Legendary music man James Brown will lay in repose at the Apollo Theater in Harlem tomorrow. The Theater last night posted a tribute to Brown on its marquee. The body of Brown, who died Monday, will be returned to Augusta, Ga., for a private service on Friday. Meanwhile, the Times Square club where he was supposed to take the stage on New Year’s Eve is promising ticket holders a replacement show. The B.B. King Blues Club on West 42nd Street will announce today who will be filling the spot, said p.r. director Rena Siwek. Also, 1,400 tickets had been sold as of late last week for a show tonight at the Palace Theater in Waterbury, Conn.
