In an inexplicable moment caught on camera, Duane was not front and center.
Wail on, Skydog!
This was the image burned into the minds of The Outlaws, Marshall Tucker and CDB..although Duane was
way more into jazz and such, they used this image as an excuse to take southern rock off in a C and W direction.
Either that, or it's just a weird ass picture.
Maybe it's just because it's 5th of July..
Posted by: csason at July 5, 2007 05:02 AMDuane may have been emulating their dressing habits but I'm betting little bro had gotten a warning that the next screw up he made he was gonna find a size 9 boot up his posterior and Skydog wore them onstage to emphasis the point.
I love that collection of old school amplification going on behind him too.
Posted by: Gmac at July 5, 2007 08:28 AMThe more I look at the pic, the more I hear a cover of "Stand By Your Man" in the background..but I guess that just isn't possible.
