TONY MARKELIS!

[@PolburnProductions]

If you didn’t see the whole show, Trey gives a long thanks to everyone involved at the end of the last song and forgets to mention Tony. This clip picks up after Trey is done. Love how Tony brings it up and Treys rebound. Tony’s banter over the Beacon jams was classic. Sad to see a member of the Trey family depart. He was such an key piece to the whole. RIP Tony!

[@jeremywoodsonloanofficer]

Was this the last song Tony played with TAB??

[@m0sesdewitt]

@@jeremywoodsonloanofficer sadly, yes.

[@justsomerandomdude6113]

I am so happy watch this again but absolutely crushed watching this now knowing I never get to see Tony slap out his amazing bass lines again. Rest in peace brother.

Tony Markellis is one of the coolest people to have ever walked the Earth. Full stop.

[@capedoc]

RIP - Tony. Thanks for all the good times.

[@ericbroggi6151]

RIP TONY AND JAMES!!!

[@erniecf]

Thank you for your gift, Tony. You are a true groove merchant, RIP

[@justsomerandomdude6113]

So the first time I saw TAB was in 1999 at the state theater in Portland Maine, Trey did a solo first set that was very intimate and personal. The second set was the first time I ever heard/saw Tony. This is the song that they opened that set with and I ams till to this day blown away by what I heard. They have obviously dialed in this song since then but honestly it was just absolute fire the first time I saw it live. Thanks for everything!!!!

[@neuhausa]

Release that full tour, Kevin Shapiro!

[@matthewcollins5344]

Mine was that same tour when it came thru Blacksburg, Va🙏.

[@richardvining9860]

Saw that tour in St. Louis! Amazing night.

[@GeoffreyBangers]

First time for me was at Higher Ground, Winooski, VT in the late 90s. Never the same after that. Still my favorite tune. I'll never forget being eye level with the band, Tony leaning back and thumping his fingers over and over again on his bass strings. Totally fucking epic.

[@STANLEY2BRICKS]

Yep first time I saw TAB was also that '99 tour at Thomas Wolf centre in Asheville NC. Good times good times

[@harryhood8840]

Thanks for sharing... RIP Tony... much love

[@Tognar]

Now that is HOLDING IT TF DOWN! #RIP Tony. P

[@elaztec.aztecca]

Yes, Tony was the pulse, the pump, the pop and the shuffle. I’m so sad that he’s no longer ‘with us’ but his legacy is incredibly amazing and prolific. Trey, and all of us were so ridiculously blessed to have his participation and his love of music to enjoy. RIP Tony.

[@stacybenstockklein449]

Lol, I was just listening to first tube from June beacon and I came here to watch Trey as well and first tube was the first song that popped up. So grateful! 💚🙌

[@kevinsellers5243]

What a weird era of treys music life So epic

[@CosmicHarmony78]

Thanks for the groove Tony RIP brother.

[@anthonydonaldson5304]

Worthy of much praise - Is what you just did for Tony and that’s what Anthony actually means. That was an absolute horn bag of beauty from The Beacon. We danced DownUnder 💃🏼🇦🇺🕺🏻

[@markbosky]

Rest easy big guy. Won't be the same without you holding it down. The legacy lives on!

[@tonystfa]

This clip is the definition of bittersweet - so joyful but yet so sad too - so glad you posted this! It gives me a "happy ache" (a term my then 3 year old son used to use for just such a thing!).

[@futuragrabados9458]

Hoy en dia para mi uno de los mas grandes, conjuntamente con su banda. Saludos desde Argentina, pais que nunca podrá ver a estos artistas.

[@jonathannoyes4932]

A fucked up year for sure, but there was a light in the distance. Thanks Beacon...thanks TAB....and, as always - thanks Trey for it all. Rest In Peace Tony. We'll see you on the other side...

groove master. rip tony

[@kcmule]

Seek the out-of-print CD "Big Joe Burrell Featuring the Unknown Blues Band: Live at Hunts" it's one of the most listenable recordings in my whole collection. Tony's rock solid bass lines are the perfect engine for Big Joe's larger-than-life sound. RIP Meat Man
