UMPHREY'S McGEE - 9/28/10 El Rey Theater,
Albuquerque, NM




First New Mexico appearance ever!

Dude, their secret weapon is TOTALLY bassist Ryan Stasik! Never had the chance to see them live before, but definitely plan to see them again (^_^)

Download the show here. Particularly worthy are the jam during The Triple Wide, and the second encore, Come Closer (which is a brilliant mash-up of The Beatles and Nine Inch Nails).

I can only hope the download sounds better than the room did. All bass and echo.

ROAD REPORT - 2ND ANNUAL TAOS MOUNTAIN MUSIC FESTIVAL

With their new bassist, Jorgen Carlsson, laying it down Allen Woody-style, Gov’t Mule blew us all away at the 2nd Annual Taos Mountain Music Festival over Labor Day weekend. Yonder Mountain String Band, Shemekia Copeland, Radio la Chusma, and Mia Borders were no slouches either.

Highlights from the Mule’s heavier-than-thou set included a truly amazing re-working of Zep’s “Whole Lotta Love” inside an epic, set-closing “Mule,” during which Warren Haynes flubbed the first chorus. Maybe it was the altitude (9200 feet y’all). A guest appearance from Shemekia Copeland gave the Mule a chance to show off their blues chops on “That’s What Love Will Make You Do;” and their recent single, “Broke Down on the Brazos,” got a chance to open up and breathe fire, even without ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons (who added his flair to the studio track). Check out the whole set list and/or order a recording of the show for your collection at mule.net

Gov’t Mule has never been an easy band to classify. I hereby dub them, “Psychedelic Trucker Rock.”

Read Toast’s recent interview with Mule’s bandleader Warren Haynes in its entirety now at jambands.com
