The organization man who loved the Allman Brothers so much he killed for them. Literally. “I loved him as much as I’ve ever loved anyone," says Jaimoe.
I've read One Way Out and Brothers and Sisters and I never thought that you exonerated Twiggs, Alan. You simply presented the facts in an unbiased manner, the way any good journalist would do.
Alan Paul-I love your history with The Allmans. I bought two of your Autographed books on The Brother.
I met Skoots at The Asbury Park Convention Center in 78/79. I went to see Sea Level but only arrived in time to see Bonnie Raitt. Skoots was kind and gave me a backstage pass. I was only 17 (1978?). He told me he wasnt angry about Gregg testifying against him, it was political.
Thanks for tying Twiggs to Skoots. I never knew until now, almost 50 years later. I have every Album From Gregg and the Brothers. I would have died for them too.
Last note: T. Lavitz, keyboardist for The Dixie Dregs, was a good friend. He went to school with my older Brother Russell. I was friends with his Brother K. when we both lived in L.A. in the late 70's.
Did I tell you I was born and raised in Lakewood, NJ?
This is a crazy sentence to write but you spoke to Scooter, not Skoots. Scooter Herring is the guy Gregg testified against and Sea Level took him out on the road. Did you read Brothers and Sisters? All derailed there.
I bought, but havent read yet. Thanks for clearing this up, I was confused. I will discipline myself to read the books and get off this cell. Thank you, again. I have been listening since 1972? Maybe '71.
I read One Way Out and Brothers and Sisters, Alan, and I never thought that you did anything other than lay out the facts of the case in an unbiased manner, as any good journalist should.
Appropriate for murdering someone? Very strongly disagree. The defense said he was in an altered mental state due to the stresses of being ABB's road manager. All I can say is that during 27 years as a Respiratory Therapist, often 12 hour night shifts, there certainly were times when I was in an altered mental state and wanted to kill somebody. I opted to stay in free society.

Thank you. Thems the facts. You can also appreciate amazing job of lawyering without thinking he should have been freed.

NP. Skoots/Scooter is confusing and I never even thought about it before.
Twiggs has been so glorified in ABB lore. However, he murdered someone, and should have been incarcerated.
I don't disagree. It's a wild story. I lay it out pretty directly and factually here. He was a genius but...

He served his time in a mental health facility, which was appropriate for his sentence.
Fair to contemplate how you’d feel if you were the victim’s family.

Whether you agree with it or not, that was his sentence. Mental illness is a tricky thing.
