here is a quick rundown on the gov't mule show in cocoa, fl on the indian river.
the weather was great....here is a pic karen took when we were about 5 minutes away from the venue....the upside to the rain is it brought the temp down from 98 degrees (115 heat index) to about 75 degrees!
the concert started about an hour late because of the weather (it rained/drizzled almost the entire time but the lightning early on is what postponed the show)....the crowd was decent (there were more by the time mule went on)....that's my friend karen in the bottom left of the pic with the stylish poncho (we could have sold a bunch of them if we would have thought ahead)! who took me to the concert for my birthday (she is just as big a music/blues fan as i am)....
opening act was a local band called the bone dogs....they sounded great and seemed to have a decent local following....
jackie greene came on next (he is opening a lot of mule shows on the summer tour)....never heard of him but the boy can play (he's wearing the hat).....really enjoyed their set....he played the les paul junior the entire time....
warren haynes came on at about 7:25pm and played until 10:15 with no break/intermission....i'll add the playlist to the bottom of this post....played new stuff from "by a thread" along with some grateful dead tunes (it was jerry garcia's birthday) and ended the show with "wish you were here" possibly a message to jerry....warren played the usual arsenal of gibson guitars with the soldano amp head and ceasar diaz cd-100 prototype amp head....
