    anyone else just become bluegrass fans in the last 3 hours? lmao. Not only that, no matter what kind of music you prefer - you can still appreciate how fucking talented each and every one of these band members are. Reaching master status at your craft before 50 is a feat in its own lol. Anyway, just want to express my gratitude for the amount of talent i keep witnessing.

    Hats off to the production people. These guys played their butts off in sweltering heat. Sound quality and camera work was great for a live outdoor performance. Thank you for this gem of a video.

    Billy has brought me back to string music. Honestly he's brought me back to music all together. Looking forward to him becoming a LEGEND that generations will speak about. I know this with 100% certainty as his sound and pure talent blow other LEGENDS out of the water.

    Been watching a lot of Strings' performances lately, and I think ROMP 2018 is probably my favorite show I've seen on RUclips. Maybe if I saw him live, I'd have a different opinion. But I love this one specifically
