Watch Marcus King and Widespread Panic Destroy “Mountain Jam” in Mexico

Widespread Panic finished up their annual Panic en la Playa run at the Hard Rock in Riviera Maya last night. As with previous nights in the run, a guest joined WSP to jam on stage.

Listen to Widespread Panic and Friends’ Epic “Maggot Brain” in Riviera Maya – 1/27/2018 Full Show AUD

Dave School’s spilled the beans before last night’s finale and shared this picture of Jimmy Herring and Marcus King rehearsing on Facebook.

After another incredible two sets, Marcus King came to the stage to jam on a pair of songs to close out the second set. The first was a cover of “Nobody’s Fault But Mine” by Led Zeppelin and the second was a nearly 20-minute “Mountain Jam.” Thanks to MrTopdogger for the awesome footage!

While Widespread Panic only has a handful of dates on the calendar for 2018, Marcus King has an epic 2018 lined up. He is touring with his band and sharing a stage with Umphrey’s McGee and Tedeschi Trucks Band, joining forces with Chris Robinson for As the Crow Flies and a tour over seas.

Listen to the Entire 2017 Christmas Jam – 12/9/2017 Full Show AUD

Warren Haynes’ Annual Christmas Jam is one of the live music highlights of the entire year. An always stellar line-up plays 7+ hours of music that include tons of collaboration and once in a lifetime sit-ins. The 29th Annual Christmas Jam lived up to the hype and was incredible!

Instead of going through the sets one by one, a hero has emerged and delivered his entire seven hours and 29 minute recording of the show in a single playlist. A huge thanks to D. Fries for the excellent recording and his hard work to share this show!

Anytime a seven and a half hour show opens with Holly Bowling pounding out “St. Stephen” on the piano and ends 63 songs later with Gov’t Mule shredding on “Mule,” sign me up!

Watch Gov’t Mule Crush Allman Brothers Band’s “Dreams” & “Mountain Jam” in Chicago Finale

Gov’t Mule finished their US fall tour this weekend in Chicago. The end of their US tour doesn’t mean that the Mule will be quite for long. They start a European fall tour in less than a week before returning for their New Years run in Atlantic City and at the Beacon.

While former Allman Brother Band member, Derek Trucks was jamming on “Mountain Jam” with Trey Anastasio at the Beacon in NYC, Warren Haynes and the Mule did their own ABB tribute at the Riviera Theater in Chicago.

While the first set had a couple of covers, the second set and encore were cover heavy with four ABB songs including “Come and Go Blues,” “Dreams,” “Kind of Bird,” and “Mountain Jam.” While Gov’t Mule was born from the Allman Brothers Band and will commonly cover them, with the passing of Butch and Gregg this year, Warren’s ABB renditions have taken on new meaning and a new intensity.

I’m a Ram > Unblow Your Horn

Instant Classic: Listen to Gov’t Mule & Friends Pay Tribute to Allen Woody in Nashville – 8/26/2017 Full Show AUD

Gov’t Mule, specifically Warren Haynes, is no stranger to losing friends. After an emotional roller coaster this year from losing Butch Trucks and Gregg Allman, among others, Gov’t Mule reopened old wounds over the weekend at their show in Nashville. August 26th marked the 17th anniversary of Allman Brothers Band bassist and Gov’t Mule founding member, Allen Woody. The Mule wouldn’t let the day go by without drawing attention to their fallen brother.

Just as they did last summer, Blackberry Smoke has opened for Gov’t Mule a few shows this summer include the Nashville gig.

Things started to get interesting about halfway through the set. The first surprise of the set was former Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman and guitarist Audley Freed for the Crowes classic “Sometimes Salvation.”

Next up, former Allman Brothers Band guitarist and fellow bandmate of Haynes and Woody, Jack Pearson was welcomes to the stage for the dueling guitar masterpiece “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed.” Mule closed the set out with another Allman Brothers Band original and Warren Haynes favorite, “Soulshine.”

For the encore, Warren welcomed back out Pearson and Charlie Starr from Blackberry Smoke for “Melissa > Mountain Jam > Melissa.” The encore was similar to what they played at the Peach festival just last weekend, but the cast of characters had changed.
