Gov’t Mule is currently truckin’ along, mid-way through their massive ‘By A Thread Winter 2010 Tour‘. The tour kicked off on January 20th in Fort Lauderdale, FL just 2 days after the conclusion of the band’s first ever ‘Island Exodus’ in Negril, Jamaica. This tour covers serious ground and has already made stops in Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Ohio (all in a little over a week). Upcoming big tour stops include The House of Blues in Cleveland and Chicago AND Dallas, The Pageant in St. Louis, The Filmore in Devner, and Stubb’s Amphitheater in Austin among many others. It’s touring like this that earns Warren Haynes and the Mule Crew serious respect in the Jam Scene and reinforce Warren’s reputation as the hardest working man in Jam.

Check out this fun and eclectic Mule show from Thursday night at the Ryman in Nashville, TN. Mule busted out some rare covers like ‘The Shape I’m In’ (The Band), ‘Ventilator Blues’ (Rolling Stones), and ‘When The Music’s Over’ (The Doors) along w/ more oft-played cover tunes ‘Dear Prudence’ (Beatles), ‘Cortez The Killer’ (Neil Young). Three of these coveres – Ventilator, Dear Prudence, and Cortez – featured guest sit-ins by Audley Freed, guitarist from the Black Crowes.
