After the tragic death of bassist Allen Woody in August 2000, Warren Haynes and Matt Abts decided to soldier on with Gov't Mule, recruiting David Schools as their new bass player. The Spring 2001 tour was dubbed the New School Of Mule, a play of the new bassist's name and also a reflection of the fact that the band was entering a new stage. In the midst of that spring run, Warren took a night to play an acoustic show in Atlanta, on May 6, 2001, 22 years ago today, as captured in this FM broadcast.  It wasn;t long into the set, though, that his Gov't Mule bandmates joined hiom on stage, for a unique performance that included covers of Van Morrisons And It Stoned Me and Into The Mystic, as well as U2's One.

In 1994, Warren Haynes and bassist Allen Woody of The Allman Brothers launched a side project called Gov’t Mule. Haynes and Woody, who were fans of power trios such as Cream and the Jimi Hendrix Experience, recruited Matt Abts to handle the drums. The new band, affectionately known to its fans as The Mule, released their self titled debut album in October 1995. This soundboard recording captures The Mule about 3 months after the release of that disc, on January 14, 1996, 27 years ago today, in Fort Myers.
