    Billy Strings at the Commodore Ballroom Vancouver (990 capacity). I can’t say I got the full Billy Strings experience because I politely declined the free hits of acid I was offered in the lineup to get in 😆. Still though, what an experience it was! Amazing show! While bluegrass is not something I listen to a whole lot of I definitely dig Billy’s brand of (psychadelic?) bluegrass in the live setting. The long jams get his fanbase literally jumping & the energy is totally infectious.
    Met lots of super friendly travelling fans. 
    Feel very lucky my first Billy experience was up close in a small venue. 
    Just finished listening to that show, and it’s so good. Had a friend at the Eugene show and heard it was her favorite out of 17 Billy shows. You were next to us at ATL2 right?

    Neil Young & The Chrome Hearts.

    Worth the 3-hour drive there to see NY on the Grounds of Woodstock.
