Thanks for sharing your story about Duane. You can probably get a copy of the book pretty cheaply on Amazon now. I highly recommend it! Thanks for stopping by :) Hey Mark!

I lived in Nashville from '74 to '82, and actually live a couple blocks from Duane's and Gregg's grandmother - Myrtle Allman. At the time, she was actually listed in the phone book. I often thought about calling her just to let her know that her grandsons had really been a big influence in my life, but didn't want to impose, ya know? Not sure if you're aware, but one of Duane's and Gregg's haunts during the mid-60's was a 'joint' known as 'The Briarpatch' at the corner of 6th Ave. South & Lafayette. When I lived there it had become a strip joint called 'The Patch'. I went there once just so I could say I'd been in a place where the 'Allman Joys' had played, lol. Guess I really need to go ahead and get the book.... It's been on 'my list' for a while, but I tend to procrastinate.... Best regards, Mark G. Newbury, New Hampshire Hey Josh,

Not sure if you’re aware, but one of Duane’s and Gregg’s haunts during the mid-60′s was a ‘joint’ known as ‘The Briarpatch’ at the corner of 6th Ave. South & Lafayette. When I lived there it had become a strip joint called ‘The Patch’. I went there once just so I could say I’d been in a place where the ‘Allman Joys’ had played, lol.

Guess I really need to go ahead and get the book…. It’s been on ‘my list’ for a while, but I tend to procrastinate….
