I love their music, but I'm sketchy on my history there. I'll wait for confirmation on this one for sure.
One of those three is wrong.

EDIT - Hell with it. I've decided that two out of three aint bad (I want youuuu, I need youuuu....)

Duane and Berry did both die due to motorcycle accidents in Macon Georgia and the sites of the two accidents were roughly a block from each other. Duane had his accident in late October of 1971 and Berry his in early November of 72, making them almost exactly a year a part.

Technically Berry didn't die in the accident, but he died later due to injuries caused by it. Me, I get hit by a bus I figure I'll get a doctor to check me out, but Mr. Oakley thought he was fine.
