Allman Brothers tribute band returns

Thursday, March 1, 8 p.m.—KILLINGTON—Live at the Fillmore, billed as the definitive tribute to the original Allman Brothers band, will appear for a special one-night-only show on Thursday, March 1 at the Pickle Barrel Nightclub in Killington. The show is open to anyone 21 years of age and older.

Live at the Fillmore (LATF) offers an exact reproduction of the live concert performances of the original Allman Brothers Band featuring Duane Allman, Dickey Betts and Berry Oakley. The Allman Brothers Band often performed at the Fillmore East Auditorium in New York City. It was there on June 26, 1971, that LATF founding member Lou Maresca heard what would be known as “The Show.” It would not only be the last public show at the venue from the Allman Brothers Band, but also the band’s most highly regarded one.

Musically and sonically, LATF creates the experience of hearing the Allman Brothers Band as they sounded in 1969-1971. The band performs a spot-on show including classic Allman Brothers songs including “Dreams,” “In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed,” “Whipping Post,” “Melissa,” “Ramblin’ Man” and “Jessica,” often performing the entire “At Fillmore East” album in track order.

Tickets can be purchased online, at JAX Food & Games, or at the Pickle Barrel during business hours. Tickets will also be available at the door on the night of the performance. Doors open at 8 p.m. The Pickle Barrel is located midway on Killington Road. For more information, visit picklebarrelnightclub.com.
