was Betts with them?
I saw them many times....usually extrememly loaded...whew
one night in Mobile at the stadium in 1974...summer....all the southern bands were there but they were last....we all just laid out on the field and watched the nite sky and listened as they jammed away...all of us too stoned, drunk, wasted whatever to do much more after 8 hours in the August afternoon and evening.
in fall of 78, I saw a surpirse show by them at the Oar House bar on Anna Maria key near Bradenton FL...on the beach...
Greg got arrested for brawling with the cops drunk....
I’m friends with Bett’s rythym guitarist with his road band though Carlos may be touring with Molly Hatchet too..
Betts was there when I saw them (in 1990), but he’s not touring with them this time. ...at least that’s what I heard from a buddy who just saw them last Tuesday at the Greek (in L.A.).
I completely forgot about the Carter thing. Just blocked it out, I guess.
Warren Haynes - hardest working man in the business. Been saying it for years. He played with Phil Lesh's band and the Allman's and Gov't Mule ALL AT THE SAME TIME. I have no idea how he balances the work load - I just know he rocks.
The 40th tour ought to be a good show. Haynes and Trucks are amazing and Susan Tedici usually sings a couple of great songs.
Hey wardaddy - I bet you had Gregg's back brawlin with the boys
