    Billy Strings is known to play a Dead song or two every other night... Dude likes to jam.

    This is from Red Rocks past Sunday. He was the opening act for Greensky Bluegrass. The place is packed! Looks like he's headlining.

    I don't think it's smoke machines that makes all the fog... :D

    He should have headlined, he absolutely crushed the GSBG set. Not even close.

    Does anyone know if there's any typical timeframe JRAD shows (from the soundboard) are posted on Archive.org? Because I'd really like to hear this whole Texas run that just finished, but I don't want to check every day to see if it's been uploaded.

    There is no typical timeframe, unfortunately. Could be next week, next month or next year...

    Had my first JRAD experience last May it was the most fun I've had in a long time. A very experienced crowd certainly helped.

    Row E Lower Balcony for Friday 9/25. Not bad but we are IN and are NOT way on the back:)

    I’m still debating to buy some Loge seats on the re-sale market for Friday night 2/21/2020.

    We have Row G far left for Sunday night 2/23/2020.

    Excited to know we’ll be at 2 shows minimum in 2020.

    Decided to double up for Saturday 9/26 as well. Row K but Row K at Wellmont is still pretty great. Still lower balcony. There are a whole slew of seats WAY back.

    Plus it’s on the Left side and my Barbara hears better from Marco’s side!!!!

    I’m well aware of this - plus she likes his almost over-the-top playing. She loves the orchestral stuff and loves when he plays the organ and piano at the same time.

    Plus 9/26 is now sold out except a couple of $330 premium Loge seats

    Friday 9/25 has only a few seats available at the very back of the upper balcony.

    So I guess that Krasno was not a lock... Can this band really stay together with a new guitarist whenever they do a new run of shows?

    I've read multiple times that this band was going to take off but then Casal passed away.
    I don't know man, all instrumentals.. I just don't see it.
    There were only a few hundred people when I saw them them last year in NorCal.
    CRB didn’t really take off and they had Chris Robinson. But what do I know..?

    Right. I love them. I just don't believe the hype that they were going to be "huge".
    But now we'll never know since Casal is gone and he was the heart and soul of that band.

    I mean, they may have gotten to bigger clubs and occasional theaters. That’s pretty big for most bands.

    Free webcast tonite. This is a show fans were invited to vote on five songs (from a list of of 160) to be included in the sets tonight. I am hoping they announce the top vote-getters (I voted for The Eleven, King Solomon’s Marbles, Cats Under the Stars, Foolish Heart and Feel Like A Stranger).

    Do they do the simultaneous vocals like the GD or the Furthur arrangement?
