Just found out about the kid the other day. Unfortunately he won't be coming to my state to play , Yet .

My first show was fortunate enough the at an awesome, small, general admission venue. Then he came back through with the Willie Nelson tour... I'll try to make 2-3 shows on his upcoming tour.

Widespread Panic has my soul, but this kid fucking rips!

I fell in love with him like 5 years ago Actually first discovered him doing demos for Carters on $50k vintage Martins.

He's been pretty big amongst guitarists for awhile now. Saw him in Denver last year, killer show.

Already starting to plan this Red Rocks trip... Anyone else gonna be in Denver in May?

I tried to get on the fair presale list, but wasn't picked. Got any extras?

 

[Trackrat]

Hope he has time to come to Minnesota

 

[FlyingLow]

I had ONE extra for Friday, but traded it to the owner of a fly shop to guide/take me and a buddy out fishing on Saturday.... seemed like a good deal at the time, considering guides go for anywhere between $400-700 a day.

I had missed this somehow and it's definitely relevant to this forum. Dierks has a big festy in CO each year that looks like fun.

 

[FlyingLow]

Cant wait to get to RR in 10 days!

 

[FlyingLow]

Turns out we have one extra for Friday at Red Rocks... any of you CombustionFuckers interested?

 

[FlyingLow]

RedRocks was the jam! Shows are available on Nugs.net for those with access.

it was cold and wet night one, and beautiful night 2.

I just watched a pretty interesting podcast with Billy and Otiel from Dead & Co (plus some comedian guy I guess). Billy is like an open book and gives a lot of insightful info about the difficulties he had in his youth. It's from a couple of years ago, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
