I'm thinking random hippie.

Me too.
And they're charging $300 for a print.

If it is some random hippie, it's a pretty rotten thing to do, passing him off as Duane Allman and charging people for a print!
Duane would looked cute with a ponytail though. I always have been very fond of guys with ponytails. So fond that I actually shed a tear when Dustin got his cut off. *sniffle* (He got a mullet for a Halloween party we went to last year, and the day after the party got the whole thing cut short. The short cut was better than the mullet, anyway.)

haha thats not even close to Duane..what were they thinking

Really don't think so...looks like he's drinking from a maple syrup bottle. The giveaway are the shades...those all plastic cheapies weren't available until the late seventies/early eighties. And the blanket is too convenient...looks staged.

This looks like Jeff "the skunk" baxter from Dobbies/Steely Dan fame...

Ain't our Duane...

I think you can tell by the shape of his forehead that it is not Duane. Duane has kind of a protruding eyebrow line due to his bone structure. Duane also has a weak chin (of course that's covered up in the 2nd shot).

My vote - not Duane.

Gregg in the 1st. one,some random hippie in 2nd. and my favourite shot of Duane & Gregg that first appeared in RS Nov.1971. Wail on Skydog!

It's neither of them.

But I recognize the Mateus bottle......

Right on Lisa. No way that chin is Duane. The hair with the feathered bangs are mid to late 70's and something acheived with a hair dryer and brush. I don't believe Duane was a blow dryer guy. (He might have snorted dry blow) No way to spend your money on these photos.
Wail On, Happy Labor Day all. Donnah, nice to see you posting more than just Duane again.

What's he drinking? Aunt Jemima syrup?

LOL, I couldn't figure it out!
Sent you some e-mail, Carl.

Man, if anybody did drink maple syrup straight from the bottle, they really *would* have the Abscessed Tooth Ache Blues.

NO, NO, NO! This is not Duane. I don't think the top one is Gregg either. I have seen these before and think somebody is trying to make a few bucks from some pictures SHE took of one of her hippie boyfriends. Donnah you knew Mike would know what was being drunk, drank, ah hell hoisted.

Thank you anyway Donnah. You have to wade through some sh@t to get to the pearl or something like that.

Wail on, Skydog!

He's too pretty. I just figured it out...that's Brad Pitt, pre-JennA. That's how he looked in "True Romance."

Random hippie.

lots of cobain pics out there,better looking too.

Cobain only knew three chords.

Yeah, but he knew them pretty well.

And he had Pat Smear to back him up. Although The Germs may possibly be the worst band of all time, Pat can play......

I thnk it's Clapton in the 2nd photo. Looks like Eric after Derek & the Dominos around the Rainbow concert period. The first picture the guy has on some sort of sport jersey.(note the mesh material between shoulder and sleeve) Now Gregg may be a syrup drinker but I don't think he would don a team jersey unless he could get some endorsement $ out of it.

saw duane & eric in concert once,i was told,dont remember,orange barrels . duanes myspace music page could use a little love,people can you feel it?

was told i saw duane and eric in concert once,dont remember much because of the orange barrels. duanes facebook music page could use a little love,can you feel it?

Ive been seeing pictures of Duane and Gregg for 40 years and none of those pictures are of either brother!

Someone needs to be horse whipped for trying to sell bogus crap. These pictures aren't era correct either. Cameras didnt take that clear of pictures back then. Greggs face was very thin back then and the mutton chops and shape of the face is totally wrong for either brother. Duane never wore a polo v neck in his life I bet!

hey, I got 40 acres of land in Alaska with oil on it to last for 100 years. First $100,000 takes it! These pictures are just plain dumb. You would have to be a 3 generation fan to fall for it. And if you are avid and have a computer you know better. Like trying to pass a made in china Les Paul for a Gibson Paul, It just aint happening!

Wail on skydoggies, wail on!

Next week I hope we get to see OUR boy, not somebody's random cousin Algernon from North Dakota, pretending to be Duane.
Fake DA pics equal Double-;lus Ungood!

Hey Donnah, next Wednesday is my birthday. Can I get a special something for hitting 52?

Willard, are you sure you want the "special" birthday pics? I didn't figure you for neeked DA pictures but what do I know! Maybe Donnah can find some neeked Janice pics for ya;)!! On second thought, maybe not. I hit 52 August 15th. '57 a very special year.

Wail on, Skydog!

Willard, you don't want the kind of Duane pics I give out for birthday presents...

Damn, Cindy, you talking about Joplin? That's just...yuck. Skeezy, scurvy, skanky.

Dan, were there orange barrels blocking the stage or is that the name of some drug you took that prevented you from storing an historic event in your memory? Duane Allman and Eric Clapton performed in public together, what, twice? Great time for a memory wipe.

You may be right. I'm probably not ready to see the total Howard Duane Allman. I know I got a good laugh seeing the photo from the DA Anthology I booklet with Duane holding a leaf in front of his privates. The full Monte would probably kill me.

Maybe Dan was actually stuck *in* an orange barrel and couldn't get a clear view?
Willard, you best be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it! lol Well, we could make you an honorary member of the Sisterhood of the Vanishing pants. Might be fun to have a brother in the club. lol
And my birthday's the 11th, two days after yours. But I already got my special pic last year.

Yes Donnah, I was thinking of the skeezy, scurvy, skanky Ms Joplin. You did notice I said maybe not...right? We wouldn't want to scar Willard now would we! I think he would prefer the special DA pics to that one.

So do I.
I think he would prefer ANYTHING to a nekkid Janis pic.

Its too late ladies. I've already been scarred. When I was about 6 my great grandmother stepped into mine and my brother's bedroom to do a quick change of her unmentionables. She thought we were sleeping and after I saw what I did, I wished I had been.

That's some heavy trauma, Willard. Have there been any lingering after effects?

No effects. Same as I ever was, same as I ever was, same as I ever was...

It appears Willard needs some kind of help here. Talk therapy? An intervension? An exorcism?
Or just a stiff drink and a bong hit?

Yah... whoever is tryin to pass these off.... GET LOST! Theres no way its Duane, or Gregg even.

And in this kind of business, you dont sell, you TRADE as in "hey check this out, bet you didnt have it before. Go ahead and use it"

(but dont use anything from this guy if he's tryin to say thats Duane Allman... Maybe pretend its one of the roadies...

Hey Willard! go to twitter and twitpic and type in skydogv. In my twitpics I got a neeked Duane picture. He sure was a skinny hippie! But, he has a leaf in a strategic place so it is G rated. The G stands for Goody right girls?

By the way, thinking of pictures and the A bros sleeping here reminds me of a old hippie thats in trouble.

Annie Leibovitz who got her start back in the late 60s or early 70s with Rolling Stone is in deep cat hockey! She took the famous pictures of the brothers here sleeping in the back of the limo. She took the last picture of John Lennon and Yoko the night he was killed. Took pictures of Presidents and Queens and everyone famous including the brothers. Although Duane and brother Gregg wouldnt pose for the pictures she wanted to take. They said at the time, "We aint on no star trip!" They treated her bad, and she didnt get all the pictures she needed. Snagged this one which is terrific! (I had a original AL from Rolling Stone of this picture! She even developed it. No telling how much it is worth now! I dont want to get into the sad story of how I dont have it anymore, It was beyond my control.:<(

She is in deep financial trouble but refuses to declare bankruptcy. She borrowed millions to pay back millions now she owes late fees and people have sued her. She put up every picture she ever took, along with every picture she will ever take in the future to secure the loans. Now, the people want their money, cause she defaulted on the loans. She may lose all source of income now and in the future. What is wrong with her thinking? I would sacrifice some of my bounty to keep most of it.

Wasnt there a country song called, What was I thinking? Might be appropriate here! lol

wail on skydoggies, wail on!

I guess Miss Annie knows all about a camera but nothing much about money. Shame.
And yes, Sheila, g does indeed stand for goody/good/great/gorgeous! Also stands for "Good Lord, somebody make this guy sit down and eat a decent dinner, with second helpings plus dessert!"

Thanks for the tweet pic Sheila. I didn't recall the Allman 6 pack in this picture. My brother got me an authentic Coricidin bottle with a Duane photo promenantly showing said bottle in slide position. My brother said he wouldn't guarantee the bottle was the same bottle as the photo but would guarantee it was a Coricidin bottle. I tend to torment my family with my Duane addiction but they tolerate me

Willard, I do the same thing to my family! lol! but what can they do, they are used to it, Ive been tormenting them for too many years to count! Happy Birthday Willard!

A Duane addiction isn't the worst thing you could torment your relatives with. I mean, Willard, you could be a golf nut, the kind who deserts his bride on the wedding day to play, or who plays even as the lightning sizzles up his club.
And Sheila, you could be one of those ladies who is always doing those "direct marketing" deals, like Lia Sofia jewelry or Longaberger baskets or Mary Kay: the kind of lady who never invites people to a party without trying to get them to buy something.
Yeah, I think our little obsession is pretty tolerable.

Starla, Me too! I'm not much of a salesman. Although I can put a pretty good auction up on ebay. But, never had the patience to sell mary Kay or Avon etc. And online get rich schemes are crazy stupid! Only the people putting them on the net make any money. I got caught many years ago when I first moved to Texas. Took me 11 months to find a job and my savings was shot. This was before the internet. I answered a paid ad in a magazine and sent them a $5.00 bill to start stuffing envelopes..OOps! Bad idea! The scam was stuffing envelopes and paying for stamps and the envelopes to put a flyer in to send to someone else to stuff envelopes! (kinda lame huh? but people who need money will try anything and its sad those ads hurt the ones that are most finanically in need) It was a huge scam and I gotta laugh now, I was so naive!

At least you didn't send in like, a check for $100, or devote a lot of hours to some worthless "training program."
Dustin and I BOTH got laid off in the last month. Wasn't entirely unexpected but that doesn't make it sting any less) so we both have had to wade through all kinds of junk "help wanted" type advertisements. Luckily Dustin landed another job fairly quickly, although it pays quite a bit less than his other job (he's in HVAC) and he has to drive forty miles to and from it. He isn't crazy about it, but he's darn lucky to have gotten it, and he knows it. Me, I'm still looking, shopping my resume around and playing phone tag.
I keep running across these ads in the local sale paper, stuff like "work from home and make as much as blah-blah dollars a week!" All scams of course, no phone numbers or addresses, just a website like happymoms.com or mothersathome.com. About as legit as the other ads for "Big Brad's Gun Shop." I swear I am not making that up. I've wiled away many happy hours trying to imagine the kind of person who would be named Big Brad and runa sketchy gun shop. lol Probably some short, tattooed, creepy-eyed fellow with perhaps a lot of jail time behind or ahead of him.
