Dickey's shows postponed, hope all is well @ The Betts Compound
I just got 50 e-mails from the webmaster of this site concerning changing my password. Could this be the work of the gay marine?
RIP Huey. One hell of a fine player!!!!! Peach.

Proof positive that the general public does not know good music,which is a good thing for us!
Just back from a show in Muscle Shoals...great place with a vibe all it's own. ya drive by Fame Studio and get that Duane feeling. Some wonderful folks up there.
Thanks for sharing lespaul013. Your video of Dickey, Danny and Brother Dave jamming has given me a tear in my eye and a warm feeling within my heart. Peach.

Dickey Betts... Often imitated but never duplicated!!!! Peach.
face it they are a VERY GOOD cover band, whether it be Van Morrison or Dickey Betts... they cover the tunes fairly well
The village idiot is back.... remember when they fired Dickey they were gonna phase out all of Dickey's and play just their own. We know how that goes.
welcome back Prine! We love you!
Moongrass girl, the Verona show was the only one I was not going to make but now you are coming, I have to come! Alright I hereby proclaim to make all the Dickey Betts & GS shows for this Aug tour, may my body have the strength to do it all! Help me Help Me! Later gators, Kimberly
Good Morning chickens! Hi Nic! Good to see you on the site and sending love your way! Yes, the Peach Fesitval at Montage Mtn is underway in Scranton, PA. However, I am looking forward to seeing my band DickeyBetts and Great Southern coming into the Northeast this week! Will be heading up to Foxborough, Mass for their show this Wed! Will be c.elebrating Mike Kach's birthday on the road and still remember one time Sari, Terri and I were down at The Moon Club in Tallahassee years ago and gave him a cake with his birthday greetings spelled out in peanuts and a bottle of Canadian Club in a paperbag...yes folks those were some damn good times! A picture of that nite on the bus has the clock at 3:15 am and we were still smiling! Damn Good Times! Heading over to the festival in a while so rockon and see y'all in a couple so days! Love, Kimberly
Hope to see some of you in Verona. 🙂
Thanks for that post Nic. I have yet to hear The ABB Dickey-less version of Blue Sky and I would probably feel the same as you Nic. It must seem weird for the newcomer who wonders why the ABB NEVER plays their most popular song during a show. I get bothered by them playing Jessica because as good as Warren and Derek are, neither one of them can reproduce Dickey's tone ! Yea Nic,I too must be old school!
Hey John. Glad you enjoyed it Brother!!!
I watched moogis this weekend as they live broadcast some of the Peach Festival. I really enjoyed Jaimoe's Jassz Band, Tedeshi Trucks band and Trigger Hippy. Last night the ABB played Blue Sky. I was really disappointed they choose to do that. I know they have played it before but to me it is a slap in the face to Dickey. I guess no tune is sacred to them. To bad.
The ABB played two solid sets with Derek really taking charge at times. I was reminded how much I miss Dickey in the set. Good shows but not the same for me. I'm to old school I guess.
It was great seeing my close Friends Dave Stoltz and Kris Jensen wailing on that stage. Jaimoe has a kick-ass band and I strongly encourage people to get out and see them if given the opportunity. Pam and I are hoping to go to Kure Beach NC on 13-14 Oct to see them if I can get my chemo schedule right. Most likely we will not make it but we are hoping it works out. 😎
You all take care and have a Goodtime Sunday. Beautiful Blue Sky morning here on lake erie. I am hoping to pull Soulshine today and wash her bottom!!! That should speed her up a little. Peach.
Hey Nic,
I checked my mailbox yesterday and got a very nice surprise !!
Thanks...:)
Thanks CanPeach and yes GABBA is always a blast. Hope to have some information on rooms in the next rew weeks...:)
We are jazzed about this years lineup...:)
And yes Capn'...Kettle of Fish is an awesome band. I wish Thorsen would give me a guitar lesson or three...:)
Hey Dan. Glad you like it. No, I don't have the video. Peach.
