Listen to Phil Lesh and The Q’s Finale at the Capitol Theater – 10/13/2021 AUD

Phil Lesh returned last night to the Cap with his first group of Friends for the final show in the first of three 3-show runs. Phil’s crew for the first run of shows is better known as The Q which includes John Molo, Rob Barraco, Jimmy Herring and Warren Haynes.

This show was my first time back at the Cap since the pandemic shut down live music last year. Phil and The Q came out swinging with a strong first set “Help on the Way > Slipknot!” Phil pocketed “Franklin’s Tower” for later in the second set and Warren lead the band in a raging cover of “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds.”

The second set was pretty much all fire from the opening “Scar > Fire” to the set ending “Franklin’s Tower.” The Q reprised “Low Spark Of High-Heeled Boys” from earlier in the run and sneaked in a cover of “I Am the Walrus”—the second Beatles tune of the evening. The standout from the set was Warren leading the band in a jaw-dropping rendition of “Stella Blue.”

Listen to Warren Haynes Perform “Cortez the Killer” and “Hallelujah” at South Farms – 9/12/2020 AUD

Warren Haynes announced a pair of socially distanced shows, his first since the COVID shutdown for this weekend at South Farms in Morris, CT. The two shows sold out in no time and Warren quickly announced more for October.

The shows feature Warren with support from Gov’t Mule keyboardist Danny Louis. To say it was incredible to see Warren back on stage would be an understatement. Warren treated the fans on the farm to 20 songs over two sets and an encore. The show featured some of Warren’s favorite covers such as Neil Young’s “Cortez the Killer” and Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”

Thankfully Sean Roche was in attendance and a couple of tapers including johnt569. Sean got some great footage of the “Cortez the Killer” encore and “Scared to Live > Hallelujah.”

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.”
