#WhereWasDickeyToday. The Allman Brothers Band at the UNC Jubilee. 53 years ago today, the last of the Jubilee concerts was held at the University of North Carolina. The three day festival featured performances by Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, The Allman Brothers Band, Cowboy, Spirit and the J. Geils Band. The concerts at Navy Field drew record crowds of an estimated 48,000 fans over the three days. A week after the 1971 concerts were held, the Student Union Activities Group recommended that Jubilee be discontinued. It had grown too big, and had been marred by complaints about noise, trash and unruly crowds for years. 1971 was the last straw. Concert goers crashed the front gates and tore down fences. A security guard that was hired for the event was injured trying to stop people from flowing through the holes in the fence. The Allman Brothers played several songs from their upcoming At Fillmore East album including Statesboro Blues, Don't Keep Me Wonderin', In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Whipping Post and One Way Out. Chapel Hill, NC. May 1, 1971. 📷: John Gellman, Ric Carter. #allmanbrothers #RIPdickeybetts #jaimoe #RIPduaneallman #RIPberryoakley #RIPbutchtrucks #RIPgreggallman #legends #brothers #icons #abb #soundsofthesouth #theroadgoesonforever @thebighousemuseum
