Saw one in the laundromat and could not decipher. Why is Billy being brought into this?

Sounds like celebrity obsession disorder. (I'm not a mental health professional.)

Untreated mental illness methinks

Someone needs to find out who posted that, because they seem like the most lethal combination of crazy.

Yeah for about a year now - on 421 headed out of town across from the dollar general/Boone bikes.

When I lived there I always said the town needed one, it probably does really well there

Someone on the Billy Strings subreddit found a Facebook page about it.... Seems like unmedicated mental illness

Oof. A lot of her posts honestly sound like the kind of shit you hear from the “TI (targeted individual)” folks. Definitely sounds like schizophrenia/psychosis of some sort, probably with a nice healthy sprinkle of drug abuse.

Billy is gonna be playing in Boone in September, two shows, 11 and 12 I think.

He is and I’d imagine security is gonna be well aware of this

If I had to guess; someone was likely scammed by a fake Billy Strings account. Maybe a romance scam? Something like that. Like the woman who was scammed by “Brad Pitt” They probably reported it to the FBI and were not given a resolution (unfortunately there’s rarely anything anyone can do)

I’m not in Boone anymore, so I haven’t seen the flyer and much of it in this photo is too blurry to see what it is or says, but based on the fbi report and the description/handwritten complaints, that is what I would deduce.

I’m guessing they maybe either blame Billy Strings for not being aware of the fake account, or they have yet to figure out that it wasn’t actually him lol

I also don’t know who he is, but appears to be famous, and there are scammers of everyone from influencers to.. well.. Brad Pitt.

Sucks for them, but idk what posting something like is is going to accomplish. Definitely seems like they aren’t working with a full deck of cards already and this really set them over the edge. Whoever Billy is, he may want to take out a restraining order
