Love and shrooms for Gregg Allman outside the former Fillmore East on 2nd Avenue



Gregg Allman, a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, died Saturday at age 69.

Someone left this homemade tribute to him outside the former site of the Fillmore East, the music venue on Second Avenue at Sixth Street where Allman and company were regulars...



There are also some mushrooms. As Rolling Stone once noted of the band: "They ingested such vast quantities of psychedelic mushrooms that the mushroom became a band logo: Each member got one tattooed on his upper calf."
