mark tonin Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 I just got this email about the Gov't Mule setlist from last night in New Orleans ... the show they billed as "The Deepest End" ... this is pretty amazing, even just to think about: ---- New Orleans' Seanger Theatre hosted 13 - count 'em, 13 (well, 14 if you count the tuba player) -- bassists playing with the Boys to a full house for slightly less than six hours -- and the Mule managed to fit in three encores, to boot. No announcement was made about who the new bassist is to be. It's too late to provide anything more than the setlist to tonight's show.

Jaimoe Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Sonny Landreth! It takes a humble and ballsy guitarist like Warren to have someone as influental and talented as Sonny playing slide with the Mule on a couple of tunes. For modern slide guitarists, Sonny's in a class that includes only a few others - Ry Cooder, Roy Rogers, Johnny Winter and Derek Trucks. I wish I was there!

zimmerman pt3 Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 I love it how Jason Newstead is part of the Mule-Haynes posse! He's one cool dude (met him in '92) and he gets props for ditching Metallica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwa. Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Oh my lord!! Imagine being at that one. Hottest ticket in town for sure. The energy must have been through the roof that night too. I agree Newsted did well to get out of Metallica when he did, i saw him play in Ann Arbor with Mule and it was an intense, really rocking show. Lots of sabbath that night as well.

hamilton Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 The bassist from Los Lobos is named Conrad Lozano. The guitarist would have been either David Hidalgo or Cesar Rosas... Brian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeker Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Word on the street is that this show came in at just under 6 hours long, what a marathon!!! If I were to guess, I'd have to say Rzab will be announced as the new bassist, he seems to be the frontrunner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
