Dan Toler, a southern rock guitar great who was part of the Allman Brothers Band family, has died near his hometown of Sarasota, Fla. He was 65.

An all-star collection of talent from across the musical spectrum will pay tribute to Levon Helm of the Band, who died on April 19 following a lengthy bout with cancer. “Love for Levon” will take place at the IZOD Center in E. Rutherford, N.J. on Oct. 3.

Gregg Allman of the Allman Brothers Band revealed during a televised interview last night that he is engaged to be married for seventh time, to a 24-year-old woman identified only as Shannon.

Gregg Allman has been sober for years, but even though he’s left his bad habits behind, he’s still troubled by some memories of the old days — including the final conversation he had with his brother and bandmate Duane, the morning before a motorcycle accident took the legendary guitarist’s life at the young age of 24.

Approximately one week ago, Gregg Allman was forced to postpone his book tour in support of ‘My Cross To Bear‘ (released this past Tuesday) due to cardiac testing the rocker was undergoing at Florida’s Mayo Clinic. The clinic was looking to determine if additional care was going to be required for Allman relating to surgery he had recently undergone for a hernia.

Gregg Allman’s upcoming book tour in support of his ‘My Cross To Bear’ memoir has been delayed so that he can undergo diagnostic cardiac testing at the Mayo Clinic’s campus tomorrow, April 27.

The Allman Brothers Band closed a 10-night residency at the Beacon Theatre in New York City on Sunday night, and were forced to play parts of two of those shows without frontman and founder Gregg Allman. Allman walked off stage in pain on Saturday night and was taken to a local hospital.
