I'm a Mule long-timer, but before the Columbus Matrix
earlier this year, I hadn't seen or recorded them in
seven years, mainly due to not really enjoying the
"bottom end" after Woody was gone. With the new bottom
so dynamic and loud(and "Thunderbirdy"), my interest
has been renewed.
The last onstage recording I uploaded of Gov't Mule
(Carbondale 1999) was downloaded over 1000 times
between this site and Dime, which was surprising 
considering that a SB circulates of that gig. Thanks 
for all the cool feedback on that, it makes all those
hours standing before doors open and afterwards before the
show starts feel a bit more worthwhile.
 
The taper Godz and Gremlins must have conspired against
Z-man and myself on this night(my 42nd B-day) in Michigan.
I myself was in a perfect spot to make a great capture, but
my buzzed butt forgot to erase the show already on my DR-1,
so my 1rst set ended abruptly around the 40 minute mark.
Needless to say I was crushed beyond words at my mistake.
My 2nd set came out complete and stunningly great, but it
would have been kind of pointless to upload it had Z-man not
had some issues with his 2nd set. So here it is. The sound is
amazing, All instruments are very present, but Warren's 
guitar(straight from his amps) is king here. Just crushing.
It is also a different vantage point to check out the new guy,
as most of what you hear(and feel) is direct from his rig as 
well. Very minimal and distant crowd noise for this type of 
recording. Enjoy!
