<p>Great story! I think I shared my story in a blog a few years ago about my experience w Gregg but I'll share again. He was starting his tour in Cleveland and I had a feeling he would be doing rehearsal the day before the show. My wife likes to play the slots, so she said she would ride up with me while I waited for Gregg. </p>
<p>Of course, I was the only one there on a cool March evening. Security came out and said he might be awhile. I said, I have nothing else to do, my wife is…</p>
<p>Great story! I think I shared my story in a blog a few years ago about my experience w Gregg but I'll share again. He was starting his tour in Cleveland and I had a feeling he would be doing rehearsal the day before the show. My wife likes to play the slots, so she said she would ride up with me while I waited for Gregg. </p>
<p>Of course, I was the only one there on a cool March evening. Security came out and said he might be awhile. I said, I have nothing else to do, my wife is gambling. About 15 minutes pass by and the manager comes out and said "What do you have?" I said I had Gregg's book and I really would like it signed. (I think it helped that I had his book) He said ok. Then I said- I have an album too, do you think he could do that too? He took them both back stage and came back a few minutes later with both items signed. He inscribed the book "Thanks, Gregg Allman 2015" and the album with his name and year. </p>
<p>The manager said "He should be coming out in a few minutes if you want to meet him." I said sure! So he comes out, I shake his hand and thank him for signing my items and the great music. I asked if we could take a quick picture and he said "No, I'm all bundled up." Which he was, he had on a winter coat, scarf and hat for a 30 second walk to his bus. Then went right on the bus. At least I got 2 things signed but would have loved the pic. </p>
<p>Another legend is gone. So long midnight rider.</p>
