He’s got a great sense of life he does his family well and his people and there’s not a better vibe from a person than them, he is the man and I love you till the day I die I pray every day all day that he keeps his success going, and his family stays safe.

Jelly Roll will be in my city right around my birthday!!! Very nice!!! Denver CO native here. Big deal to play at Red Rocks. The sound is Incredible there its mind blowing!!! We used to just go hang out on the stage and get drunk or whatever, hs kids from several schools. Some kids would bring bongo drums and guitars up with and it was amazing to listen to people just make shift jam together for the night. The sound is different and I love it up there. HE WILL LOVE IT 💖 my nephews are stagehands also so hopefully they will hook him up while hes here. They would get along so well!

[@MEGATRON1069]

Id LOVE to be there but 120 lowest price ouch. i cant do that right now. I was going to be there if it was a better price however I do know that Red Rocks can be pricey. I wish I had my media pass this year or I got birthday presents from anyone because th8s would be perfect. Last concert for my birthday was Primus at 16 and yeah that I will always remember!!!

[@MEGATRON1069]

My degree is in Broadcasting, I had a radio show for a brief while and I was a booking agent plus have been associated with music my entire my life, trained ballerina etc. Its getting hard just to enjoy music anymore and Id die before Ill live without music. ( I played a few instruments at one time to bit no one needs to know about that) its always been a huge part of my life and alway will be!

This is the first Bootleg Kev podcast that I have ever seen, and I have to say that you have charisma and I look forward to watching more of your stuff. LOVE JELLY ROLL, even at my age. I'm old enough to be your mother, guys!! I will be 60 next month in fact. My kids are your age....but I feel that I have a young heart, as I totally dig music... Period, music of all genres. Could say I'm an eccentric eclectic Wiccan chick who just loves music for the sake of the art of the musicianship and lyrical artistry. Thanks to my boyfriend, these past 4 years have been a deep dive into hip-hop and country rap, and I'm loving every minute, every note, and every word. Thank you Mr. Kev for this podcast. Mr. Jelly Roll, thank you for your music and your complete honesty when you speak. You are truly a genuine and true blue dude who I just wanna give a big mama hug for the love you give to the world with each of your songs and for the work you are doing for the youth of this world. If you had advice to give a mother who has a son who has just recently been sent to prison, what would it be? He has been sent away on a bogus situation at a time when he was doing what he was supposed to and finally getting it and staying clean and sober, doing great for the first time in decades. He was arraigned by a judge who let his certification lapse and he filed a lawsuit against the court system that screwed him over and once it was filed, the corruption in Douglas County Oregon Court System, sent him away to silence him because of our financial situation. I am disabled and trying to make it on less than 1k a month, and cannot get him a high dollar civil rights attorney to fight for all the rights they have violated. It is your music, Mr. JellyRoll, Adam Calhoun, Ryan Upchurch and Tom MacDonald that keeps me out of depression, stokes the fire inside of me to keep fighting for my son's rights. Thank you for being a part of my life. Seeing one of your performances is on my bucket list and hoping that I am around long enough to see that happen.... Please come to Oregon, the Pacific North West needs your music. Oregon is a geographical oddity and new music trends tend to fly over the southern part of the state where I live and only hits Portland, then trickles down slowly. Wish we had a venue big enough to attract you, Adam, Ryan or Tom to perform here. That would be the ultimate and would make life worth the struggle. Be well Mr. Kev, and Mr. JellyRoll. Blessed Be.
