Jaimoe Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 From a recent interview: " Jerry would kind of laugh at me... Even though we were just about the same age, they got started playing about eight years before we did. So, hell, I was studying those guys - what they were doin’ - before I ever made a record. So even though we were the same age, I was kinda of tippin’ my hat to Jerry all the time and he’d get a kick out of that. [He’d say,] “You know, you guys caught up.” (laughs) We’d talk about our different... the way we went about playin’ the guitar and things like that a lot. I can't remember ever seeing Jerry and talkin’ with him that he didn’t have a guitar in his hands. When I think of talking to Jerry backstage, it was always while he was playin’, then he’d stop for a minute and talk, then he’d start playin’, talk... you know, that’s just the way he was. That’s the way I remember him anyway ". -- Dickey Betts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodyBanks Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 I'd put $100 down that says Dickey gets back with ABB before Phish reunites to suck more cash from the masses? Hey Lionlocks you feel like placing some bets on Betts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
