Not sure who you saw, but the song is Land of the Navajo written by Peter Rowan and played by Old & In The Way and other groups he’s been in.
Not sure if discussed here but Peter Rowan’s new album is really good. Billy and Molly Tuttle are on it. He’s has one of the best voices in bluegrass history.
Now I want to hear Gallows Pole covered. Spoiler I could probably fill sheet after sheet of covers I dream about Spoiler
This girl is local to me. Charleston, WV. I heard this one on tiktok and fell in love with her voice.
Tickets on sale this week. THEBLUERAIDER Owsley Drew Swinney Esq Spoiler hey raider, word was 2 nights at bridgestone + 1 night at ryman. have to get arena ticket to qualify for ryman sale. heard from a friend. havent read up on it yet.
Section 120 rows JJ/KK for Bridgestone. Pits for Atlanta. Struck out on Ryman lottery, hoping for a stroke of luck during the general sale Friday (lol). Would rather hit the GA theater lottery if I could only get one, so maybe that’ll come through.

Seems like there’s a lot of conflicting info out there. I’ve seen people say they’ve called the Ryman already and one was told that the lottery email has already been sent while the other was told it will be sent after the general sale for Bridgestone. So I guess we’ve still got some hope.
I couldn't buy tickets for Saturday at Bridgestone because I was told that someone had already bought them. Tried in 3 different browsers and got the same message each time. Hopefully I can at least get them at public onsale since the place is so big. Zero hope for Ryman but I'm going to try
I had the best success using a computer. It would refresh pretty quick on the screen and you would have to play whack-a-mole with the tickets as they popped up. I did kicked out because I bought two. Then went back thinking I want to take someone else. Had three in my cart to purchase, clicked buy, and got zapped. 4 max per night.
Got into a bind with work and only got 1 night each in Winston and Charleston. Need to grab the other two nights on Friday or get them on the secondary market. Didn’t try for Nashville but sounds like I should have joined the party. There aren’t really words for the Asheville run, and Monday night was pure absurdity with the switches to electric. Insane weekend.

I think this is the venue presale code for all venues FYI. Just came to say I grabbed my missing Winston and Charleston tickets with the same code.
Started on Oct 31 for some reason Holy shit. Spoiler stopped to get gas. Still have 2.5 hrs of driving. Got through Fire. As a classic rock fan, this is killer. Owsley got his Zeppelin
Thoughts? "I looked up FAIR ATX TICKETING and it is a lotto if the demand is more than the available seats which is for sure will be. So itll probably work like phish lotto tickets, you sign up give a credit card number and they draw names." Spoiler
Like you just know from the first stroke of the Mando. Goosebumps standing back up typing this out. Bring it back bring it back Bring it back bring it back Oh now oh now oh now oh Like Drew Swinney Esq said ," Oh Billy" Spoiler saw Robert Plant & Alison Kraus cover it at Roo this summer followed by Billy on the same stage later that night. So a little thought to make me feel better from the FOMO gone live.
Hadn’t looked at set list. Really mad I missed this show, especially bc of the Fearless Fearless is one of my favorite jams. For example:
That was awesome. Listened to Meddle on the way home the next day because of that. The stretch from Soldier’s Joy where Billy does the mandolin fingering while Jarrod is still picking, then through Evermore, War Pigs, and Fearless was the shit. The whole feel of the theme with the musical theatre aspect was fun. Even during set break all the screens were just playing fire and there was tense scores from the movies kind of setting the mood. When they didn’t cover songs directly about LoTR, they picked songs whose title/theme matched that part of the books each night. You might not have watched N2 yet but the guy from Crooked Still who played Gollum had everyone in Asheville singing “I peed on a bird” the next day. The whole Asheville Club bar was singing it before we went in in Monday. That guy was wild.
I feel like I can bust out some deep cuts from bluegrass/roots type music, and I had no clue what was going on at the time. I was wondering how the hell people around me knew what they were singing. It has definitely been reverberating in the house this week.
Me - "hey bae, I peed on a bird" What Me - "I peed on a bird" How did that happen Me - " I stood on the edge of the cliff peed on a bird" No you didn't
