Briefly: Renovated Beacon Opening Soon

Some Dude just shot me over an e-mail with the first announcement we’ve seen for a concert at the newly renovated Beacon Theatre. 3 Girls and Their Buddy (Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin, Shawn Colvin and Buddy Miller) goes down on February 20, while legendary guitarists Buddy Guy and B.B. King return to the Beacon on February 21. No word yet on dates for the Allman Brothers Band 40th Anniversary run in March, but perhaps Gregg will spill the beans at the Billboard Touring Conference on Thursday.
