Hello to all, wishing the band and crew safe travel!
RIP to Slim Whitman. A classic crooner with a Western Swing vibe!
I shall post my thoughts. I just have to pray that a typhoon doesn't come on the 28th and ground my plane 🙁 . The Osaka Billboard is bigger than the Tokyo one, I think it seats around 500 people and there are only a few seats left in the service area for each show. The Tokyo shows look to be selling well too.
Here is an English link to the Tokyo Billboard

I will be up in the service area for both Friday shows, so if anyone is going please look for me. I will be wearing either a Grinderswitch or an Eat a Peach 1973 summer tour t-shirt.
looking forward to your impressions of the shows, mtbjp.
Hi Rainy!
Sure hope you will make it to the show. I am sitting in Section 101, RowG.

I haven't posted here for many years but I have always been DB fan! I live in Japan and I will be flying up to Tokyo on the 28th to go to the 2 shows that night. (each set is classed as a separate show here so you have to pay twice). DB&GS are also playing an additional show on 30th that was announced later. Sadly for me it was announced after I had booked my airfares and I couldn't change my tickets.
A few years ago I was up in Tokyo and my mate arranged for his mate's Allman Brothers cover band to play for me. They were great and it was a great night. I think the ABB were pretty big here back in the day and most CD shops have there albums.

Coffee time and walk through the garden.. Beyond the beaten Path.
It has rained so much this spring season.. everything is water logged.. we need days now of steady sun here on L.I
Hope everyone is well.
Mitch and Leah I read that you are going to Paramount for DBGS. I haven't gotten my ticket yet, let me know where you are sitting OK..
Happy days to all of us.

The ABB played in Japan in the early 1990s, mayb the same connection then as now...
But yes, Felix Pappalardi, one of my favorite all time musicians -- he did a couple of solo albums with Japanese musicians...
what about the album Go too, w/Steve Winwood & Michael Shrieve playing w/a Japanese rock musician (forgotten his name)
I have Kitaro's Oasis album too -- Kitaro is a Japanese new-ager
This short Japanese tour is kind of interesting. I've seen a few Youtube videos of some Japanese bands playing the ABB tunes, and they are really quite fascinating in how good they are. Wonder what brought Dickey to Japan? Vacation and/or demand?
Enjoy Rick...
having some organic shade grown mexican this morning to start the day...
Sunday Morning, and coffee...yum
...maybe Aug. 3, Dan/Rajo?
will be nice to party in Chicago...with Dickey Betts & Great Southern.
Hamburg,Ger,is a partner city of Chicago.This town and its suburbs are a nice place to live,too.
Have a great weekend y´all!
Just spent 3 days in Chicago and all I can say is what a friendly town! We will go back there again!
Hey Bird!
Thats great! Love an old trunk...you should post a picture.
Take Care..
Rick
Got a deal (steal) on an 1890 Steamer Trunk and after mending the top, it is perfect for two rows of vinyl, maybe 70 a row or so, perfect. So classic Allmans and Dickey are now showcased to the front of row one. I think this is proper and respectful way to store Duane and Dickey.
so check yer local ad sales.... 300-600 value for 75......
Hey Brothers & Sisters :waving: Just checking in. Enjoying living in the Blue Ridge Mtn. foothills. Got lots of unpacking to do...Take care. Peace & Love to all.
