Idk why but when he said "remember places? they're pretty great" at 20:52 I laughed so much

Education is important but banjo is importanter.

you're a beautiful human being

How did I miss this?!?!? Noooooo!!!!!

I'm Finger Lakes born and raised, glad you've found a cozy place in the most beautiful part of NewYork State

It's funny, on the Friday you did this livestream, I just happened to have seen your NPR Tiny Desk concert from September 2009. That 2009 concert was the first time I ever heard your music. I remember feeling shocked at how good your music was, yet I'd never heard of you before. Here we are 11 years later. That's 11 years that I have been listening to your music, going to your concerts when I can, and buying your albums. Your music has accompanied me through some of the worst, and best times in my life. I just wanted to express my gratitude to you for what you do, for what you've given me. Thank you.

On the nails: James Taylor has a great video on how he strengthens his nails, I think he does it with fiberglass or something like that. It's up on RU-vid, check it out!

Brother, I would die a happy and grateful man if you allowed me to play a terrible version of one of your songs on guitar in your presence. Maybe even terribly sing harmony if you were generous enough to play.....let’s make it happen. In all seriousness, I’ve been in awe of you since I discovered that first NPR tiny desk concert all those years ago. I don’t think a day or two has gone by since then without your music being a part of my life. Crazy to think about. I own all the records. I’ve seen every show in Baltimore/DC. I scour RU-vid for live iterations of every song. Your most recent album and video work related to In Little Fires and When the Bird Sees the Solid Ground is downright phenomenal. I can’t thank you enough for doing what you do.

Revelation Blues at about 35 minutes is staggering-I nearly cried.

Rivers was my favorite song of TTMOE for long time. I was a little sad it wasn't on the concert set list for the one I attended but that concert is still one of my favorite live music experiences I've ever had.

There is the some kind of god of nature and music

I am also live from the Finger Lakes. A little south of Ithaca. Your playing and singing make me incredibly happy.

35:45 He talks about the tuning for revelation blues if anyone is interested

That ending to King of Spain has given me the biggest smile I have had in a month

Real Love 21:19

Love that story that you got that tuning from JV and played a snippet of Perth.

That was great! Thanks again!!!!

18:20 I'm still laughing for "these two guys in the middle"😂

Revelations blues is one of the greatest songs ever made.

Thank you for the John Prine. I was heartbroken when I heard the news.

Cool vibes. I hang and jam around the southern tip of Keuka Lake.

We watched and listened to this livestream at the veterinary clinic where I work today and everyone loved it! I think you have some new fans. I’m not sure what the cat thought. (She was under anesthesia so I couldn’t ask her.)

Thank you for the John Prine cover, I cried listening to it. He will be missed. Thank you Kristian.

This is a lovely treasure in these times.

This is awesome! You Make that banjo sing!

Can’t believe I missed this when it was live…love you TMOE

Shoot >.< missed it live. Love ya 💙

Thank you so much Kristian for sharing your music with us, shining a light in dark times. we love you.

Thanks for beginning it all with 'Nationalteatern - Men bara om min älskade väntar' and even more thank you for sending us all happiness with the song 'Idas sommarvisa' from Pippi Longstocking. We sure needed a bit of sunshine at this time...! Best regards from Sala!

From Russia with love!

I wish I could like this more than just once.

I loved this. The intimacy of it was so special. Aside from a few things online recently, I’ve only seen festival appearances. I think it’s time for me to delve deeper.

35:00 PERTH! I love justin too!

Watching this after you show at the Bijou in Knoxville. Absolute magic. Thank you for existing

Dream. Hope. Beautiful. Beautiful.

Thank you for the romance

The first song is one of my favorite Dylan songs. So pleasantly surprised to hear you sing that

Love this!!!! Thank you

I usually don't comment on videos but...damn...so many chills. missed most of the stream so I am (re)watching it right now. keep on keeping on

I live in Naples, NY on the south end of Canandaigua Lake - good to know you're nearby! Thanks for sharing your music and for inspiring great songwriting around the globe. Peace brother!

: O!!!! wild hunting ten years! omg

The best thing about you is that you are so simple, humble and kind. I've been following you for years now and there is something so transcendental in your music, which only your music can express. Keep spreading the love :)

59:40-ish SHINE!

Tell us more about that "tea" you were drinking : )

Love your music sooo much! Thank you!🤩

I became so excited as soon as you said, " a gentleman from Wisconsin" and started playing the Justin's tune. Love you both! I grew up in Northern Wisconsin and he and his music is very near and dear to my heart. 💓

❤️❤️❤️
