Dickey’s music is alive and well!
Warren has changed bands for his Ashes and Dust tour enlisting Jeff Sipe of the Aquarium Rescue Unit on drums as well as Americana trio ChessBoxer. The Nashville-based ChessBoxer includes Matt Menefee on banjo, Ross Holmes on violin and Royal Masat on upright bass.
I listened to the first show (below) of this band configuration. Jeez Louise. The Blue Sky was just beautiful.
Throughout the ChessBoxer boys show their mastery. During the intros Warren says Matt Menefee does things with a banjo you shouldn’t be able to do with a banjo. The violin player shines all through the show but really shines on Jessica. You have never heard the Dickey Betts instrumental masterpiece played like this and I’d love to hear Dickey’s opinion. The violinist sounds like Warren on slide.

Beautiful Rajo, great news about your new guitar!!!
Two wings and a voice to ring so let that songbird sing

Well...lately I went to my local music store. Strings and stuff...when I was about to pay the man put a box on the counter and there she was ! A traditional six string,made in America,full solid. Just had no choice... Not too loud, better for the neighbors. It was a real good deal !
Duane has his daddy's hand and playing in a band that is fluid and peaceful!!! Beautiful music!!! It's still raining and blowing but it's like a hollow in woods!!!
People are piling into the parking lot!!! We just heard things happen, Dawes band. David letterman!!! Sounded excellent!!!
We are in Raleigh at my wife's place we call the treehouse waiting for this northeaster to quit and the sun to come out for the Dawes band with member Duane betts at the museum of art!!! We're cooking deer bites and pickled fresh shrimp and watching the takin time video on the big screen!!! Thankful to be alive!!!
So nice to see some of them trusted folks again.
Skydog - rip it up at your gig!!! I'm still looking for a new band, no luck so far, but it'll happen when it's supposed to happen.
RIP Yogi Berra. I saw him play a lot and he was great!
So happy to see SPDB posting..
I think the best thing for a broken heart is music >> any kind of music >>>
Play it loud and proud Lowell and Forrest will be listening , smiling tapping his foot and getting in his OLD mans groove .. Alittle Blue Sky with a whole lotta feeling for sure..

Thank You Forrest and his dad for helping him become the man he was..
