Warren Brings His Friends to NYC
For several years following the turn of the millennium, Warren Haynes was playing everywhere, with everyone. Lately, though, the hardest-working seemingly homeless man in show business has been noticeably absent from the spotlight.
But according to Haynes’ website, the takes-all-comers guitarist is headed back to the Large Apple in support of his soon-to-be-released live album:
In celebration of the release of Warren Haynes Presents: The Benefit Concert Volume 2, Warren and many of the artists on both Volume 1 and 2 will be taking part in 2 very special events on Wednesday March 28th. At 5pm there will be a CD signing at the Virgin Megastore in Union Square followed by an All-Star Performance at Irving Plaza. A limited number of tickets to this show, along with a guaranteed place in line for the signing, will be given away FREE with purchase of The Benefit Concert Volume 2 at Virgin Union Square beginning at 9am on Tuesday, March 6th. A very limited number of tickets to the Irving Plaza show will be on-sale to the public on 3/9.
I couldn’t care less about getting his Herbie Hancock on a newly purchased disc, but if the Warren & Friends show of yore are any indication, this could be an epic night in the making. We’ll have more on the special guests as news rolls in…

This Christmas Jam is special as it is the first one after the death of Mule bass player Allen Woody. The whole night seemed to be dedicated to him.
I’d love for Warren to release highlights of the One For Woody concert. That was one of the best musicial experiences I’ve had since moving to NYC.
So do we think that this means ABB at Irving Plaza with some special guests thrown in for good measure? If so that would be pretty awesome to see them in a room that small.
Yeah, I’m thinkin’ no matter who shows up that night it’s gonna be a special evening. Still, give me Gregg and Warren up on that stage and I’m a happy man.
That One for Woody release would be sweetness.
I think its going to be some NYC and sit-in standards plus Mule and the Brothers for sure. Kinney, Popper, DJ Logic, The Duo, many many a horn player….. It will be a magical evening - Warren has def bcecome NYC’s hometown hero.
