Mule kicked off their fall Tour last weekend with a pair of shows – one in Indianapolis and one in Chicago. The Chicago show on Saturday night had the band really settling in and hitting the groove, mixing up new material from the recently released By A Thread with old Mule classics and, of course, some tasty covers. Jackie Greene is opening up this tour and has been joining the band for rockin’ encores including covers of Neil Young’s ‘Southern Man’, The Beatles ‘Don’t Let Me Down’, and the Mule/Greene Dead staple ‘Sugaree’ – and that’s just in the first 2 nights of the tour. The tour will culminate this Saturday in what promises to be an epic Halloween at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby, PA – featuring a set 2 Rolling Stones musical costume set plus what promises to be a fat set of Mule rockers to start things off. Look for a full review, dl, etc. after the show.
