"We are trying to get a good idea of the number of people coming," reads the Facebook event page created late Tuesday. "Everyone is invited to celebrate the life of our brother Dan!!"

Nicknamed “Dangerous Dan,” Toler’s by turns fiery and fluid guitar playing can be heard on acclaimed albums by the Allman Brothers Band, Gregg Allman Band and Dickey Betts & Great Southern.

 

A Celebration of Life for Dan Toler will take place 1 p.m. March 9 at Faith Sarasota, 1201 N. Beneva Road; (941) 955-7074; faithsarasota.org
