Thu 6 Aug – Gov't Mule
This event was awesome, we got there in the middle of a jam, fairly well medicated :-) and immediately got to the dancing. We only caught the last half hour or so and the last four songs. We came in the middle of "I Am A Ram" and the jam was awesome. Warren looked was not only wailing away on his Firebird but looked like he was having an awesome time playing which got the audience that much more into it.

The crowd was packed in past the taping microphones and the mixed crowd of bikers, hippies, and hicks as well as some random people that most likely just showed up to drink was fascinating and they all got into it.

Next they played "Mule>I've Been Working>Mule" before leaving the stage on the screaming audience. They soon after took to the stage again playing a mellow and thoroughly enjoyable encore of "Into The Mystic" and "Soulshine," the latter dedicated to Brother Wease. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brother_Wease) We left the show having seen a very small part of the set list but having gotten our Mule on with full satisfaction. A very enjoyable show, if they come to town; don't miss.
