The Allman Brothers Band at New York State Fairgrounds — August 22, 1986

The Allman Brothers Band played a rare one-off at the New York State Fairgrounds — a genuine surprise during their 1982–89 hiatus. About 5,000 fairgoers watched the Juke Horns sit in on ‘Southbound’ and ‘Into the Mystic.’ A dormant Southern-rock legend, briefly awake in Syracuse. Forty years ago.
