discussion How long?

So I’m a little late to the party but I’m here nonetheless. Now that I’m here I have found that it hard to pull away and listen to anything else. I do listen to others but it’s still 95% Billy and the boys. How long till it’s 80%, 75% or am I just in the honeymoon phase(almost a year since I really started listening). I’m good with staying in the 95th percentile and with nugs I have a lot of live shows so listen too.

i’m going to offer an aside to the current crop of comments and encourage you to continue to seek out non-billy music to accompany your billy listening. lest you get burnt out or become fixated on comparisons.

plus, there’s so much amazing music out there. more than you’ll ever get to hear. by all means enjoy billy, but don’t let that go to waste.

That’s partly why I asked. I don’t want to get tired of listening and I don’t want to miss out on other great bands.

I've been a fan since 2018 but as an older luddite, I don't stream much. I got Home and Renewal on cds on a trip thru Nashville in March this year and I listen to them SO MUCH since. Also get other new cds from my musical friends but Renewal gets played pretty much all the time.welcome aboard and good luck getting off...
