    My grandfather introduced me to Jimmie Rodgers' music.
    My father introduced me to the music of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Waylon Jennings.
    One day, I will introduce my son to the music of Sturgill Simpson.

      I came here because of Prine. I know Jimmie, Waylon and Hank: I worship Johnny, Prine was a Saint. Tying to move ahead, or at least catch up.

    I don't think I have ever seen any performance where there are so many obvious influences coming through in the performance. I know he is singing covers but singing a Nirvana song like he is George Jones. One minute I'm seeing Stevie Ray Vaughn and minute later it's Stevie Wonder, it's Neil Dimond then it's George Straight and Waylon Jennings then Otis Redding but in the end it's all Sturgill. Got to love it.

Tyler absolutely killed it, can't say a bad word about his performance. Sturgill I was less pumped on. As much as I love Sturgill, the Rock & Roll Sturgill is my least favorite variant. It was a good show, but there was a lot of jam banding business and it was SOOOOO loud, you could barely hear him.

      He did funk, soul and R&B (Original, not new school), I mean, he probably COULD rap. He just really doesn't have to. He can do it all, clearly. You said it, Superman, it's just intense to behold.
      Then after this he did the bluegrass album, which just completely kills. Then you hear him talk and he's just a real dude. Down to Earth, not at all pretentious. You only get one of these a generation, IF you're lucky, bless it.

    Sturg is the greatest guitarist that I've seen in person. Outstanding!

      Also saw SS shred good guitar on the first & only show with Tyler Childers in Birmingham, AL. However, Tyler stole the only “Sound & Fury” show pre-COVID-19
