Fact is, the Allman Brothers Band were artistically creative, like any other musical band; so, the environment of the cemetary gave them that "school of thought". As far as drinking & drugging, who really cares; that's a "mute" point ... ... the Road Goes on Forever ... !!! Brien T. Oakley - Chicago, IL Jason,

Fri, 25 Jun 2010 03:43:22 +0000 http://www.theexpressionist.com/?p=178#comment-801 Hello. Today is the first time I visited Rose Hill Cementary. The fence does indeed have grease on it. I got some on my hands a few times. For those that have time and good foot wear I suggest you walk to it from the front gate. The reason I suggest walking is because the road ways to that area are very narrow accompanied by steep drop offs on either side of the road ways. BE VERY CAREFUL AND ALERT IF YOU DRIVE INSIDE!! It is on Carnation Ridge. The web site is www.rosehillcemetery.org. thank you, Duane H aka "Litmus" on allmanbrothersband.com Hello. Today is the first time I visited Rose Hill Cementary.

Allman Brothers' fans could get testy about that. Peace! Hi-

I tried to climb the fence and got my pants and hands covered in the stuff too. I heard rumors its a rampant fan that wants to protect the grave. Yes your right Berry Oakley is buried next to him!

Also, the fence is not covered in grease like you stated. And, last but not least, I doubt "downing a few cold ones" was their choice of a way to write music, probably something a little stronger.
