The Beacon is buzzing, the web server is groaning from the load, and my cell phone battery is 48%

Hold on, strap yourself in, Lana is hyperventilating, and we are filled with mixed emotions as we contemplate the final ABB show

Just heard a couple hits on the bass drum,..


I'll get right to it...

Rowland: I just want to thank you and Lana for all you have done for all of us over the years. It has been an amazing ride and I am thankful that I got to share so many shows with my family and friends. The Road Does indeed Go on Forever because of the friendships we have forged over all these years. Enjoy tonight sir. Thanks again, Johnny Garth

If any two people should be at the final show, it's Rowland and Lana. So glad you are there - hugs to you both.

Thanks for the updates, Rowland.
I was kind of wondering though...how the heck does someone really take in a show...and hang out on a web site at the same time?
I'm old... 😉

Sounds like one for the ages so far, there's still a lot to plow through though

Oh, and the server must have cooled down, it's full speed ahead

Solid but slightly subdued relative to last nights scorcher. I get the sense they are doing the slow build for a rip-roaring 2nd set, but time will tell. So happy to be in the house and enjoying every minute, sight, sound and smell 🙂

Wanted to join the chorus of thanks to you and Lana, Rowland. You are doing, and have done, a wonderful thing here and touched many lives in the process. So glad to have been a part of it and the wonderful music that is The Allman Brothers Band! Y'all enjoy!

I waited on line at the box office for 5 hours and scored one of the last tickets they released at around 8:50. 15th row Orchestra Center. The show has been phenomenal so far and I met some of the coolest people tonight waiting on line. More later. On with the show. This has been an amazing run of shows for me.

You gotta love technology - I just resized the web server from my cell phone at the show!
Twice the power so hopefully enough juice

And speaking of juice, huge thanks to Brosicle for a cell charge battery Smile

Amazing first set!


I'll get right to it...
