Allman Brothers Beacon Theatre Run, 2013

Once a year, NYC’s Upper West Side is graced with the pleasure to host The Allman Brothers Band at The Beacon Theatre, for about 2-3 weeks.  10 nights of the Allman’s.  Southern twang, slide guitars, songs that break your heart and songs that transport you to another place.  Well, for me anyways……….

March Madness.  And, on a side note.  Soulive‘s residency at the Brooklyn Bowl, Bowlive, usually overlaps the Beacon run.  ABB seems to be at the Beacon a little earlier than last year, so the urge to be at both places at the same time will be tough to handle.

Luckily, they like to jam with each other.  Grab your tickets!

Happy New Year’s from View Skewed

Whatever you’re doing tonight, have a blast, be safe, and dance your booty off.  A new year: a celebration of freeing yourself from the old, setting new and improved intentions for the new. Tonight I celebrate with my loved one, Gov’t Mule, and a bunch of like minded Muleheads in the Beautiful Beacon Theatre.  Many of my Posse are Phishing tonight at Madison Square Garden, and I am thankful that we are representing around the city.

Much love to those who read this blog, I appreciate your support and your comments, and I love to write my skewed views down on “paper.”  My new intention for next year:  Get better about writing the shows down.  I admittedly was lacking the latter part of this year, and I will try hard to stay on track for next year.

Here’s to a great 2012, may it be prosperous, healthy and happy for us all!
