Former Allman Brothers Bassist Brings Tribute Show To Wayne YMCA

WAYNE, NJ — Former The Allman Brothers Band bassist David "Rook" Goldflies will lead a tribute concert to the group at the YMCA of Wayne in October.

A Brother's Revival will perform at The Rosen Performing Arts Center on Friday, October 7. The show runs from 8-10:30 p.m., and tickets are available here from $40.

Doors open at 7 p.m. with on-site free parking. The two-and-a-half hour show takes fans through the Brothers' most beloved songs: Ramblin’ Man, One Way Out, Soulshine, Statesboro Blues, Midnight Rider, Melissa, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Jessica, Whipping Post, and "a few surprises for the fans that enjoy the deep jams."

Goldflies played with founding member Dickey Betts and Great Southern during the band's late-70s hiatus, and was the bassist from 1978-82 for the Allman Brothers.

He "is recognized by many fans as one of the Allman Brothers' most dynamic bass players, with his playing akin to the aggressive style of original Allman Brothers' bassist, Berry Oakley," the event page says.

Vocalist and keyboardist Mike Kach, who toured with Dickey Betts and Great Southern for more than a decade, joins Goldflies for the revival show.

The show is presented by Super 1 Productions. Click here for more information.
