1 song dickey should throw in the setlist

Most likely Dickeys set lists will be the typical ones he has played in the past, but name 1 rare song he should play
I would love to hear Try it one more time.

Nobody Knows.

Tombstone Eyes. And the other name it is known as.
Beautiful song.
Everything in Moderation. Including Moderation.

Bougainvillea

Any of these: Long time gone, rain (off of his highway call album), and seven turns.

Would love for Dickey to bring back the acoustic set in the middle of the show. I thought that was always cool when ABB did it in the 90's. I think it would give Dickey a nice break in between as well to have a seat and play.

Good Time Feelin', Just Another Love Song, Bouganvilla, Let Nature Sing.

They played it live all the time, it was just called Stormy Monday haha. You're right though that studio cut, Dickey was on fire.

I was just going to suggest that song and an acoustic set.

i used to love the acoustic sets the brothers used to do at the beacon.
but, people talked(shouted) through these sets...i still recall everyone on the floor deep in loud conversation while Gregg sang Oncoming Traffic....
so imo,Dickey shouldn't bother to play acoustic over the loud noise in the crowd.
i expect that they'll be the usual moaning and groaning by the usual moaners and groaners no matter what he plays.

nobody knows.....back where it all begins /// here's a song we wrote just for you!!!!

I always loved Maybe We Can Go Back to Yesterday, probably the only great song on Brothers of the Road. Hand Picked would be nice too

I know it is not Liz Reed in magnitude, dude..... BUT, I always found Desert Blues a catchy, well written tune. Topic is relevant, sadly, still today, so not just nostalgia.

Gregg & Chuck as well!

Not obscure and not a set closer; but the events of the year would make me want to see each show feature "Nobody Left To Run With Anymore"

Can't Get to Heaven on a Ten Dollar Bill! Possibly my favorite Allman Brothers track behind Whipping Post and Jessica!! 😛 ....I kid!!!

In all seriousness, an acoustic set would be tremendous (would have to be able to get the talkers to be quiet).
If he did some acoustic tunes, the original take on Let Me Ride that Dickey does with Dan in the hotel room scenes from the Brothers of Road DVD would be a nice edition. Would be a bit of a rarity.

Just Another Love Song
X2!

a sit in by jaimoe on drums and play JJ's alley.

Just dreaming, but a note-for-note reprisal of his OWO solo from EAP.....just one fan...
Dickey's solo on Searchin For A Rainbow is simply masterful -- maybe that could be dropped in somewhere along the way too -- but mainly, just his planning to be back out there is beyond awesome -- thank you bro -- for this yes, more-so for ALL your music

Too hard to choose just one.
Pony Boy
Just Another Love Song
Sweet Mama

As a nod to Gregg, the brief instrumental credited to them that appears on the Dreams box, would be a wonderful vehicle -- never played on stage, short one......
it, the mindbender improv at the end of Kind Of Bird, sections of Madness/West -- it'll all be a jam for the ages, just like it was the other night w/Devon, Berry, Duane & the rest in SF

The most blown away I ever was at a DB&GS show was when they did True Gravity. It was MAJESTIC!!

Great to see you around BDOB! Don't post much myself anymore...
Funny you mention True Gravity. I saw plenty of DBnGS shows but happened to be in a little creekside club in Hilton Head, SC; '08 maybe? Anyway...raging and having a ball in a pretty poorly attended show. So I was pretty much 5 feet away from Betts as I pleased... Anyway, I was pretty familiar with how the setlists shaped up...and that didn't matter. But this night...as I was literally feet away grooving, Dickey throws a curveball and they SMOKED True Gravity right in my face. I mean, barely think the riser was 2 ft. high. Betts' Gibson eye-level...and just CRANKED True Gravity, right in my dome, lol. I WILL NEVER forget that...it was incendiary (2008 was a better year of Great Southern). Was that the show you were at Dave?
