In New York the Allman Brothers Band perform live at the Beacon Theater for their 20th annual year performing there. The band is celebrating a 40 year milestone.
Every March for 20 years the band has been performing at this venue. This event has become New York’s spring event. It also marked the return of the group to the venue, after having to bow out for just one year due to Gregg Allman’s liver issues. also, it marked the 40th anniversary of the Allman’s creation of the group. The band chose to dedicate this year’s run of 15 shows to their late, lead guitarist, Duane Allman, who perished in a motorcycle crash back in 1971.
This band has a lot of history and has been an influence to many in the blues-rock genre of music. It is thought that such of the southern rock was also formed from styles like the Allman Brothers. The band continues to record and tour.
