Update: Watch Gov’t Mule and Jack Pearson Treat Macon to Some Allman Brothers Band – 4/26/2019 AUD

Thanks to Jim Kelly and Dennis Orr for the recording! Jim had to educate the security at the Macon City Auditorium about how Mule allowed taping. He missed “Grinnin’ In Your Face” and part of “Mule” as a result.

After a two-night stand at the Georgia Theater in Athens, the Mule marched into Macon—home to the Allman Brothers Band. Warren, former Allman Brothers Band member couldn’t let the opportunity of being in Macon without making the evening special.

Before the show, Warren made a pitstop at the Big House to pick up Duane Allman’s Les Paul Goldtop to play for the evening.

After a classic Mule set, Warren invited another Allman Brothers Band alumni to the stage for the entire second set. Guitarist Jack Pearson joined Mule for an entire second set for a celebration of the Allman Brothers Band.

Of the eight ABB tunes, River Alph was able to get some great footage of two including smokin’ renditions of “Blue Sky” and “Whipping Post.”

Listen to Gov’t Mule Play Killer Show Down a Drummer in Milwaukee – 4/18/2019 AUD

Gov’t Mule is on the road in the heartland of America this week. Last week, the Mule rolled into Milwaukee short one drummer. Matt Abts sat out the show due to illness.

While most bands might postpone or cancel the show due to a band member illness, Warren and the rest of the Mule took the opportunity to flex their musical muscles and put on one hell of a show.

Without their drummer, the band performed a couple of tunes without drums, a couple of Warren Haynes solo tunes and a rotating cast of band members on drums and percussion. Rachel “Stixx” Turner also sat in on drums towards the end of the show.

Mule took the opportunity without their normal line-up to have some fun with their setlist and played nearly all covers. One of the coolest configurations of the evening included Jorgen on drums and Danny on bass for a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s “Red House” and Howlin’ Wolf’s “Smokestack Lightning.”
