From The New York Times:

The Allman Brothers Band celebrates its 40th anniversary in March 2009 and the 20th anniversary of its first appearance at the Beacon Theater in New York. The run at the theater is dedicated to Duane Allman, the band's founding guitarist, who died in a motorcycle accident in 1971.

The concerts at the Beacon will be different, Gregg Allman said in a phone interview from his Savannah, Ga., home. ''Somebody said, 'Let's do it in honor of big brother,' and we all agreed.'' The next suggestion, he said, was to invite everyone who played with Duane Allman to make appearances at the shows.

A revered session player, Duane performed with many people during his 24 years -- and so, while the Beacon shows have always been known for the guests who appear with the band (whose lineup now consists of the original members: the singer and keyboard player Gregg Allman, the drummers Butch Trucks and Jaimoe, joined by the guitarists Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks, the bass player Oteil Burbridge and the percussionist Marc QuiƱones), 2009 looks to be especially star studded. There are pervasive rumors that Eric Clapton, members of the Grateful Dead and B. B. King will turn up onstage over the run.

Though several artists have longstanding relationships with particular stages -- the Grateful Dead at Madison Square Garden, Mr. Clapton at the Royal Albert Hall in London -- no established band has been so closely associated with one location as the Allman Brothers Band has with the Beacon.

Formed in Jacksonville, Fla., the Allman Brothers helped lay the foundation for what came to be known as Southern rock with their expansive blend of rock, jazz and blues. Yet the band always maintained a close connection to New York, dating back to the days of the legendary Fillmore East, where it recorded a classic live album in 1971. The bond between these rural Southerners and this Northeastern city has ''always been kind of puzzling,'' Butch Trucks said. Mr. Allman said New Yorkers simply ''love good music, and they like it played long and hard.''

After the Fillmore closed in 1971, the band went looking for a home base in Manhattan. It settled on the 2,800-seat Beacon in 1989.

For fans who can't make it to the Beacon, the 2009 shows can also be seen live over the Web at moogis.com, a new site spearheaded by Mr. Trucks. For $125 subscribers can watch real-time, five-camera feeds of all 15 concerts, which will then be available on demand until Sept. 30. He plans for the site to evolve into an online home for jam bands and their followers. -- Alan Light, NYTimes
