Dust in a Baggie - Billy Strings 

Danm good

Why did yu wait so long to upload

What a talent - headed there now

I like this one better

Boomer is still my hero

@Chrissie Julien are you blind

LOL

Solves mysteries with a dog, now that actually made me laugh out loud. Thanks Liro!

Jinkies! By Gum!

Scott Witkowski no truer words have ever been spoken

Cheers to the turth

Exactly, Scott... exactly.

XM radio has bluegrass. Sometimes Sun Radio in Austin plays it. Their app is free.

amen brother

Nashville is where country comes to die.. coming from a guy who lives 30 miles out

@@Farmstock24v Was there last weekend. Country isn't what it was 30 years ago, thats the problem.

@@darken3150 it is, but nashville doesnt play it. Bunch of liberals infected the industry

@@Farmstock24v Ahh you are one of those. Sad.

@@darken3150 He's not wrong though. I live in Tennessee too and Nashville is pretty liberal. Country is still the same as it was, just not the kind you hear on the radio or what is getting played the most. Like garbage progressive styles like "Old Town Road". Nashville is more modern country centric. The rest of the state, like the east haven't lost their touch though. Glad I live in the east and away from liberals. It's not "sad", it's reality. I'm sorry you can't see it and must think they are onto something. When really liberals are idiots. And people wonder why so many Californians are leaving and coming to places like Tennessee. They are leaving by the hundreds of thousands. Liberalism ruins the country. California is a shit hole because of liberals/democrats. Look at any city that is politically run like that and you will find nothing but disease, crime, homeless and no progress. Anyway, I help manage a record label and the good music isn't really being paid much attention tbh. There are so many talented artists out there but people like you will never hear them because you don't care to look.

Loyal not a leech

Bro got no shoes on, straight up country

It looks like he's his drug dealer man :)

​@@JamesGillmore-k3mhe's in the house buddy

@@devilsoffspring5519 That was my first thought...

LOL I was thinking the same thing. Just put it back behind your ear and stop already...

That guys on some dust from a baggie

That's definitely weed.

Omg yes lmmfao I was thinking the same fucking thing

Lmao

Lmao this here.

Lmaoooo

Lmao

Golden

Living In moms basement finally paid off.

Lmao

This is the one 😅😅😅😅

Haha Yup! xD

🤣😂 I can’t even

Haha, seriously!

Yeah I was in this circle thru 2007-2013. Bill was in a hard place and left Mid Michigan and moved in with my older brother in Traverse City and lived in his basement for 2 or 3 years. I knew Boomer had serious talent but at the time I had no idea I was in the presence of a Legend. This is actually my brother's Video. His channel is Lower Standards. He played on words with our last name "Lower". Idk but I agree we definitely recognized Bills talent. I wasn't as aware but my brother recognized from the beginning

Frodo we need to get back to the Shire

underrated lmao

Hahaha. Nice

Also has no sense of rhythm 😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 side quests yano 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I agree this young man has an amazing talent

That's great to hear God damn. I remember hearing this dust in the baggie and being like damn this dude's on another level

For real. I saw this video and discovered one of my now favorite artists. Home is legit one of my favorite albums. It’s so fuckin food. Bluegrass with a heavy dose of psyche-rock. Can’t wait to eventually see him live, hopefully at a festival with Umphrey’s McGee or something.

Hard work got Billy where he is - a legend for inspiration in Doc Watson, and a good ol' flat picking old man. But Billy did the work, and it sure makes me glad to hear him just _smash_ it out eh. He's a legend himself now!

billy won a grammy? damn i didn’t know that

chimo jones don't forget the satchel

It was either that or a bag of meth, you chose wisely my son!

Hahaha

It’s g c d in chords just need to get that one finger to move 500 mph lmao

😂😂😂

He just want to make sure they're all happy with their latest narcotics purchase

Thats probably the dope

I got a very "Can i light this now?" Vibe off of him. But yes he was probably selling them weed at minimum.

Who wears shoes in the summer?

Lmaooo

Amen. ... Or as his boy would say, "HEEEEEIIILLL YEAAAAHHHH!!!"

I don't care if there's another version, this is the standard

And thats why im here

Because it's raw and untouched by anyone else...

@@americanmaceire1743 agreed brother

BAHAHAHAHA!!! 🤣🤣🤣😆✌

I laughed waaayyy too hard at your post hahahahaha

Shiiiiit I lost it when he started dancing. You can't learn that in the city! ☆

At first I thought you meant "jiggle"tits... Then I watched vid again. You're right, Giggletits he is.

Stiflers cousin will be there with mr giggles

Robert Marshall amen, subscribed.

Same

Knot Random

You mean trap music with a southern accent?

Me too

He just shrugs his head oh that number no problem.

Hahah... yea and you could see his brain click and wham!

All the Yes.

Brett Bentley this was in my recommended today !

And here we are 7 years later.

lmaaaao can't wait for the "How does this first show up in my recommened now"

Its here

It's fucking true 😂

Best comment

Only ever comment that has actually made me lol

😂😂😂

Genius

Or until they vacuum.

You won this month's rally of the Green T-shirt Guy-competition. Congratz!

Your boy in the background is highlighted in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vc-iiqwyWyc.html

@@vigeo5 not all heros wear capes (or green shirts). Who ever posted that deserves our dude's unlit cigarette.

You don't understand. That man IS the all powerful Dustin Abbagie.

I feel like there was always that guy at high school parties

You ain’t lying

Indeed my friend!

Kirk Hope i clicked on curiosity. Not my kind of music but blown away. Especially the pickin!!

Agreed!

Yezzz

Yep.

He’s slept on everybody’s couch at least once and escaped christian rehab

He lives on my couch

Hell, their might be a green shirt dude standing behind anyone of us right now ..

My green shirt dudes name was a friend I had when I was 18 and his name was Andrew. I was always amazed how prepared that satchel always kept him, that's something I'll never forget

I concur

Used to be all that was on RU-vid. Now its just professionally made videos by basically companies to make money off views.. Tottal trash now beside a few jems like this that show up...

Yesss

@@n.randall6152 dude what videos are you watching, actually expand your search and you'll find more RU-vidrs who are independent and do it professionally. Actually sad if you think that

N. Randall lookin in the wrong place mate. Lots of awesome shit on here :)

Yeah Boi

Deez nuts

Be back next year too

Right here, right now 🇳🇿🤘❤

Ye brudder

And you're getting a hook up too..he says

Down south some states it fucking is a deal lmao

Classic..

Lol

Lmao

mangosquirrel117 😆

I literally laughed out loud at that one! Nice one!

You win bro, literally coughed and chuckled at the same time when I read this

He seems real friendly too but I bet u love your dog I hope Billy never forgets him cuz Billy is going places WATCH

I liked to busted a gut laughing that hard, your comment was the best I've read in a long time. So true, So true.

He does have that look.

Hahaaaa

He's in prison.

@@dougg5707 know his name by chance?

@@joshuagibson2520 I don't have a clue bud. Just being stupid. inspired by the nature of the song lyrics Know what I'm saying? The performer is Billy Strings. He went from blue collar Country boy partying in someone's basement playing guitar for his friends, to national recognition with a Grammy, and standing on the stage at the Grand Ole Opry selling out every show. He's a household name in folk/ bluegrass/ country and any guitarist that looks for inspiration knows who he is. His dad is no slouch with six strings either.

'tronic

I hope not, I bought it of that dude signed by Billy off Ebay 3 weeks ago.

It's the principle of being so close to death

Michael Craft how do you mean?

niece one

the real legend is green shirt guy come on now

billy wouldve broke out regardless

@@iamPROTOTYPE yes probably, but you enderestimate the power of a single yt video

@@donjtrump wasn’t long ago, until Billy had pretty much already made it , this video didn’t have many views at all. He was going places, saw that the first time I saw him 10 years ago

@@michaelmaas5544 this dropped 2 years ago, it’s a video out of him performing this song 4 years ago.

🤣🤣

This had me rolling

I laughed way too hard at this

So funny

Geezus kryst

I agree this awesome!!!

The dialogue to the people and voices

He's big now. Billy Strings.

Check out this performance : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hsp5LpVjj90.html

the only thing he needed was a cowbell

johnmichael karma god’s teeth yes

Lmao same I’ve watched this video so many times

he is fucking cool

Nailed it

Man this one got me so good

Fuck I can't stop laughing

😂😂😂😂

Its hard to get leave when you can't find the door😫

Lmao

Epic

Yeah I've bought stuff from some pretty cool people in the past 40 years too.

Perfect.

Dan Paul look like this guy never left the dealers House or smoked something in 1950 and woke up in 2016

I don't carry Dapper Dan, I carry FOP

I dont want fop God damnit.. I'm a dapper Dan man.

Well, it seems this place is a geographic anomoly......2 weeks from everywhere.

Bruh this comment got me 🤣🤣🤣

I came across this just as he pulled the cigarette out and it killed me 😂

And he doesn’t know how to ask for it back !😂😂

Lmfao

Lmaoooooo

I think CMF MARTIN had a little to do with it... They can make an acoustic guitar sound like God.... Not banjos..if Billy was playing this on a takamine ... It would not sound like that ... Trust

Floss picking ...?

@@willk.illyouii5583 flatpicking, billy is one of the best modern day at it one of the best old Timers to do it was Tony Rice RIP his song Church Street Blues is good but Billy mainly learned from guys like Doc Watson with songs like Browns Ferry Blues, real Appalachian Americana flatpicking all it needs is some feet tapping door dancing

His daddy taught him flatpickin blue grass .

@@willk.illyouii5583 sounds like a fresh set of coated elixer strings as well

Barefoot in the zone.

I think he's better known for solving mysteries with his dog. Had a TV show or something.

You mean blues clues?!?!

@@waltwhite9263 Come on man, dirty blonde hair and high in a green shirt and khakhis... Zoinks! Give the dude some Scooby Snacks 🤣

@@d1p70 lol

iPirate iPhexia I just put my blunt to tha screen

@@watchingyourvideo8029 you waste weed, unless you're sharing

Buy your own weed fuck boi

That's hilarious. Lol

I think a bit of both

Sounds like you know alot about it !! 🙄

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm cracking up!!!!

Both, definitely both. The way he smiled at some of those lyrics ya'd think the song was written about him. 😁

He used to play in a metal band.. his Gramma wanted to enjoy his music so he started bluegrass for grammaw. He's dope huh

@@daisyplanter3377 I would love to see him do some metal, he would soar to the top with the Vai's Satriani and Malmsteens. Billy needs to not hold himself back and be more like John5 and spread his talent and see where it goes.

@@aielwar uhhhhh

@@aielwar This is like literally the worst time in music history to mention someone Manson related lol...

Dedicated is a better word ;)

Nailed it 👍

I feel like he's about to offer Billy a quest at the conclusion of this song....

The Green shirt guy ...Did he piss his pants??

Goat 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐♑♑♑🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

Like snoop said a real friend doesn't care about what you have or don't have he just cares!!!

Agreed

Yup. Lul. The acoustics in that basement were on point

definitely

By a mile it's the best version of this song.

Robert A. K you should check him out he’s pretty big now name is Billy Strings

Calloway Mills I was just about to say the same thing

Scott H. Biram

I will guys, thx!

You look so awkward from a video standpoint, but it really shows that it's just something casually recorded with the Boyz lol

@@stearnstroy I have no idea who this guy is, but it does sum up what our green shirted friend was experiencing pretty well 🤣.

He’s here everyone he’s here!!!!

@@LowerStandards33 hhahahhahahahha

Man if that's really you we need someone with a podcast to interview you. I think we all have a lot of questions

Ya know that’s bluegrass

@@Winny69 I mean if you want to get technical about song genres, I'm pretty sure nothing on country radio is country...

@@doomsdaydiesel country is just blue grass rock though...

Doomsday Diesel Amen to that !!!!

dbspaceoditty At least it's supposed to be

If you stop at exactly 1:14 you really get everything you ever wanted 😂

If there's a discount for bulk ordering please give me a holler.

A lawn hippie

I’m crying laughing. I knew someone in the comments would give him hell like I’ve wanted to the entire song

Guy is quite famous 😊

this was about a decade before he became the world famous Grammy-winning face of modern Bluegrass.

You are 100% correct . And good for him! I said the exact same thing the first time i heard this about a year and a half ago. Knew it was only a matter of time until he blew up. A talent like this come around once in a lifetime. Im glad we are all here for it!

He’s incredibly talented.

I hadn't heard. I'm really happy for him, well deserved.

I looked hard for this one on Billy's channel and couldn't find it.. idk if it's just lost in the gigantic pile of vids and music or if it actually got cut.. glad I found it here.. pure fire!

I only found this because of constant guitar videos and this was my introduction to billy. Was an awesome find for sure!!

Tony Johnson the jealous ones

The ones that be like, "Dust in a baggie? That thar's devil music."

Someone who thought they could play guitar until they heard this.

🤣🤣🤣

Best comment so far and there are some great ones.

He definitely came downstairs looking for a light and got treated to the best concert of his life

Hes in prison for dust in a baggie

@@mattb4461 please say it ain’t so!

He passed away billy spoke in an interview with Theo Von 🙏

This is the first of heard of him. He sounds amazing

@@carolevenden4532 he's got a couple good albums now with his current band, but be sure to check out his early stuff with Don Julin too... some really good performances here on youtube.

@@robertjohnson1681 thank you

That leg slapping is slappin

It's tremendous, just great!!!

I agree. I have been laughing for 10 minutes straight!

This one is good, but the one on "Ride of the Valkryies" might be my all time fave. About peed my pants.

laughed so hard i had tears

Try any jocko willink video and read the comment section. Thank me later

Like when you bring the guy soda in left 4 dead

Coincidentally, that item is also called "Dust In a Baggie" and will give you twenty long years, if you talk to town guards while having it in your inventory.

fucking lol

Krombopulous Michael yes but it does up your invincibility a few points

@@MyBrokeAssFriends The debuff you get when the initial buff wears off is just not worth it to me with my current character build.

steel belt scream, flat glass screen and the last of the tubes. Heavy enough to kill a man.

Such a heavy beast 😂😂

I had one, it felt like it weighed 400 pounds

Such a beast to move by yourself.

That’s exactly what I thought.

Lolllll

Would be correct if it was Ketamine or Molly because that guy is definitely a wook

I felt the same way reading your message bro

Me too he actually did better live it was an accident even seeing him

I mean if there was moonshine yea I would see that.

That's a basement no windows are mounted that high normally

Take your shoes off. You’ll get em dirty in here.

My dude counted to 1 and gave up

He was playing air spoons but got winded

You made me laugh out loud.

I'd give him a smoke just for the ytv

Dead 😂

Hahahah !!!!

Fuckin hippies man. They'll try to bum your deodorant if they use it

Only if it's patchouli bruh....

"Hold my ciggy"

Hold my satchel

@Gary Watson He just won the Grammy

Hold my baggie

The green shirt guy looks nervous when Billy starts up this song! Wonder what’s in that big old bag?

^this^

Jason Zeke Robert Johnson?

Nah....he gave the devil guitar lessons at the crossroads

I believe it

dude's got a point. It's unbelievable how fast this guy became a prominent part of my consciousness and it's even more unbelievable watching him play I have never seen fingers fly that fast! But then again, all the best musicians are affiliated with satan. 🤘🤓🤘

Marijuana has that affect.

I have seen some incredible live music in my day but if someone plays like that in my living room, I'm going to act same way
