Editing The Allman Brothers Band (section)

In January 2017, founding member Butch Trucks died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. That May, founding member Gregg Allman died from complications arising from liver cancer at the age of 69, putting an end to any possibilities of a reunion.

In January 2020, the five surviving members of the final Allman Brothers lineup, calling themselves the Brothers, announced their intentions to hold a show to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the band on March 10 at Madison Square Garden.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.jambase.com/article/the-brothers-allman-brothers-madison-square-garden|title=Allman Brothers Alums & More Announce The Brothers Concert At Madison Square Garden|date=January 3, 2020|website=JamBase}}</ref><ref name = rsb50 >{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/allman-brothers-band-reunion-933228/|title=The Allman Brothers Band to Celebrate 50th Anniversary With Tribute Show|first1=David|last1=Browne|magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=January 3, 2020}}</ref> The concert lasted over four hours, with [[Duane Trucks]] taking the place of his uncle on drums, proto-Allmans member [[Reese Wynans]] taking the place of Gregg Allman on organ, and Warren Haynes taking on Gregg Allman's vocal parts.

(Dickey Betts was invited to participate but his health precluded him from traveling although he wished the event be successful.)<ref name = rsb50b /> Like the final Beacon show, the Brothers 50 concert was dominated by material from the group's first five albums.  The show was one of the last large concerts to take place before the [[2020 coronavirus pandemic in North America]] forced the shutdown of such events; some people accordingly did not go to it, and indeed especially due to the older demographic of the group's fan base, Derek Trucks would subsequently wonder whether it had been wise to move forward with it.<ref name = rsb50b >{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/derek-trucks-allman-brothers-tribute-new-york-coronavirus-969359/|title=Derek Trucks on Playing Live Before and After the Coronavirus Shutdown|first1=David|last1=Browne|magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=March 19, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-live-reviews/allman-brothers-tribute-madison-square-garden-965567/|title=Allman Brothers Survivors Honor the Band's Legacy at Fiery Tribute Show|first=David|last=Browne|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=March 11, 2020|access-date=April 18, 2024}}</ref>
