YMSB: 1000 SHOWS

lets hear it for the Yonder boys !

I've been to 30 or so of those shows.saw them last week at wakarusa & will see them at Telluride a few times next week.these guys just know how to pick & sing & have a great time doin it

my favorite place to see them is Hornings Hideout...under the stars in the oregon woods...lookin forward to this years String Summit

Well done. We'll see you as part of my bachelor party in Providence. Here's to summer!

YMSB - Keep playing as loud and fast as you can...

I love me some YMSB

way to go yonder. congrats on 1000 shows. now those are outta the way, you play some in the north east.

good job!!! congratulations!!!

I saw these guys at High Sierra the last year it was in Bear Valley. They were invited to play by Vince Herman and they tore it up on the side stage. So cool to have been there for their big breakout and now see them so successful. What a dream it must be to start at the dive Pioneer Inn and now be headling Red Rocks! Keep up the great work guys!

Keep On Going YMSB!! Can't wait to see you play with Fishman at Red Rocks!

they are awesome as long as Dave isn't wasted. its really hit or miss with his banjo playing. the rest of the guys are always on fire, especially Adam. Always a fun show regarless

I hope the next 1000 will be just as h3tty!

i saw 5 of the CA shows and everyone of them was FANTASTIC! How about they move to San Fran and play weekly gigs at the fillmore?

Saw em at Wakakrusa and many times before that. The banjo player needs to go. Love the rest of them though.

Congrats boys! can't wait for the red rocks shows. If you are in the denver area and like Yonder and Leftover then come check out Big Smith at Quixotes this saturday night. 5 cousins who throw down.

HORNINGS'S HIDE'EM OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YONDER-iffic!!!!!! seeing 'em 3 times this summer. Congrats to the Yoys. These guys are truly amazing & I can't wait for the next 1000!!!! I feel so blessed everytime I am able to see them.

KINFOLKIN' A

you would think that after a thousand shows and all the mandolin players they've picked with, that jeff austin would have evolved a little more on the ol mando. not trying to be a dick but sreiously. listen to any show where any mando player sits in and you'll here him getting smoked. anyway, as a band I DO really think they have evolved very much. oh and ben kauffman writes some seriously solid tunes. good luck with the next 1000 shows and congrats to them.

dave johnston doesnt need to go monkeygrass

cheers y'all

One of my favorite bands to see live for sure. They just put that extra something in my step!

Diggems. Right on! Two dates in the Northeast sharin the stage with Umphs' McGee! SICK!

I came to Colorado in 2000 and saw these guys at Salmofest at Planet Bluegrass...I was imediately hooked and have seen them probably 50 times since then. These guys are a big part of why I fell in love with the area and the music scene here...Thanks Guys, and "Keep On Goin'"

Congrads!!!! see you on Jam Cruise

cant wait til the next show!

Rufus of course he is gonna let a sit in guest playn the mandolin to tear it up. Almost everyone that lets anyone sit in with them lets them tear it up its just how it is.

kaiserbun - you must have been at la Zona in Austin. Agreed he was wasted and has been hit or miss. I didn't want to bash em in my first comment since the are the reason why I am learning the banjo. As for Jeff He has only been playing the mandolin basically since this band was formed, and I am sure in 5 years from now he will be amazing and very hard to keep up with. in the meantime YMSB F-in rocks! WWW.HAPPYHUSK.COM , get your organic papers and support a fellow phan.

I will be in Des Moines on Friday to witness this show it is going to be amazing, plus the Simon Estes is a sweet venue. Then on Saturday they play the Zoo in Minneapolis which will also be a sick show, I went last year and it was amazing. Im excited that they are playing their 1000th show in Iowa!!

hopefully thousands of more to come from an excellent band! -- looking forward to seeing ymsb again this summer

Yonder is always a fun time and Jeff Austin is the shit

yonder is the shit. for a group of guys who grew up never listening to bluegrass, they sure as hell know how to pick!

They chose Iowa over WI, and Chi town for there 1000th show. For Obvious reasons. We love you and That show was the best show i've seen at Simon Estes. And I've Seen a lot of shows there. OH And I've noticed at waka you guys are getting into the older stuff. But then you played polka on the banjo! Holy shit. Man i spun so many circles that night. Damn. And you know we fuckin rocked your socks off! much love and nothin but!!! ~Nealy

Hee Hee. So good to hear you (Jeff) be able to talk about naked guy... I was there! It was weird but you guys kept rockin it. Thanks for the interview Jambase. YMSB is my fav! See you at HSMF....

What kinda moron would say that Jeff Austin hasn't evolved on the mando???? What a joke he has vastly improved, more so that anyone in the band probaly due to the fact that the rest of them had way more experience at their insturment than him when they started but none the less that kid should be smacked like a little bitch for saying that! Anyways congrats to Yonder, hopefully 9 years from now they wil be celebrating 2,000 and all you haters will have moved on and be listening to soft rock by then, morons!

I love Yonder!

Yeah Yonder!!!! You guys are great, let's get to 2,000 baby! Rocked the garden at Bell's! Yeah Kzoo!!!

I would just like to pay homage to the wonderful force that is yonder mountain string band. I just saw them last night in Columbus Ohio and it was by far one of the best concerts I have ever experienced. The night was beautiful and so was the vibe. I would just love to congratulate yonder on thier success and thank them for being the amazing musical force that they are. Keep up the great work guys, Columbus loves the hell out of you.
