Billy Strings Played So Long They Pulled The Plug

Billy Strings Played So Long They Pulled The Plug

Billy Strings did something you don’t see that often: he gave all.

Ask anyone older than you, everything is smaller and shorter and more expensive. There was a time you could get a candy bar bigger than your foot for a quarter. Now they’re a buck, on sale, and you get three bites, tops.

Billy Strings tried to reverse that trend last week in Redmond, Oregon, but was foiled.

The fresh new face of bluegrass who just released a 10-song live album of some choice cuts from his tour last year, was at the FairWell Festival when organizers pulled the plug on his set when he went over the allotted time.
