Love this! First song, I see a reference to Warren Zevon: "Transverse City." Thank you, really enjoying multiple plays of this album!!! Had first heard Leadfoot; neat to heard that again. And, Catch and Release -- what a great story!
Billy is a throw back. Not sure if he was born late.... or just in time. All my guitar heroes are either in the ground or soon to be. Billy gives hope for the future
That’s awesome. I am put up with a broken foot and couldn’t make it. I figure Terry would play a bit. What songs did they do? Their album together is perfect.
If Eddie had his Eruption… Billy has his Exorcism.. Driving the demons away and freeing our minds from our Demons, spreading love and joy with a flatpick
This old shaman would gladly fire up with you anytime you come to south Texas Houston area. It would be a great honor for me. All great things for you Billy Strings!!
How in the heck is there not 990,000 more views on this one after a week. This is a banger, great tune Billy, it'll be fun to see where this song goes when you boys play it live.
