The Fox Theater is truly a great venue - and I know venues. I'd guess that with the Fox's sound system most any performer is going to sound top notch. The Allman's were no exception. I should mention that just prior to these ABB shows, I saw The Dead at Shoreline and the sound (unless you get right up front) is HORRIBLE! Although I had a great time dancing with all my friends at the way top, I could barely hear the music. Soooo, with that show fresh in my head, the Fox, standing front stage right, with speakers teetering above my head, Gregg and Warren spitting distance from me, how could I go wrong? I LOVE Warren in whatever he does, be it Mule, Dead, solo, Allmans - anything he touches turns to gold. He shined these nights at the Fox. Derek is so gifted, although he held back (possibly out of respect for Warren?) and Gregg looked and sounded damn good. My only disappointment was that there was no special guests. ..at least that joined them on stage. Also, kudos to their fans, who surprised the hell out of me and were as a whole a great bunch of people.
