First heard Doc sing ’Am I Born to Die’’ in 78 at Gerties in greenwich village He was there with Merle and T Michael Coleman and he also sang it as the first encore on along night of fst picking.. To hear Billy own in the same way 44 years later was as if to die and go to heaven for 15 minutes.... My heart flies today. With Doc and Billy the soul brothers of flat picking.

I was right there. I had walked down to get water after the second set. I was there at the left side of the stage as he returned to encore. Security let me step in closer. I was about 30 feet away as he sang, without no one else around. I had tears in my eyes. You could feel the vibration and witness the silence at that moment at Red Rocks.

“Fathers, do not let your sons forget Do not let your sons forget where their essence was just formed, when their bodies were most vulnerable, they were protected by the womb of a woman. If they ever call all women weak, remind them of the strength of their mother who pulled her whole body apart to give theirs a home.” ― Nikita Gill
