Joey Bonomossa wrote how he first saw Dickey Betts in concert at Coleman's in Rome. Does anybody else remember Coleman's?

It’s a miracle he lived as long as he did.

One of the greatest live recordings


You can draw a strait line from Dicky to Warren Haynes to Derek Trucks to Marcus King, the best acts of the last 30 years.

My uncle, who is closer to me in age than his brother, my father, told me a story about being on the lawn at SPAC and seeing Dickey hanging out in the crowd during the opening act. Many years ago.
