I tell my wife these memories and she cannot relate at all, way too young.

But I di...Never saw the Allman brothers in concert. But I did run into Duane and Gregg one summer day in 1968 at the Santa Monica pier. They were performing as the Allman Joy band at the time. They were hanging out on the pier, checking out the bikini girls and SoCal scene. They both had on those tall Lincoln top hats with long blond hair and were wearing old civil war officers jackets, the long ones with tails. Really cool looking dudes that stood out... and that's hard to do on the boardwalk in Santa Monica.<br /><br />KJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
