When the Allman Brothers Band announced that they were moving their traditional March residency to a venue-to-be-named-later some time in May, we figured they would be playing at the Nokia Theater or United Palace Theater.

It turns out the legendary Southern rockers have come to terms with the Dolans and will indeed return to the stage that’s hosted 175 Allmans shows since 1989: The band has lined up 15 shows at the Beacon from May 5 through May 24. We just wish the tickets were a little more reasonable instead of being priced at a mind-blowing $149.99, $99.99 and $59.99. Ouch! [via Live Daily]
