Gregg Allman, co-founding member of the legendary Allman Brothers Band, has passed away at the all-to-young age of 69. Gregg’s ailing health had impacted his tour schedule over the last couple of years and rumors of his death had started to circulate a couple of weeks ago.The Allman Brothers and Grateful Dead have a rich history with historic gigs and shared musicians—specifically Oteil Burbridge and Warren Haynes, she were both members of the Allman Brothers Band and reincarnations of the Grateful Dead. Although ABB officially called it quits a few years ago, the music lives on with Oteil, Warren and so many others.Phil Lesh and Friends were in the middle of a two night run at the Capitol Theater when news broke about Gregg’s passing. Phil dedicated the show to Gregg and honored him with a moving cover of “Midnight Rider.”Phil’s cast of friends changed slightly from the previous night and included Karl Denson, Robert Randolph, Neal Casal, Ross James, Tony Leone, Jason Crosby and Alex Koford.Thanks to our man Sean Roche , we have some awesome front row footage from the performance last night.Box of RainIt Takes a Lot to Laugh It Takes a Train to CryHere Comes SunshineSweet JanePlaying in the Band > Uncle John’s BandI Know You RiderFull Setlist:Set I (Phil dedicated show to Gregg Allman)Box of Rain (PL)Althea (NC)It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry (RJ)Loser (AK)Here Comes Sunshine > (NC, AK)Stagger Lee (NC)Sweet Jane > (RJ)(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction (NC)Set IIUncle John’s Band > (all)Dark Star jam >Playing in the Band > (NC)Uncle John’s Band > (all)Midnight Rider (all)Lady with a Fan > (PL)Terrapin Station > (all)I Know You Rider (all)Sugar Magnolia (NC)
