When I heard the news of Dickey Betts' passing yesterday, I was physically sick at my stomach. Another huge part of my youth is gone. I grew up on the Allman Brothers Band and followed Dickey's career extensively. The song "Jessica" is why I named my youngest daughter by that name. Words can't describe how much he'll be missed by so many of us. Thank you for the years of some of the greatest music ever written, Dickey. I know Duane, Gregg, Butch, and Barry met you with arms wide open.

"You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day". Thank you for all your years of soulful southern rock and jamming with ABB that moved us all to tears. May you have nothing but blue skies from now on. So much love. <3

Any love for Jack Pearson (in the overalls) that man LOVED Duane so much he ended up in the Allmans. What a dream come true.
-
This is even cooler when you find out the show was dedicated to Jerry Garcia Bc it was the day he passed and they opened with the Franklins Tower riff to pay homage to him.

Dude lived in the enormous shadow of Duane Allman. He did a masterful job of perfecting his amazing guitar and songwriting gifts. What a gift and a treasure.
