2 nights of THE BROTHERS at msg. I wish this band played together more often and maybe they will. Warren Hayes is the man as he did mostly all the signing (chuck leavell stepped in a few songs on piano and sang) but Warren took the lead solo on some of the songs and hammered them, the next night Derek took the solos which was super cool they took turns. These two guys absolutely tore the garden open. Derek is an absolute beast. And one of the greatest guitar players I’ve ever seen. There’s a video of him shredding whipping post and his string breaks and just keeps hammering the song. They did 17 minute Elizabeth reed night one which my highlights soulshine being annother and they only repeated the songs they basically had to play only doing two nights. Blue sky, whipping post, dreams , and when they played nobody left to run with anymore they had a tribute screen of all the Allman brothers band members, they all got big cheers Duane and of course Gregg but Dickey got a really big cheer people still hurting from that loss. And all crew and managers and then they got our boy PHIL in there and the crowd went wild it was a huge roar for him. Very special stuff. And Jaimoe came out both nights to play a few tunes but had 2 drummers helping along Joe Russo being one of them. Jaimoe said a few words, which was cool to hear a legend and original member say how much he loved being at the garden and doing shows. Crowd was super quiet and respectful and then cheered like crazy, the man still truckin at 80, I saw him for his 80th bday with Friends of the brothers and he’s still got some gas in the tank. Excellent heartwarming shows. two nights wasn’t enough
