Okay, I did my ABB-good deed for the day last night. I was waiting for the campus shuttle to take me to the parking lot when I notice this kid (you know you're getting old when you refer to college students as kids) trying to casually read my hat. I tell him, "It says The Allman Brothers Band". "Really? I'm a fan" he says. Well, immediately, I'm off and running, talking his ear off about the ABB. I tell him I'm going to NY this weekend to see Dickey Betts. He looks at me with a blank stare. "He sang Ramblin' Man" I tell him. "Oh, him", he says. Then he asks me if any of the original members are still in the band. So I give him an abbreviated history and tell him to check the website here. Then I gave him my business card and implore him to email me so I can get his address to send him some shows. I'm not sure which one of us was more excited.
