Willie Nelson’s kith and kin roadshow is caravaning into select stops this summer. Entering its second decade, the Outlaw Music Festival Tour returns on July 3 to The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas. Following tradition, Nelson and family will serve as headliners, with guests like Wilco, Sheryl Crow, Margo Price, The Avett Brothers, Don Was, Robert Randolph, Sierra Hull, and others stepping in and lending their own songs to the unique experience, which takes the sensations of a music festival and packs it into a singular evening. This year’s lineup has been scaled back to 12 total engagements.

Today, the first preview of the Gregg Allman Band’s previously unreleased Philadelphia concert, played and recorded on January 11, 1986, has arrived. The initial single off the impending record, Great As Ever: Live In Philadelphia ’86, due on Friday, April 10 via the subject’s posthumous label, Sawrite Records, comes in the form of a 2:45 live cut centering on the bandleader’s iteration of the Allman Brothers Band covered, Spencer Davis Group instrumental, “Don’t Want You No More.”

Before there was a poster, there was a performance. The Fillmore was not merely a concert venue. It was the beating heart of a cultural revolution, a room where the boundaries between artist and audience, blues and psychedelia, commerce and counterculture, dissolved night after night into something entirely new. This auction traces that history through the paper artifacts that announced it: original posters, handbills, and tickets. Spanning from April 1966, when the first shows were barely being documented, through the early 1970s, when the era was already beginning to pass into legend.

Eggy’s esteem is no accident. There was no instant breakthrough where the music they’d dutifully crafted for years suddenly catapulted them to the major marquees they grace today. There’s been no surprise crossover hit, game-changing co-sign or single viral moment that put them over the top. The quartet’s recognition among the foremost purveyors of improvisational rock is predicated on a decade of unflagging commitment to the tradition that’s gradually, and rightfully, won over a devoted following. They don’t take it for granted.
