BATH — At one point in musical history, The Band was one of the most popular and influential rock groups in the world. Their last concert was so iconic that Martin Scorsese filmed it as the documentary entitled “The Last Waltz.” This epic concert attracted featured guests such as Van Morrison, Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton and other royalty of the 1960s and 1970s rock scene. At 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 29, local musicians will gather to recreate this classic concert at the Chocolate Church Arts Center, 804 Washington St.

Maine musicians from bands like The Boneheads, Maine Dead Project, Colwell Brothers, the Fogcutters and Dave Mallet’s back-up band perform songs from the film, appearing in character. Hearing a Joni Mitchell doppelganger perform “Coyote,” or a Neil Young stand-in sing “Helpless” will offer a nostalgic evening of live music.

While a full Thanksgiving dinner will not be served (5,000 guests attended the pre-show dinner at Winterland on Nov. 25, 1976), ticketholders will hear favorite songs like “Caravan,” “Baby, Let Me Follow You Down,” “Such a Night” and “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down,” among many others.

This time-traveling event usually sells out; advance tickets are advised. Tickets are $15 in advance, $17 at the door.
