live leads to an unprecedented appreciation of the workings of the acoustic instruments of bluegrass. Jarrod, Royal and Billy compliment William's extreme flatpicking dexterity and pedal exploration. His catalog keeps the intrigue ongoing. His humility keeps it all real. Get in the pasture while you can, it's still intimate and cost effective. Who knows what song is going to show up at the next one?

Just watched this PBS show......I'm now a Billy Strings fan! Just enough lysergic sweetener on my bluegrass to make it compelling for me. I will catch a live show for sure.

all I can say was WOW!!! What a great show and time to end our 3 show run. The weather in Milwaukee was incredible after the St. Louis and Aurora shows. 1st time ever at Summerfest-what a great venue with tones of things to do, see and eat and then you add Dark Star to end the day.. YAHOOO!!! Rude--- what can I say--- it was so great to meet and hang out with you and the special treat really added to the fun and made my evening complete. I will never forget that night and you & your wife. You guys are special people that really understand the true meaning to our scene. thank you so much and be safe and have fun travels and hope you guys got some good "Beatle Juice time" after the show.... LOL Show highlights for me---- Black Peter (this song is my wifes favorite and we got it on the last night) Touch of Grey--- this song really hit me since I just turned 50 in June Dear Mr. Fantasy--- Rob B killed this song--hell the whole band killed every song.... LOL Thank you Dark Star for such a great time. Be safe everybody and enjoy the day

We got dosed hard last night in the pasture with the other goats. First set, 75 minutes with a Pretty Daughter early in the set and a nice version of Been All around this world. Royal is getting near Kahn territory with his bass interactions with Billy, very reminiscent of Jerry and John collaborations. Second set went from 10:30 to midnight because of the double encore of a 17 minute Meet Me At The Creek, opened up a new plane of consciousness, incredible to lay that out after what seemed already like a complete show. Deal is getting really, really close to the exploration and rounding of repeating leads that Jerry latched on to to whip everyone into a feeding frenzy. Sorry to have missed DSO, I really wanted to get in a show but String's tickets went on sale and I had tunnel vision. He just keeps getting better with each experience. Red Rocking Chair has a whole new intro than what he had been building.
