I googled "Allman" today and this came up.

http://www.sctimes.com/story/entertainment/music/2015/10/14/allman-brothers-band-tribute-group-ready-st-shows/73826450/

I thought this part of the article was particularly funny....

"“We’re not going to play them as long as the Allman Brothers do,” Hasbrouck said, noting this is a different audience than the acid-tripping ones that watched the band decades ago. “This is probably a more focused crowd. They’ll appreciate the jamming, but I don’t think they want to hear ‘Whipping Post’ going 20 minutes.”"

thanks for posting,

I liked this quote as well from the guitarist/singer:

“Every single tune I love,” Hasbrouk said. He said it might sound silly, but Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dickey Betts is so unbelievably underrated that he’s almost on the level of a Mozart.

“Some of his musical pieces are just mind blowing,” Hasbrock said.
