The headline writer and the person who created the webpage link aside, I can't wait to see these three in my hometown. I just hope I can get from stage to stage without missing part of the three shows.

That IS a great lineup! Wonder if they'll take Confederate money, bluedad?

They're billing this as an Allman Brothers Band reunion? That's the suggestion, anyway. Should be a great show!

"CHATTANOOGA, TN (WRCB) - Gregg Allman and other former Allman Brothers Band Members will have their own little reunion on the Coke Stage at Riverbend on June 12th. ... "

I think it is just bad writing by the person who wrote the article vs being actually promoted as a reunion.

However, I am perfectly fine if other former band members want to show up. I'm sure we can find a keytar somewhere.

If this were 30 years earlier this line "before joining Allman on the Coke Stage" would likely mean something else.

I am surprised they didn't pull using The Allman Brothers Band in the ad. Obviously incorrect.

Having said that, I would love to see that show!

Can anybody chime in as to how large the Riverbend Festival is/can get?

It has been going on in Chattanooga since the early 80's and runs for 9 days. I think there are 5 stages and can run from 50,000 up to 140,000 which I think was the record. It just depends on the headlining artist.
