and thank you Billy and the kids. This was so good.
Love added sax to Jerry’s and Robert Hunter song. Thanks
This is Jerry’s last song??? No way I didn’t know
An immensely satisfying version.
He sounds so good singing this song
I love you billy
Ok, they teleported the Branford in to the mix. Love it!!! Thank you Billy Strings.
Not quite the "Garcia Wept" 3/27/95 version, but Billy's cover eases my soul!
Got a link for that?! 🙏
@@kellyc5682 ua-cam.com/video/xEHccmh-Alk/v-deo.html
WOW!!! Truly beautiful!!! Much love 💗
Forever James Casey you are in my prayers. So much talent.
Billy transports me away from this reality. Best picker since Jerry, imo. He doesn't "overplay" like 90% of people do these days. Bluegrass background .
Conquer *)
Full body goosebumps
This is my favorite Dead "cover band" of all since Jerry passed
A group of world class musicians- bravo,
So special to hear that prison guitar wailing through Red Rocks!❤️❤️❤️
Probably the best version next to Jer.. cleeannn
James passed away today, lovey tribute
