At the end of Chapter 1, The Band was still standing inside the afterglow of "The Weight." Music born in a basement in Woodstock had quietly redrawn the map of rock at the close of the 1960s.
But those who reach the summit are not met with blessings alone. There are expectations for the next record, tours with no end in sight, and that quiet, merciless demand: give us that sound again. The second half of The Band's story is, in part, a record of how they carried that weight.
Chapter 2 follows the long years that came after — from Stage Fright in 1970, through the farewell concert The Last Waltz in 1976, to January 2025, when Garth Hudson died and the last of the original members was gone. The friction behind that glamorous goodbye, and the unexpected renewals that grew out of it, belong to one and the same story.
🌅 "Stage Fright" and "Cahoots" — Drifting After Success
In the summer of 1970, The Band released their third album, Stage Fright. It reached number five in the United States. On paper, it looks like a continuation of success. Listen closely, though, and the air feels different from the plain, bright light of Music from Big Pink or the historical texture of The Band. The sound is as warm as ever, but something like exhaustion has settled beneath the warmth.
The title song is sung by bassist Rick Danko, and his voice trembles a little as he sings about the fear of standing on a stage. What makes the song remarkable is that the tremor does not sound like acting. On "The Shape I'm In," Richard Manuel delivers the monologue of a cornered man in a voice that seems to tear as it goes. Every time I hear it, I am reminded that a voice can become testimony in itself, quite apart from technique. "Daniel and the Sacred Harp" can be read as a fable about a man who hands over his soul in exchange for something he wants. Success, the song seems to say, is never free — and they were already singing that, in the form of a story, while still young.
Consider where The Band stood at the time and the mood makes sense. In August 1969 they had played the Woodstock festival, and the name "Woodstock" became a worldwide symbol of an era. Five men who had been making music in a basement with Bob Dylan were suddenly seen as people on the legendary side of the glass. I think they were searching for a place to stand between a quiet life and fame.
The fourth album, Cahoots, arrived in the autumn of 1971. As with Stage Fright, the critical response was cool, and many said it lacked the brilliance of the first two records. Yet there is plenty worth hearing here. Dylan's "When I Paint My Masterpiece." "4% Pantomime," in which Richard Manuel and Van Morrison join their voices. And "Life Is a Carnival," with horn parts written by the New Orleans arranger Allen Toussaint. The cheerful, sticky brass of that song gave a rock band a new palette of color.
What you notice in the Cahoots songs is that Robbie Robertson's way of telling stories turns slightly inward. The large narratives he had built on American history and folklore for Big Pink and The Band shrink here into small domestic scenes and feelings picked up on the road. That reads less as a decline in craft than as a reflection of a changing view of the world. In the middle of fame, a person is forced to learn the weight of being the one who tells the story — and that weight must have pressed hardest on Robbie, who stood at the center of the songwriting.
It is easy to call this period a simple drift. To me, it sounds like the time a band that had become a legend spent searching for how to breathe next. And, ironically, it was during that search that they met Toussaint, which opened the next chapter: their finest live album. Inside a slump sits the handle of the next door. These two records are the ones that make me believe that.
🎪 "Rock of Ages" — The Live Peak and a Revolution in Arrangement
For four nights at the end of 1971, December 28 through 31, The Band played the Academy of Music in New York. The recordings were released in August 1972 as the double live album Rock of Ages. As if the studio uncertainty had never existed, here are five musicians sure of their own music.
One of the stars of those nights was Allen Toussaint, who wrote the horn arrangements. The experience of working together on "Life Is a Carnival" for Cahoots led to this ambitious undertaking. New Orleans panache meeting the woodland music of Woodstock — the idea itself was already a musical event. And there was a small crisis behind the scenes. The horn charts Toussaint was supposed to bring were lost on the way (some accounts say stolen), and he had to rewrite them from memory in a cabin in Woodstock just before the shows. The rewritten charts turned out to be in different keys from the originals, so the band had to relearn the songs in the new keys. When I think that such a rushed backstage gave birth to those supple, precise horns, I can only bow to the resilience of working musicians.
The highlights are too many to count. "Don't Do It," The Band's explosive take on the R&B classic "Baby Don't You Do It." The run from "The Genetic Method" into "Chest Fever," where Garth Hudson's improvisation rings out like the interior of a cathedral. "Life Is a Carnival" is far livelier than the studio version, the song itself dancing on the horns' answering calls. It was a welcome surprise, too, to hear the outlines of songs like "The Weight" and "King Harvest" emerge brighter and thicker once the horns came in.
Levon Helm's drumming shows another face here. On the studio records he had been a restrained narrator, staying close to the story of each song; in the thickness of the horns he steps forward. Rick's bass undulates, Richard's piano sings, Robbie's guitar cuts in short and sharp. Each of the five roles becomes clearer on a stage. I think of this record as the best textbook for learning how The Band worked as a quintet.
Then, in the small hours of New Year's Day 1972, an old friend, Bob Dylan, jumped on stage and played the last four songs with them. The man with whom they had endured storms of booing on the 1966 world tour was now standing in warm applause. For contractual reasons, however, Dylan's appearance was left off the Rock of Ages release at the time. It would not see daylight until the expanded box set of 2013.
What draws me to Rock of Ages is that it shows how The Band's music was, in truth, "the sound of a room." The ensemble that seemed like a quiet conversation on the studio records leaps with surprising vitality in the air of a hall. A live album can sometimes become the best document because a band can re-measure its own outline inside an audience's applause. In those nights, a band that had been wandering regained its footing.
🎷 "Moondog Matinee" — Returning to the Roots Through Covers
In the autumn of 1973, The Band released Moondog Matinee. Every song was a cover, and the selection was the rock 'n' roll and R&B they had soaked up from the radio as boys. The title takes its "Moondog" from the nickname of Alan Freed, the radio DJ who popularized the term "rock and roll" in the 1950s.
Just reading the track list gives you their "résumé of the ear." Clarence "Frogman" Henry's "Ain't Got No Home." "Mystery Train," known through Junior Parker and Elvis. Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come." Chuck Berry's "Promised Land." Rather than a refuge taken up when new songs would not come, it sounds like a ritual for confirming where they began.
There were complications, too. It is said that Robbie Robertson did not yet have enough new songs. When the well of creation runs thin for a while, a band returns to the question of what it loved when it started playing music. I would rather not call this a retreat. It seems to me an honest album of covers that re-solves roots music through the voices and ensemble of five people. Their experience settles quietly over the prayer and lightness of the originals, and the familiar songs show a slightly different expression.
Radio shapes the lives of boys. In the cotton fields of Arkansas and in the cities of Canada alike, boys listened to the same radio. Boys bathed in the same signal across a border would later form a single band. I think Moondog Matinee is an album dedicated to the very first memory of that community called The Band.
1974 became, once again, "the Dylan year" for them. Dylan's album Planet Waves, released at the start of the year, was a collaboration with The Band, and then Dylan and The Band reunited for a North American tour, their first in eight years. The relationship that had met with booing in 1966 was now wrapped in enormous cheering. The document of it is the double live album Before the Flood. The same two names, separated by years, stood side by side in an entirely different atmosphere. That fact alone shows how far rock history had traveled.
Listen to Before the Flood and you notice that, even for the same songs, the direction of the sound is different from the 1966 recordings. The roar that was once played in the midst of booing, almost with its back to the crowd, is here played to face the audience. Dylan and The Band had both passed through that era, grown a little rounder, and grown stronger. That change gives a song like "Like a Rolling Stone" an entirely different landscape.
After the tour, the band set up a base in California. In Malibu they built their own studio, Shangri-La. From the woods of Woodstock to the West Coast looking out over the Pacific. The move was not just a change of address but a change in the band's very air. The next album recorded there would be their last full glow.
💔 "Northern Lights – Southern Cross" — The Last Great Glow
In June 1975, "The Basement Tapes," long passed around as bootlegs, was finally released officially under the names of Dylan and The Band. The sound of the Big Pink basement that we touched on in Chapter 1 had, after eight years, become a proper release. It was a strange coincidence, one story quietly closing.
That November, The Band released Northern Lights – Southern Cross, their first collection of new songs in four years, since Cahoots. It was recorded at their own Shangri-La studio on up-to-date 24-track equipment, which allowed Garth Hudson to layer instruments in many strata. It is said to have taken longer to make than any previous album of theirs, and the freedom to work at their own pace shows in the quality.
Listen and you see five musicians a little tired, yet seasoned. "It Makes No Difference" is a song of parting carried by Rick Danko's heart-tearing voice, with Robbie's guitar and Garth's saxophone winding around each other like two sobs. The reason I want to call this album their "last glow" is the almost-collapsing beauty of that song. "Ophelia" became one of Levon Helm's signature songs: a story told over light horns, tinged with melancholy, which reached the charts as well.
This album also opens up in a way that is not only about sadness. Robbie's guitar shows a different expression from before. He does not play flashily; he places just a few notes into the gaps of the song, and those few notes decisively change the emotion. The solo on "It Makes No Difference" is, I think, the finest example. The guitar does not weep. By not weeping, it seems all the more to be weeping. When Rick's voice bares its grief, Robbie's guitar takes on the role of receiving it quietly.
And at the core of the album is "Acadian Driftwood." In 1755, French-speaking Acadians were driven from their homeland by the British. Robbie had told stories of the American South superbly, but here he turns his eyes to a tragedy of his own homeland, Canada. The structure in which Richard, Levon, and Rick take turns singing is like the voices of the scattered people themselves. A song like "Forbidden Fruit," which confronts the problem of addiction that was eating at the band, also tells us that this is not an album of simple enjoyment.
"Northern Lights" are the aurora in the northern sky; "Southern Cross" is the constellation in the southern sky. Four musicians from Canada, one from the American South. It also sounds as though the five of them were being compared to northern and southern skies. This is only my personal interpretation, but listening with that idea in mind, the whole album begins to look like a single star chart. After this album, praised as the best since The Band, Robbie already carried a decision in his chest.
🕯️ "The Last Waltz" — The Legendary Farewell Concert of 1976
In the autumn of 1976, Robbie Robertson decided to put a stop to the band's touring life. Counting from the Hawks days, it had been about twenty years of nearly unbroken road. Later, in the film, Robbie talks about how many great musicians the road had taken — Hank Williams, Buddy Holly, Otis Redding, Janis, Jimi, Elvis. If they kept running, the same would happen to them. That must have been the fear.
It is said, though, that what Robbie wanted to end was the touring, not the band itself. Stepping off the stage and continuing to write songs in the studio was surely a path in his mind. For five men who had spent nearly twenty years together, however, "stopping touring" meant almost the same thing as pulling out the root of being a band.
Not everyone felt the same way. For Levon Helm in particular, this "final stage" is said to have stayed with him as a bitter memory for years afterward. That rift would cast a long shadow over the relationship between the two men. Behind the celebration, there was friction that could not be avoided. Knowing that, "The Last Waltz" sounds all the more urgent.
November 25, 1976, Thanksgiving night. The Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco. The promoter Bill Graham served a turkey dinner to 5,000 people, and afterward dancing began to the Berkeley Promenade Orchestra. The hall was dressed with set pieces from the San Francisco Opera, and even chandeliers were hung. As the name "Waltz" suggests, this was not a funeral but a ball. I think it was a statement of intent: they wanted to meet the parting not as sorrow but as a celebration.
Around nine that night, The Band opened with "Up on Cripple Creek" and played eleven songs with horns arranged by Allen Toussaint. Then the guests began to appear, one after another: Ronnie Hawkins, Dr. John, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Neil Diamond, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters, Paul Butterfield, Ringo Starr, Ronnie Wood, Eric Clapton, and Bob Dylan. It was a lineup in which the streams of American music seemed to have gathered into a single night.
The guest list has its own story. Ronnie Hawkins was the mentor from the apprenticeship days when the five were still "the Hawks." Muddy Waters embodied the source of the music The Band had always honored, as the king of Chicago blues. Van Morrison was the old friend who had joined voices on Cahoots. And Dylan was where it all began. So this was more than a glamorous gathering; it was a reunion in which the characters of The Band's story all stood together once more.
Joni Mitchell sang "Coyote," from the Hejira album she had released that same year, and quietly added harmony from the wings on Neil Young's "Helpless." Dylan sang "Forever Young," and at the end nearly everyone lined up on stage to sing "I Shall Be Released" together. The song that had been etched into Music from Big Pink in Richard Manuel's falsetto became a hymn of farewell.
Among the performances captured in the film, the one that moves me most is "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." Levon's voice sings a story of history told from the side of the defeated in the Civil War, like an eyewitness. The sense that a voice can become historical testimony, which we touched on in Chapter 1, lives on unchanged on the night of the breakup. Even after seven years, the voice stands in the same place with the same weight.
Whenever I watch footage of that night, my eyes go to the five faces. They seem to be smiling, and yet they also seem to be gazing somewhere far away. In the middle of a great celebration, they alone are a little quiet.
🎬 Martin Scorsese's Film — The Record of "The Last Waltz"
In 1978, the record of that night became the film The Last Waltz. The director was Martin Scorsese, whom Robbie had chosen himself, drawn by the way music is used in Mean Streets. Scorsese shot the concert on 35mm film with seven cinematographers, among them László Kovács and Vilmos Zsigmond. According to production materials, it is considered the first music documentary shot on 35mm. At the opening, a single line is held on screen: this film should be played loud.
What makes the film remarkable is that it weaves several "other kinds of time" into the record of the concert. Interviews with the members, with Scorsese himself asking the questions: Levon talks about his boyhood and the traveling shows he remembers, and Robbie talks about the fatigue of the long life on the road. The scenes of the Staple Singers performing "The Weight" and Emmylou Harris singing "Evangeline" were filmed separately after the concert, on a constructed stage set. The heat of the concert and the stillness of the studio: that contrast gives the film its distinctive breathing.
Neil Young's "Helpless" comes with a famous anecdote. In a screening of the nearly finished film, someone noticed a lump of cocaine hanging from Young's nostril. Young's manager went so far as to say the song could not be used, and the production team turned to a special effects company and devised a new image process to remove it. Knowing that Joni Mitchell is quietly adding harmony from the wings just outside the frame, the scene seems to hold both the light and the shadow of 1970s rock in a single picture.
Of course, this film is not a "complete record." During editing, Robbie and Scorsese are said to have lived in the same house, and the other members felt that this made Robbie's presence in the film too large. Levon was one of them. The film is a "beautiful testimony" edited from a single narrator's point of view, not the testimony of all five. Knowing that bias, you may find different meanings in both the calm of Robbie's narration and the bitter silence of Levon.
The film also fixed the memory of The Band in a way that cannot be overlooked. Many in later generations meet them first through this film, before the albums. The story of "the last ball" is edited so beautifully that it tints the whole picture of their music with the color of a farewell story. That is both a merit and a slight skew. If the film made you love them, please come back to Music from Big Pink, to The Band, and to Northern Lights – Southern Cross. There you will find the five before the farewell, when nothing had yet ended.
In 1978 a three-LP soundtrack was also released, and the film is still spoken of today as one of the greatest concert films ever made. When you watched The Last Waltz, whose scene stayed with you most?
🔄 After the Breakup — Five Separate Roads
"The Last Waltz" was "the last ball," but the band's formal exit was in fact a little more hurried. To fulfill a contract, Islands was released the following year, 1977. Often described as a patchwork, it looks like a small footprint left behind as the band quietly signed off in a place away from the film's glory.
From there, the five began to walk their separate paths. Robbie turned to film music. Levon appeared as an actor in Coal Miner's Daughter (1980) and The Right Stuff (1983), and Garth Hudson lent his mastery to sessions for Van Morrison, Leonard Cohen, and Emmylou Harris. Rick Danko made solo records and also worked in a trio with Jonas Fjeld and Eric Andersen. I think it was a time when each of them was re-measuring his distance from music in his own place.
The nearly seven years between the breakup and the reunion were, for the members, a time in which they let go of "being a band." Each tasted, in his own way, both the difficulty and the freedom of standing alone. That made the 1983 reunion more than nostalgia: it meant "gathering again for a different reason." A Band without Robbie could not possibly sound as it once had. But having accepted that it would not sound the same, they set out on the road again.
Levon candidly laid out his complicated feelings about his relationship with Robbie and about The Last Waltz in his 1993 autobiography, This Wheel's on Fire. The torment of Richard Manuel, whom we met in Chapter 1, deepened after the breakup. In 1983, The Band re-formed without Robbie. The tour, which began in small clubs, extended even to Japan, and a recording from Tokyo survives. But in 1986 Richard Manuel took his own life in the middle of a tour. Even so, the band kept going around Levon, Rick, and Garth, and in the 1990s left three albums: Jericho, High on the Hog, and Jubilation. In 1994 they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Then, on December 10, 1999, Rick Danko died peacefully in his sleep at his home in Woodstock. The history of the reunited Band quietly ended there. Levon was already in the midst of another ordeal, his fight against throat cancer. The next section is that story.
🍁 Levon Helm's Return — "Dirt Farmer" and the Glow of His Final Years
In 1998, Levon Helm was diagnosed with throat cancer. For a man for whom singing was both work and life itself, it amounted to a sentence of losing his voice. After surgery and radiation, the voice was nearly gone. A fire had destroyed his home in 1991, medical bills weighed on the household, and he was pressed financially as well.
But Helm did not let go of music. In January 2004, in a studio converted from the barn at his home in Woodstock, he began a small series of shows he called the "Midnight Ramble." The name comes from the traveling shows he had seen as a boy. Musicians and friends gathered, and the barn became a little concert hall. It was partly for income, and partly a place to stay connected to fellow musicians. In that atmosphere, the voice slowly came back.
In 2007, Helm released Dirt Farmer, his first solo studio album in twenty-five years. The title calls to mind his own roots, born into a cotton-farming family in Arkansas. Built on Appalachian folk, country, and blues, the album was recorded with family and friends, and a voice that was raspy yet had gained depth sounded astonishingly natural. It won the Grammy for Best Traditional Folk Album. The next album, Electric Dirt (2009), became the first winner of the newly created Best Americana Album category, and Ramble at the Ryman (2011), capturing a concert at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, won in the same category. Three Grammys in roughly five years. It was the period in which the man who had "lost his voice" received his strongest recognition.
What surprised me about Dirt Farmer was not that the voice had "returned," but that it had "changed." It is not the open, soaring Southern voice of his youth. It is a voice in which something once broken has taken a new shape while still carrying its wounds. A wounded voice sometimes says more than a flawless one. Helm did not recover what he had lost; he turned what remained after the loss into music.
The Midnight Ramble of June 2011 was joined by Mavis Staples. Remembering that the Staple Singers had sung "The Weight" at Winterland thirty-five years earlier, this reunion feels like a moment when a circle of time quietly closes. The recording of that night was released in 2022 as Carry Me Home.
On April 19, 2012, Levon Helm died at age seventy-one. The cause was cancer of the throat. His wake was held in his barn, and about two thousand people came. He was laid to rest in the Woodstock cemetery, beside Rick Danko.
Helm, who carried bitterness from "The Last Waltz," built a "band" again, after the breakup, in his own barn. Thinking of it that way, the Midnight Ramble of his final years looks like proof that the community called The Band was continuing in a different form. Even when the voice was lost, the music was not. I think that is Levon Helm's largest bequest.
🌿 Robbie Robertson's Legacy — Solo Work and Film Music
After "The Last Waltz," Robbie Robertson never went on tour again. But he did not leave music. The bond with Scorsese formed through "The Last Waltz" led him into the world of film music. Raging Bull, The King of Comedy, The Color of Money, Casino, Gangs of New York, The Departed, Shutter Island, The Wolf of Wall Street, Silence, The Irishman — he supported the music of Scorsese's films for many years, and Killers of the Flower Moon in 2023 became his fourteenth film music project.
He also left important work as a solo artist. His first solo album, Robbie Robertson (1987), was co-produced with Daniel Lanois and featured U2, Peter Gabriel, and even Rick Danko and Garth Hudson. The opening "Fallen Angel" is a song dedicated to Richard Manuel, who had died the year before, with Gabriel's voice nestling beside it like a ghost. "Somewhere Down the Crazy River" is said to have grown out of his memory of first visiting the Mississippi Delta as a teenager after joining the Hawks. The album was named Album of the Year at the 1989 Juno Awards.
His later solo work strongly reflected his Mohawk heritage on his mother's side. Within him there always lived both "a boy from Canada" and "a teller of American stories." I think that duality was the secret of The Band's music.
His film work, I think, was in fact continuous with The Band's aesthetic. The Band's songs were always like short films, drawing scene, character, and air. The battlefield of "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" and the road of exile in "Acadian Driftwood" both raise images in the listener's mind. Never saying too much, leaving blank space, letting the listener imagine: that craft likely became, in Scorsese's images, music that supports the emotion of scenes without dialogue. Even after leaving the stage, Robbie remained a teller of stories.
Here I want to think a little about the rift between Robbie and Levon. Robbie wrote many of the songs and spread The Band's story to the world through the film. Levon and the others, on the other hand, carried the feeling that it was five voices and five pairs of hands that made that sound. Neither was simply right, and neither simply wrong. Remove either the excellent songs or the performances that gave them life, and The Band's music would not exist.
In 2016 he published his memoir Testimony, and in 2019 the documentary Once Were Brothers, tracing his and The Band's path, was released. It feels like work driven by a quiet persistence in retelling the story from his own point of view. The title — once were brothers — captures in a phrase not only the pain of his relationship with Levon but the familial closeness all five had felt toward one another.
On August 9, 2023, Robbie Robertson died in Los Angeles at age eighty, after a long illness. Scorsese mourned him as one of his closest friends and a constant in his life and work. Joni Mitchell, too, remembered him as a fellow Canadian and a treasured collaborator. Across genres and borders, he was a musician loved by a great many people, and I am reminded of that again.
⭐ What The Band Left Behind — An Enduring Map of American Music
On January 21, 2025, Garth Hudson died peacefully in his sleep at a care facility in Woodstock. He was eighty-seven, the last surviving original member of The Band. He had been the last to join the Hawks. Trained in classical music, he reportedly made it a condition of joining that an organ be bought for him, and that he be paid an extra ten dollars a week in exchange for giving the other members music lessons. The oldest of the five, he was the one quietly adjusting the colors behind everything, from the atmosphere of "The Weight" to the majestic organ of "Chest Fever."
With Garth's death, all five of the original members were gone. Richard Manuel (1986). Rick Danko (1999). Levon Helm (2012). Robbie Robertson (2023). And Garth Hudson (2025).
Yet their music keeps "coming back to life." They entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. Garth was also honored with the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Order of Canada. Above all, there is no doubt that the five in that basement are among the deepest headwaters of the stream we now call "Americana" — music that renews the storytelling of roots music with a rock sensibility. That Levon Helm won the very first Grammy for Best Americana Album, in a newly created category, feels like a symbol of that fact.
The greatest gift The Band left, I think, was the sense that "a band is a community of voices and hands." No one is the lead; no one is merely accompaniment. Five people listen to each other, give way, sometimes collide, and carry a single song "together." That lines up exactly with the picture in "The Weight" of people sharing a burden.
If you are about to start listening to The Band, begin with "The Weight." Then "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." Then "It Makes No Difference." Those three songs reveal their three faces: community, history, and sorrow. For those who want to go deeper, I recommend the live album Rock of Ages and the film The Last Waltz. There you will find the breathing of the five that the studio albums could not show.
One more thing: The Band became a band that "transcended its time by defying it." Turning their backs on the glitter of psychedelia and re-solving old songs in a basement, they were free from the lifespan of fashion. "The Weight" still sounds fresh more than half a century later because it never aimed at "now" in the first place. Only music made toward its own time grows old with the passing of that time.
For me, the story of The Band is also a story about "how to part." The night of the breakup was a celebration. But the long years that followed held rifts, illness, and loss. Even so, the music of the five keeps sounding unchanged after each one's death. What is your song by The Band?
___ ___
The five who gathered in the late 1950s as Ronnie Hawkins's band, after their journey with Dylan, made "Big Pink" in a Woodstock basement and rewrote the map of 1960s music with two albums. Then in the 1970s, they swayed under the weight of success and wandered, yet shone on Rock of Ages, cast their last light on Northern Lights – Southern Cross, and parted like a ball on "The Last Waltz."
In the forty-odd years that followed, they walked through rifts, illness, and loss, each at his own stride. When the last of them departed in 2025, I think the five from that basement had finally all returned into the music.
"Take a load off, Fanny" — take the weight off, and put the load on me. The chorus of that song is ringing somewhere today. That is the proof that the community called The Band is still here. 🍁
