That is really great! I got to see a bit of Derek this summer when he was touring with his awesome wife and bandmate Susan.

At first I thought the subject referred to Clapton with Zevon. :thwap:

I have always loved the ABB. I am far too young to have ever seen them in their original lineup, but my dad liked them so I heard them early in my life and I started listening to them on my own as a teenager and I took to it immediately. I saw many many shows in the Dickey Betts/Warren Haynes era (like upwards of 30 shows, I kind of lost count). I was particularly fond of Allen Woody's bass playing and loved it when he and Warren first formed the trio version of Gov't Mule. When Dickey left I was sad, but the addition of Derek was a fantastic idea. I am a fan of everything Derek has done. He is one of the most interesting players of his generation. For him to play with that band is exciting and Warren is Warren. He's always been the perfect player for that band.

And Susan Tedeschi (aka Mrs. Trucks) rocks too. We saw her open for Bela Fleck a few years ago. I have several ABB shows with her as a guest. Always good.

That entire DVD of the ABB at the Beacon Theatre is awesome. And it goes back a bit -- Derek was still the second guitarist in the band. Last time I saw them they were two equals, and two of the best in the business. Word is Warren isn't busy enough with Mule and ABB -- he's playing for the reunited Dead on an upcoming tour, rumour has it.

The lineup for this edition of The Dead will be the same one that rocked the house at Penn State last fall at the Obama benefit: The Core Four of Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart, joined by guitar monster Warren Haynes and RatDog keyboard ace Jeff Chimenti (both veterans of the 2004 Dead "Wave That Flag" tour). The mood of the band for this Spring Fling is way up, so it’s sure to be a great tour!

As a bassist, I am most comfortable playing with fingers. Now that I'm playing and composing on the guitar, I've really struggled with holding a pick. I swear I just can't do it. Even a thin pick feels really foreign, and I always feel lost without the direct contact to the strings.

then I watched Crossroads with Derek Trucks and Jeff Beck playing with their fingers, and I was blown away! Now I'm much more optimistic that I can play this thing with 6 strings.
