A Look Back ~ Mt. Jam III ~ 2007

Gov't Mule ~ 6.02.07

The Second of two Mule shows at Mountain Jam III left jammers on the slopes breathless. The host band would rip through two rockin' sets featuring surprise sit-ins with artists that played earlier in the day.

The show opened up with Michael Franti joining the band to lend his vocal acrobatics to the Stones "Play with Fire".

"Gameface" segued in and out of "Mountain Jam" to make a "Gameface" sandwich.

Later in the first set, Jake Cinninger from Umphrey's McGee traded licks with Warren on "That's What Love Will Make You Do"

The second set was nearly flawless, featuring Ozomatli's horn players Uli Bella (sax) and Asdru Sierra (trumpet) for James Brown's "It's A Man's World."

Later in the set Tea Leaf Green's Josh Clark joined Mule for the hard driving Neil Young classic "Keep on Rocking in the Free World."

Warren and the boys would put a sweet cherry on the first two days of Mt. Jam III with the heart wrenching encore of "Out of the Rain" -> "I'll Be the One" -> "Can't Always Get what You Want" -> "I'll Be The One Reprise." - What a night... what a festival!
