F yeah brother he jams out to some great tunes I heard him playing nirvana today can’t wait till the two shows in Chicago shouts be my 10th time seeing him i can’t get enough virtuouso

[@ryanmilligan9421]

This guy can play my brother. Such a delight

[@golfingfool777]

Billy's covers are always so great! He makes the songs his own, while still sincerely respecting the original.

[@stargazer6753]

Yes indeed. That’s the way it should be.

[@WoodsWanders33]

Grateful and honored to have heard it live. I’ll keep chasing Billy and hope he plays it some more. 🌈🐐☮️❤️

[@spencertherren6806]

Not an easy song to cover. They nailed it. As per usual.✌️

[@stargazer6753]

Jackson Browne.

[@rebuttalc2075]

Sounded like a daytripper intro jam

[@Dloomis494]

Indeed. A nod to the Portland GD Daytripper perhaps.

[@BillyFanNJ]

Definitely a Day Tripper intro and a Mr. Hendrix outro with a hint of Jessica in that last solo. So freaking cool......

[@wwaldo2525]

He’s always dropping little nuggets

[@nadionmediagroup]

Sure was.

[@dedorsey1106]

Definitely day tripper and Hendrix at end but what song????

[@WeberSharpening]

Truly amazing what he can do with and acoustic guitar.

[@123Shel12]

A great cover! Very nicely done! Billy and his band just keep on getting better and better! What can't they do?

[@papamurphy8737]

A drum solo

[@charwest5892]

give them all a flute and see what happens

[@stargazer6753]

@@charwest5892 Interesting , but not Bluegrass. In Bluegrass it’s only strings , as in Billy Strings.

[@lisareichard5791]

Loving the bluegrass sound on one of my favorite songs! 🎸

[@stargazer6753]

Yes indeed , my friend. Just loving it all. It’s Jackson Browne you know. One of our greatest lyricists . One of his best.

[@kvfkvf6900]

This is the best Billy song i have ever heard ! 🐐

[@spencertherren6806]

Jackson Browne, but yes.✌️

[@kvfkvf6900]

@@spencertherren6806 yes it's a cover. It's the best song I've ever heard him play. Or maybe love come rolling down from the same sho 🙄

[@philharrisson7738]

Wonderful !

[@katherineannwebb5216]

Thank You🤘❣️ This is on my 46th birthday, I spent it with my kids, in Norman Oklahoma seeing Mike Hosty Solo Show @ The Deli. This is on my bucket list though, BMFS 7/23/24🤘❣️

[@reveland82]

I'm really impressed , great stuff

[@moo-8215]

todo un descubrimiento, congratuleis..................

[@alanvonweltin6820]

Love the little Hendrix hat tip outro - very sweet

[@hkguitar1984]

What a treat, thank you for posting this.

[@dansheehan4031]

Smokin! I can't put my finger on the jam at the very end. So familiar but escapes my mind.

[@DanteXL115]

@dansheehan4031 It's a nod to Third Stone From The Sun by Jimi Hendrix

[@KSpirit54]

Someone mentioned Day Tripper

[@dansheehan4031]

Thank you!@@DanteXL115

[@danielmorris3687]

Personally I think it's part of 'Mountain Jam' by Allman Brothers Band. He did a bit of 'Jessica' by them just before going into it.

[@BillyFanNJ]

​@danielmorris3687 Per Billy Base Day Tripper" The Beatles tease "Third Stone From The Sun" Jimi Hendrix tease "Jessica" Allman Brothers Band tease

[@sylviasintas-qq2zw]

Lovevthis!

[@AustinPierce7526]

A little Hendrix at the end!

[@aguyandaguitar3366]

Maybe they were just coming out of it, but I like the way he slipped Day Tripper into the intro

[@654Tennis]

Thanks for sharing, this is really high quality! I would love to see him perform this live!

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

Glad you enjoyed!

My friends were standing right next to you the first night

[@doa42375]

Damn

[@mnhooks]

The older I get the more this song makes sense. #midlifecrisis

[@Joda_i_am]

Did they start the song with a Beatles wrif and move into 'running on empty'? They are so darn good at covers

[@janicejohnson6438]

Yes, they did!

[@zleffler17]

allman bros tease towards the end too

[@geraldking4080]

Born to it, not made.

[@KimiWallrus]

That's Dwayne Allman on the OG recording aint it?

[@ml.9746]

Jackson Brown… I believe

[@MandaW-y2u]

​@@ml.9746 you are correct.

[@zanejohnson3529]

What is the key of this version?

[@terrymckenzie8786]

Billy.your putting on weight, and to much hair. Take care of your health, as we need you for another 50 years, 😊

[@wwaldo2525]

Good news is he quit drinking and hard drugs years ago. Just weed and mushrooms 🍄 He’s actually looking healthy

[@golfingfool777]

Smoking all that weed and getting those munchies will definitely put a few extra pounds on ya'. However, other than his little spare tire, I would say Billy looks pretty healthy.

[@MandaW-y2u]

❤

[@jsmoker10]

The intro sounded like mix of “going down the road feeling bad” and “daytripper”…or am I hearing shit? 🤔 Love Billy’s cover of this song though, prob my favorite🤟
