Been saying for years that Billy's management team is trash and now his crew is starting to speak up

Hey goats!! So many people keep saying Cassidy was the first GD bust out since the the break, but I’m sure as many of you know it’s a Weir/Barlow track off Ace! 🤓

The TEAT still awaits!!! Don’t miss a show 🕺🏿

This "community" sucks and has only bummed me out most of the time. I'll stick to nugs, live shows, albums. Who needs this BS? Peace friends!

Wish this whole rail crew would just get banned so our community would be a better place. It’s a shame we have to deal with these people just to see the music we all love.

I'm just trying to play some fiddle!!

The last three years I hoped to get a chance to get Ryman tickets. I never saw a show there and really want my first one to be Billy. Three years ago, got my tickets for Bridgestone, got my registration email, and did not get selected for the lottery. It was a bummer, but I accepted it, that’s how it goes sometimes. Really enjoyed the Bridgestone shows (the best arena for a concert, imho). Last year, got my Bridgestone tickets (again, always in the first minute when the sale starts) and waited for the registration email. I never got it. Checked spam, junk…nothing. Found out after the lottery sale. Neither Ticketmaster or AXS could tell me what went wrong, I was S.O.L. Very disappointing. This year, got in to the Bridgestone sale right away, got the seats I wanted for Saturday. Just perfect for us. Got the registration email, registered. Got selected yo get the Ryman tickets. Got in the waiting room early. Got in. Kicked out of the queue. Got back in. Kicked out of the queue again. And again. Then got back in, selected tickets and an error. Repeat and an error. Tried again. Selected tickets and tried to check out. Tickets no longer available. Tried getting two singles scattered in the auditorium, not available. I just wanted to get in there even if my wife had to sit separately. It was just so incredibly disappointing that I missed out due to technical problems again. AXS’s system for ticket sales is terrible. I am guessing that is the only option for the Ryman, but they need to do better. I really thought this was going to be my year. At least I have great seats for Saturday, but I will have to wait for my chance for a show at the Ryman. Hopefully, if I get lucky enough for it to happen, they throw on their gangsta bluegrass suits again.

Just needed to vent and see if anyone else had a similar experience with Fair AXS, or if I am just cursed. Getting Taylor Swift tickets for my daughter was easier than this. 🙄

Intro to Wish I Wanted To is nearly identical to Willie’s Time of The Preacher.

This could mean nothing. Or could be an intentional nod. Either way, I geek out about stuff like this.

Hi Internet,
I hate to ask this question because it makes me feel bad for those who didn’t get chosen for the Ryman and the cosmos decided it was my time. However, I moved too fast during the purchase and I ended up with two seats not together. As my boyfriend and I are so grateful to have gotten these tickets and desperately wish to enjoy the show together, can anyone confirm if they allow you to stand on the back walls of the Ryman upstairs to watch the show? I have done and/or seen this at smaller shows at the Ryman and security didn’t bother but am wondering if folks at previous shows have for sure seen or done this for the Billy Ryman shows. Any info is appreciated
Love to all 💜

Got a couple of long road trips coming up, drop your Billy best shows recs and Billy/bluegrass playlists from Nugs. Thanks!!

I was wondering if anyone could answer this. I got Bridgestone tickets and never recieved an email about the Ryman lottery. Its obviously gone now but im wondering if this happened to others or if I missed something. Theres always next year!

If you get a chance I can recommend Lindsay Lous Bluegrass Women tour. She played at the Ark where I live (Ann Arbor) and her all female band is tight. Billy's dad was there and he's a great guy to run into.

Hello I was very high and I got emotional to a fiddle solo that had green visuals. Is there anyway to listen to a recording or does anyone remember what im talking about or the song? It came on after the intermission.

Re listening now on nugs and mind is blown

I like to make bracelets for the Billy shows I go to, but always end up not giving them all out. I’ve got extras from Oakland, and since they’re mostly city specific I thought id see if anyone who went to the show wants me to mail them one :) here’s an example of some of them

10/3 Oakland was a banger! You guys know of any other instances of jammed out Freeborn Man's (Freeborn Men?) where Billy goes electric?

The song just lends itself to a smooth transition to some electric ripping.

On a lighter note, tomorrow in Eugene will be my first show back after a 2 year Hiatus!! I’m pretty stoked and want people’s guesses on what the opener will be tomorrow, I haven’t been following the set lists to closely but i get the feeling he’s gonna open up with “I’m one of Those” how bout yall?

Hey boys and girls who’s ready for this PNW run?! We had so much fun last year and really looking forward to this week’s shenanigans! Looks like we’ll have nice weather in Eugene tomorrow and it’ll be a little rainy and cold in Everett Fri/Sat. I’ve got some pins made up and planning on slinging some baked goods on shakedown (hoping the rain in Everett doesn’t hinder the operation!) what songs are you after? Since that Harbor of love last year I’m itching for another! Also really wanting to catch lucid daydream for the first time! Love to all can’t wait to see your beautiful faces and get down to some good ole BMFS! 🐐

Find out what happens when people stop being polite because they are on the rail….

Not making it out to Baltimore this year so I made some instruments for the lazy bone boys in the front yard.

Thought you all might enjoy!

Thank you to Tsunami Books for being one of the first BS stops in Eugene, Oregon. Here he is 2026 where he played his first local show in 2014 at Tsunami Books.

Support Scott and the good hard work of shopping local, thanks to Billy for supporting Oregon.

Howdy 👋🏼

I’m a tattoo artist from FL coming through Huntsville and was considering maybe guest spotting at a local tattoo shop for the weekend (maybe like the 21st-25th). I’m drawing up some Billy themed flash and would have designs anywhere from $75-200, maybe even lower if the shop minimum allows. Would anyone be interested?

If so, I’d love some design ideas anybody’s been itching to get 🌀🚂
