    Remember if you do get two tickets, your wife can stay at home with the dogs. I will go if I strike out. Either way you still get to score :gfa:

    Hell nah. I think the que started at 930. Not 100% sure. Didn't get "in" until like 10:07 or something.

    Live or die tomorrow. Otherwise I will be offering blowjobs in the alley behind Tootsies each night of the run until I score one.

    I may go to Knoxville at the end of the month offering the same deal. Depends on what the doctor tells me about the sores on my mouth next week.

    Just call me the Daddy Rabbit :mulletsmug:

    Somehow snagged a single restricted view ticket after 500 refreshes at 10:40

    It doesn't matter at the Ryman because of the standing room on the balcony. But this really ain't a restricted view ticket. The pole is right beside me to my left, and my primary view is looking right.

    Never miss a Sunday show.

    Edit add on: the best part is the restricted view tickets are the cheapest.

    Started listening/watching Billy Strings once the Bills went up three scores on the Patriots. Not disappointed 40 minutes later that I missed any part of this game.

    IMO, he is right now, as good as any live player I’ve seen. He’s burning fire right now.

    Won't get to see any of the special guests unless there is a surprise, but catching the core group of this tour in May. They are all great in their own rights. Micheal Cleveland is top notch on the fiddle.

    It will be Bela with Michael Cleveland, Jacob Jolliff, Cody Kilby, Justin Moses, & Mark Schatz.

    Here’s Michael sitting in with Billy.



    You can tell when a camera person doesn’t really know bluegrass. Missed Jarrod’s whole first solo planning between the others to try to see who had lead.

    2nd run by Michael is :chefskiss:

    Hot Buttered Rum fans in here? Definitely not traditional (have drums sometimes). Progressive bluegrass/Jam/Americana. Used to tear these guys up, and recently revisited them.

    Is Fireline the most anticipated live song of Billy's to catch or is it Fireline?

    'Cause it's a poison dream
    Keeps me running through the night
    I'll take it all and then some more

    The opening verse is my favorite in the song. They just put the winter wonderland show up on Nugz, but no England shows which would be lame.

    They are going to have to replace the stained glass at the Ryman. Most of it all just got melted off.

    I’ve been working a lot on learning mandolin for some Garcia/Grisman and Doc Watson/Grisman stuff and playing along with the recordings. Grisman can convey so much emotion on the mando and play so many styles. He’s incredible.

    Bela’s My Bluegrass Heart show was one of the best music experiences I’ve had in a while.

    If this is still coming near any of you, you should go without a doubt. Pretty sure I’m going to catch another night this summer/fall.

    I used to hope that I could dim the lights, ply my wife with a few glasses of wine and get lucky.

    Now when I dim the lights after a few glasses of wine, it’s in hope she falls asleep so I can change the channel from this terrible movie and YouTube Strings latest on the big screen.

    Figured this little run through the southeast was going to happen when, about a month ago, The Lyric in Oxford MS announced Bela was playing there. Wasn’t on Bela’s website, so figured they jumped the gun announcing it. Glad they’re swinging through Bham

    I was going to see my 2nd MBH show either in Richmond or at the Earl Scruggs fest coming up, but catching this Greensboro show instead now. Not sure how they’ll do these as far as set lengths and how much they’ll play together, but I can’t pass up another chance to see Bela and Chris Thile on the stage together.

    Still kicking myself for not going to the Ryman MBH show at the beginning of the year when pretty much every bluegrass heavy hitter was there as well as the Flecktones.

    The collaborations are one of the best parts about bluegrass. One of the reasons I started playing mandolin is so I could join jams at bluegrass festival lots/campgrounds.

    I’ve even seen pretty well known players out jamming with patrons in those circles.
