Statesboro Blues Dickey Betts & Great Southern Art Park 2007

[mrpoppacool]

they sound like an average garage band on this video or maybe it's just the low quality audio.

[seasharpdeflat]

What's the slide guitarist's name to Dickey's right? I see him on a lot of videos.

[1dillontaylor]

Just saw GS in NYC two weeks ago. He'll be dancin on all our graves.

In New York City, a place where Dickey Betts had had many great achievements, he played what will possibly become his last touring date on December 12, his 66th birthday.

"Im not retiring from playing. Im sure there will be some great special events that Ill be at in the future. But for now, I look forward to waking up tomorrow with nothing on my schedule."

After more than 40 years of constant touring its time for a well deserved break.

@newbliss3 I saw Mr. Betts many time and was never disappointed. My only regret I didn't see ya before 1970 I think my first show was in 74 or so.

A great advertisement for Gibson Les Pauls..

[johnbourbon]

yeah, i was like, 'wow, thats a lot of gibsons'.

dickie betts and the les paul jrs

[SkySimm]

Not a single Junior onstage here. They all look like Standards to me. I'm sitting here right now waiting for FedEx to deliver my 1969 Deluxe reissue! Whippin' Post will be the first song I play on it, then You Don't Love Me. Woo-Hoo!

[johnbourbon]

thinking back i think i was actually re-naming the band "dickie betts and the les paul juniors"...

i was probably drinking at the time.

[ValsHere]

[newbliss3]

Was out of town and missed it. Aggh!!!Saw walter trout ealier this year, and he is playing tonight.Should be great 2.

[RoufasthaSage]

In memory of elizabeth reed, might be my favorite song ever. I love the breaks and jazzy shit in it. Most other kids my age(20). Don't care to much for The Allman Bros; and or Jazz, funk. Earth wind and Fire are dope too.

[eoj115]

[mattgav23]

shutup mmcattle... and great video, although statesboro blues will never be the same without duane.

[mmcattle]

[Drumshanbohustle]

I don't excactly think of the blues as "redneck music"...but maybe that's just me.

[mmcattle]
