I'm in for last show June 9th, Newton Theater NJ.

Will be keeping up with setlists.  Anybody else going this tour? 😎

I wonder who is playing bass for them now. Their website band photo shows neither Berry Duane Oakley (kind of expected that) nor Tal Wilkenfield who I thought was their current bassist?

Here is the schedule.  I'm in El Paso and not only am I shut out (to be expected), they're completely bypassing Texas.  Nothing even in the biggies that bands often hit:  Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Austin.  Maybe next time.

@jack_frost Devon and Duane avoid talking about the situation with Berry Duane Oakley. And Oakley hasn't talked about it either as best as I can see on the web. 

It's a mystery and disappointing as I thought Oakley was a great fit and doing a fine job. 

Somebody got PO'd about something as Oakley isn't in anything Devon and Duane do currently. 

Tal declined I read as she had another commitment. She is a very good bass player.

@stephen Pedro was playing with Duane Betts and Palmetto Motel when I saw them last October, so he very well could be

As far as I can tell no Pedro. Not in any promo materials.  I've seen Pedro with Dickey's band and always had a great groove. Now I guess he's part of the "Motel".

@mulemewarren No a different bass player. Pedro finished the Duane Betts and Palmetto Motel shows and went home. 

Strangely the name of the new bass player isn't mentioned in anything concerning the new tour. Maybe Pedro will come back mid tour. That band was just perfect I thought with Oakley on bass. 

They have a new drummer too. Roy Orbison's son. Said they will miss their founding drummer who passed away earlier this year.

Article about the new drummer.

Happy to see many shows have sold out.

The band is building a following the old fashioned way by building word of mouth I think.

Hopefully they keep tix prices resonable as they gain popularity.

X2 - shows imo the strength of their 2 CDs & that even w/no BO/Tal, & now someone, Alex, to fill the large footprints of R. Scott Bryan

….that many people know about their live shows & are stoked-full for this tour
