Topic: Allman Brothers, Beacon Theatre, NY

Hey Joe Beacon.  I just read in another thread that you are going to attend 15 of the Allman Brothers shows in May at the Beacon in New York city.  Will you be going on Friday night, May 23rd?  If so, my husband and I are coming into New York for the weekend to go to that show.  Would you want to meet before the show for a drink?  If you would like to let me know.  Can't wait to see the Allman Brothers with Derek and Warren.  I am sooo psyched!!  Looking forward to being back in N.Y. again.  Take care.

Hey joe,

Recording any/some/all of the shows when you're there? Chance to get a copy of your favorite one? I'm sure they'll all be great!

Re: Allman Brothers, Beacon Theatre, NY

Hi jb,

I'm so envious of your 15 night stint seeing ABB. It's a great shame they never seem to tour outside NY, or even the US, nowadays. In 1972 I queued and bought tickets for both their gigs at the Rainbow Theatre in London, then they cancelled. I was heartbroken, or as we say on this side of the pond "gutted".

I then had to wait until 1974 for their next European tour, when I finally saw them at Knebworth festival. They weren't quite dots, but the view at the Rainbow would have been better.

I still have the "1974 European Tour" badge as well as some great memories.

Setlist:

1. Wasted Words 
2. Done Somebody Wrong 
3. One Way Out 
4. Stormy Monday 
5. Midnight Rider 
6. Blue Sky 
7. In Memory of Elizabeth Reed 
Set II:
8. Statesboro Blues 
9. Come and Go Blues 
10. Ramblin' Man 
Encore:
11. Trouble No More 
12. Jessica 
13. You Don't Love Me 
14. Les Brers In A Minor 
Encore II:
15. Whipping Post
