You think random people online understand what this is more than the friends cheering and encouraging him in one of their homes, long before his success?
Yup. What’s funny is the guy in the back is his body double 😂 2 years ago the jokes about him were great. He is so mysterious. We need to know who this legend was 😂
Agreed, love the relaxed jam. I have seen him do this with other celebs now and bands but his best jam is all on his own here with his friends without a doubt.
His best time: best haircut, best clothes, best power of youth, best voice, such the best in and of him!!! Now he looks like the long haired son of Paul Teutul Senior or a part of the Kelly Family 😢 why he became old so fast? And why do the youngest and rustied nail in the backyard become so Mainstream? All his edges and fire drowning out... Go - shave, shower, haircut and back to your roots!!! The young Billy was a masterpiece send by the Lord but the devils Dollars washed it away.
Saw a video the other day of billy rolling a joint! Saw several of him smoking one! WHO GIVES A FLYING F...! Does that make him or willy or snoop all tough badasses! Woo hoo look at me i can smoke dope! Big fu..... deal!
Theo Von had Billy on his podcast and he explained this video. He explained that they were at a party, high on mushrooms, and ducked into the basement. The guy in back is called Barefoot Ben.
This isn't your video and your channel says videos of you playing guitar but you don't have any. Out of respect please remove this video it's already on RUclips by the guy who actually you know, filmed it
This is what God given talent looks like. And it's what hard work looks like. The young man obviously knows he's been given a gift and instead of squandering it, he worked hard to become in my opinion, a world-class musician.
Jared...you're a silly man...he spent his life dedicated to his craft...talent is imagination...its only hard work and dedication that develops SKILL and a MASTER of his CRAFT.
Outstanding job! I really appreciate you keeping the old mountain music alive, and updating it with modern topics instead of singing the same lyrics from years ago. FWIW, the guitarist's hairstyle and what I can see of his clothing is very familiar, like he just stepped out of the 50's and early 60's. You guys should play at the Carter family's annual event, you'd likely not get paid much if at all but you'd really gain interest for people who, unlike me, didn't stumble upon you on RUclips. Good luck, and good on you for keeping those old styles of music alive - without people like you, the younger generations would lose this part of our cultural heritage.
Oh, don’t you worry about Billy here… he’s doing all right with his music! Y’know, winning a Grammy in 2021, dropping a duet with Willie Nelson last week, little stuff like that. :)
Man I swear the gentleman standing up is an awesome musician I met while living on the Kentucky/Tennessee border. Played in a badass band named Bonepony.
I remember seeing his video years ago and I was like that man can do a HELL of a blue grass run. many can strum G C D and sing this song but not many can hit those runs like Billy. I think he must have went from from shredding electric guitars and went bluegrass or something that’s why he’s got gauge holes and does these runs like this.
If all you do is sit around strum gcd been here not a musician learning the guitar is an intricate talent you have to learn the scales what scales correspond with what note runs and so on and so forth but the best advice I can give someone is after you learn to play your favorite songs give each one of them your own spin because we already have too many of the same guitar player and this guy right here is a prime example as someone who has a style all their own
damn boi. i tell you what, i first saw this video i forget how long ago, and its been a good minute since i last watched it before today. but to this day i cannot watch it without playing it at least four times in a row because i get to a-tappin my foot and a-clappin my hands and a-sangin along... and this time imma send it to my dad.
In that setting he could easly look like hes in the old days..would make a great movie..a poor country boy trying to make it..the movie would be called strings...
After watching this for years, I enjoy the familiar sight of his supportive, barefoot, hobbit friend in this video.
EXACTLY BRO! Billy needs him just to sit in the back of all his shows 😂 Flip his hair every once in awhile. Slap his knee a few times😂
He's the Dude. Pretty sure he was holding the good stuff. Ya, would love to see Billy bring him back again.
hey there, Shaggy's just at a low point after having to pay Scooby Doo's extortionate vet bills. Give the guy a break.
The samwise to his frodo
He's the bearded dude in the newer videos.
This one is a gem
Crazy and now he plays in front of thousands.
Damnit boy!
Incredible sir. All the way around. Thanks for sharing!
The one dude in the world with an acoustic guitar at a party that you're not avoiding.
Lol
Some say George of the Jungle is still holding onto his bag strap in utter awe, to this day. Absolutely fabulous.
I'm dying xD The guy does look like him
I dunno who's this going out too ...I can't believe I thought I met his brother in Lismore
After hearing this, my guitar sold me in a yardsale.
He he he how many of us feel exactly this way?!😂
Hey man, this type of stuff is possible and I think that's pretty cool
His flatpicking is as crispy as that hair part.
So is his Travis picking,Fingerpicking,Chicken picking. He is amaz8ng
This is the best statement
Close
Lmfao..
Honest to God. One of the best performances known to man. Guys in the background have no idea what they're witnessing
I think they know exactly what they’re witnessing. Never forget the ones who supported your vision from the very start! That’s these guys
You think random people online understand what this is more than the friends cheering and encouraging him in one of their homes, long before his success?
this was the first song I heard Billy do about two years ago and have been a fan ever since!!
Same here
Same here.
Yup. What’s funny is the guy in the back is his body double 😂 2 years ago the jokes about him were great. He is so mysterious. We need to know who this legend was 😂
Why was it reposted? Any ideas?
@@peopleofpeople9347 for clicks.
Dude in the back definitely offers side quests 😂
We got a name ! The guy in the background is named Barefoot Ben. Heard Billy tell the story on Theo Von's podcast.
Long time bluegrass listener, no time meth user. This is amazing. Reminds me of college when we'd just get together and jam.
*NO TIME BLUEGRASS LISTENER ALL TIME METH USER HERE!!!* 😳
This guy is awesome just chilling at his house with his buddies and a guitar fucking amazing
I was laying here heart-broken and this song calmed me and put me to sleep... thank you sir! I don't know how or why but it did lol
Dude shreds! His cover of ‘Nothing to me’ is super dope 🔥
Blows my mind how great he is!! ✨ WOW!!
it's NPC Andy in the background for me
Theo Vons long lost son🤣🤣
Just checking back again he still hasn’t lite that cig yet lmao 😅😂😂😊
😂😂😂
Same shit. Every time I check back that cigarette must be stale by now.
This is awesome - his picking is so ferocious!!
Thanks to RUclips for introducing me to this guy tonight! AIC's "Nutshell" blew my mind. I'm an instant fanatic!
AIC is my all time fav. And in case you haven't heard this one from Billy: ruclips.net/video/V2RHZHHOq04/видео.html
Billy is such a talent
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thats Fucking Great !!!!!!
There will never be a better recording of this. It's not possible.
Agreed, love the relaxed jam. I have seen him do this with other celebs now and bands but his best jam is all on his own here with his friends without a doubt.
His best time: best haircut, best clothes, best power of youth, best voice, such the best in and of him!!!
Now he looks like the long haired son of Paul Teutul Senior or a part of the Kelly Family 😢 why he became old so fast? And why do the youngest and rustied nail in the backyard become so Mainstream? All his edges and fire drowning out...
Go - shave, shower, haircut
and back to your roots!!!
The young Billy was a masterpiece send by the Lord but the devils Dollars washed it away.
He’s close to Tony and Clarence as of now. Sky’s the limit. Fantastic flat picker.
I saw this clip years ago. So did all the Others that sought him out to play with him. What a fun observance!
Guy in the background looks like he’s about to give a side quest
1 Dislike.... and YES, i can see dislikes on PC
This looks like a scene out of a movie. Billy can rock the git fiddle oh boy!
Pure talent, lots of respect from Stockport, England ✌🏻
Saw a video the other day of billy rolling a joint! Saw several of him smoking one! WHO GIVES A FLYING F...! Does that make him or willy or snoop all tough badasses! Woo hoo look at me i can smoke dope! Big fu..... deal!

This man sold his soul how else do you explain this
Jared...you're a silly man...he spent his life dedicated to his craft...talent is imagination...its only hard work and dedication that develops SKILL and a MASTER of his CRAFT.
God-given gift? lol 🤦♂
No. He just *worked* really hard at becoming good at something. Damn simp.
He thinks like I did when I was 20. Which is, he doesn't think things through, just goes on feelings.
young man - u have God given alpha dog talent
In Uncle Ed Gentry's day it was moonshine in the fast cars he built, along with the hidden tanks...

this was filmed 8+ years ago
he's got a long hair vibe going now
Subtle lyric changes in the song from how its sung now have been made for the better. Go Billy!!
2:38s in is my favourite lick
Wow amazing talent picking that damn getar!
I'll take people you'll never hear on the radio or see on CMT for $500 Alex. Damn shame
Ya know, people keep riffing on the green shirt dude but if I was standing there right then, I'd have that shit-eatin' grin on my face too.
Oh fuck I'm high
Instant classic!
Dude in the back laughing, quickly realizes that this MF can play!
I feel like I watched this video years ago, it's only been 5 months? I don't believe it.
Fan for fuc@@@in life, GIFTED . Blew me away
Man I swear the gentleman standing up is an awesome musician I met while living on the Kentucky/Tennessee border. Played in a badass band named Bonepony.

Great song, excellent picking, have you really been to prison?
We just observed cro-magnon take the first steps in smoking history
OH YEA HES A GREAT PICKER!!!!! VERY GOOD!!!!!?

I remember seeing his video years ago and I was like that man can do a HELL of a blue grass run. many can strum G C D and sing this song but not many can hit those runs like Billy.
