That wasn't bad. I'm not a huge bluegrass fan, but those guys tend to be great musicians.

Saw him in 23…. Parking lot n crowd looked more like the jam band crowd than traditional bluegrass/ roots.

Billy and the band was fantastic and played forever. Don’t know how long they went but at 11:30 I was like, “Man, I gotta work tomorrow!” and split.

He can play, no doubt.

I first heard/saw the YouTube video for "Dust In A Baggie" years ago. I thought he was autistic.

my cousin plays with him occasionally, he was invited to play Bridgestone with him, all of 12 years old. I never have met Billy, but close sources say he is one hell of a nice guy with a huge heart.

Is he better than Waffletit Van Hağar?
Because he's REALLY good. Better than anyone in the metal scene today, by a large margin.
