Sounds good Capn:cool:
MY FIRST SUGGESTION, and it is ONLY a suggestion....
Let's all try to erase the bad memories of what has happened in the past...
Let's start FRESH and look forward to a LONG and Funfilled Family of LOVE and MUSIC
Remember it was 44 years ago this weekend that WOODSTOCK took place
PEACE, LOVE and MUSIC... and Nothing but MUSIC, LOVE and PEACE !!! Let's have fun, but not at the expense of others... fair enuff ?
Just so you all know... I have been given Moderator status... NOT ADMINISTRATOR... which is fine with me.... I am willing to do whatever I can, and I can delete bad posts only... I have no other powers re: updating other aspects ( dates, cancellations, etc ) I will try to stay up to date on the GB and I also encourage you all to use FORUM for chats re specific subjects... remember the guest book is meant to be a quick check in and the forum is meant for lengthy conversations regarding specific topics, pics, suggestions, complaints... YES COMPLAINTS ARE WELCOME... remember the Boat and GARAGE ???
What this site needed was moderators for the guest book, due to "instant" posting and one individual creating havoc here.
Good choice of people for the job:clapping:
Awhile back I spent many a day cleaning up the scourge of spam posts in the forum...the spammers seem to have moved on to another place in cyber space...good riddance:cool:
Its too bad that the guest book needs daily monitoring, but since it does, it will be in good hands.
Here's wishing Dickey good health and I'm hoping to catch at least one show this year.
If Dickey ever comes back to Buffalo, a great venue would be the Town Ballroom, saw the Mickey Hart band there this week. Great show and a perfect venue for the band:guitar::guitarist:
Good Ol Sunday Morning Bells Are Ringing Everywhere...
I am honored to assist in anyway I can to keep this valuable website FUN and Informative... I promise to do the best job I possibly can... no undue censorship, while also logging on frequently to make certain anything cruel and offensive is addressed in a fair and timely fashion.
Feel free to PM me with suggestions and/or details RE: your experiences... (emails, PMs, Threats, etc. )
People can you feel it?
Bring Jim King back...EAPFP
I'm grateful for the periodic weeding of Prine posts, and miss having Jim King here.
yep, Peach its a new chapter for this Site and a new perspective. Thank you.
I agree with you Rick about Jim King. He was just pushed to far by a person who showed no respect for ANYONE,including Dickey. Prines attack on Liz was in my opinion one of the meanest things I have ever witnessed here and I have been here since the beginning. Jim came to her defense many times and he should not be banned.Meanwhile Prine continues to badmouth Dickey and most of the regulars here and he gets to stay by merely changing his name mutiple times? Somethings not right here and I hope this shake down fixes that. I hate ranting but I'm a little upset with this whole mess not to mention this weekends cancellation of my only shot to see Dickey in over 3 years. Anyways I wish Dickey a speedy recovery and would love to see him visit Santa Fe as there is a very nice venue downtown called the Lensic thats calling his name!
Good 'ol Sunday mornin' folks! It's like a breath of fresh air in here! :wave:
Thank you Adam for nominating Cap'n, Dan, and Bird72 to help out with the site! I could not think of three better folks to do this! Thank you guys for stepping up and taking care of this place!
I have mostly been in lurk mode for a while due to all the nonsense that was occurring here. I am happy Dickey is getting his home back.
Have a great rest of the weekend folks and let your SoulShine! 😉
:koolaid:
....Knowing a solution would finally be realized, one that makes sense.
I have not only offered to be a moderator, I am asking this Site to allow Jim King to return. Jim is a good man, with honor in his soul. He got rowdy and out of control re Prine, nevertheless when you look at the big picture of ALL of the unbelieveable posts and actions and general mayhem, it would cause any reasonable man to bow his back.
Given the solution will fix the problem, I say the problem gone, Jim will not have to defend the honor of his dear friends, therefore he should be allowed to return.
Rick
:clapping::beer: Excellent choices for moderators Adam, thank you. Give 'um hell guys!! Finally, I'm hopeful that things will be a little more peaceful on here.
I'm down with the Indiana idea brother Tyler, so sign me up :guitarist:.
Hope everyone has a good ol' Sunday.
Good Old Sunday Morning :sunny: ,
I 'd like to Thank Adam for getting a hold back on the Guest Book :clapping: . Also for the invite to help with it, but I think to many trying to do a good job can get "crowded" in the kitchen. Love that we have Brothers and Sisters helping to preserve Dickey Betts fan site. I am positive a great job will be done by all who moderate...A Big Thank You to all involved.
I'd just like to give my humble opinion regarding reviews of shows and just the overall opinions in general. We all need to be tolerate of anyone's opinion regarding concert , shows etc.. However there is a line where it can be abusive , disruptive, mean spirited towards the artist and band and even just to personal.. that has a tendency to reach over at the fans as well.
I think having opinions is healthy whether positive or negative. We need a healthy balance of both but always respectful for it all to be worthy of.
Thanks to Kirk for showing the way.
Ok lets have some fun and listen to DBGS.. it's what it is good for your soul ..
:dog: :angel: :inlove: :angel:
Morning all ..thinking of all that have passed away this past year. It's going to be a great "Blue Sky" Sunday morning!
Ok... from Macon Georgia...Capricorn recording artists...The Allman Brothers Band !

It was great news Duane Betts posted about Dickey working on a new LP over the winter.
We all know that Dickey writes and he must have some real nice stuff over the last years that's ready to go.
It's a good time for something new and if anyone has any news or updates on the new Lp, please post and keep us updated. Thanks again~

Hi everyone,
Just as an update to my post earlier today, I have added a few moderators to the Guest Book to help keep things clean and positive. They were all chosen based on a combination of having reached out to me, posting history, etc... Please welcome Dan, Capn, and Bird72 as our new moderators!! If anyone else would potentially be interested, please let me know via PM. No promises, but it never hurts to have options... 😀
