My buddy and I went to the Dickey Betts show at the Cleveland House of Blues last night. We went down early to grab some food, drinks and check out the opening act. I have been a huge fan of the Allman Brothers for a long time and have seen the current lineup on numerous occassions. I unfortunately hadn't had a chance to see Dickey before.
What an amazing show!!! He played for almost three and a half hours with only a short intermission between the two sets. The man still has it together and the band is extremely tight. Both his son Duane Betts, and Andy Aledort were also playing guitar. All three were using Marshall Plexis and 4x12 cabs loaded with JBLs. They played a bunch of Allman brothers tunes and some of his own material.
I highly recommend checking out Dickey if he is playing in a town near you.
