    I liked the instrumental... not a fan of the singing.  Interesting cover though. 

    And this confirms what I’ve been saying for years.... Pearl Jam really needs some mannequins on stage.

    I liked the music and vocals.

    Billy Strings is someone I've been hearing a lot about lately, but his show was sold out when he came through town last month.

    He's pretty amazing on acoustic guitar, certainly an awesome flatpicker.

    Billy is the best- the first time I saw him a couple of years ago he played this and I was blown away.  Can't wait to for the two Cambridge shows next week!  And yes this dude can play.

    @JimmyV I was lucky to get Chloe/Crown at the St. Louis show last month. Enjoy the show, Billy/the band is awesome!

    BMFS is a force to be reckoned with. You're gonna have a blast. His setlists of late have been featured less covers (traditional music being the exception) than they used to. Maybe he's intentionally leaning more into his own growing catalog, I dunno. I lucked out at got Crown of Thorns at his Halloween show last year...I looked around the auditorium and no one know what he was playing, meanwhile my mind was melting out of my ears. Hopefully the folks going to this year's Ohana get a collabo w/ him and Eddie.

    They did Crown of Thorns at Sea Hear Now.  We were just getting in the venue to see him and we hear that.  He and his band can play!

    this was awesome - I appreciate the fact he picked In Hiding vs. a more popular track.
