Gov't Mule - Wake Up Dead (Live at Soundcheck)

[@ronaldsmith1484]

..... Absolutely the greatest rock musician in the last 30 years.... He carries the torch high and proud!...... Underrated to others in the world..... But well known to those of us that are in the know

[@easychenmr]

I totally agree with you, and ever since I heard the Mules for the first time, I'm constantly spreading their awesome music by sharing to open the ears of many others 😎✌️❤️

[@nojnoj3069]

Me too!..... Superior musicians by far.

[@temporarysaint740]

Ron Smith speaks the truth !!

[@johnmurray1525]

definitely, i have seen them 12years in a row before covid New Year's Eve at beacon theatre NYC it's a standing date

[@fabfore4]

Amen!! The man is gifted beyond belief

[@pondgazer1]

Doesn't get any better than this. Warren and the band make it look easy. Sooooooooooooo good.

[@easychenmr]

I just can't get enough of listening to the unique voice of Warren Haynes, so rich and full, packed with emotions, perfect harmonies, rough and smooth simultaneously, a man's voice at it's very best AND accompanied by the brilliant backbone of the Mules it's World Class!! 👌❤️

[@fabfore4]

And how about that guitar playing?! Warren is so fucking talented.

[@easychenmr]

@@fabfore4 True!!!!!!!

[@PixelatedSpirit]

10/10 absolutely love this song! Been playing the studio version for weeks, can't get enough!

[@jluther1755]

Saw Mule the first time at the alternative pub in Asheville NC when Woody was still alive. Saw a bunch of shows saw a dozen Warren Haynes Christmas jams. I've lived on Big Island Hawaii for 8 years now. All I have is U Tube videos and all those great memories. Warren Haynes ain't gonna play Big Island Hawaii anytime soon and no one else is either. Go to the shows while you can cause you never know when the last one you see will be✨🤙

[@temporarysaint740]

J Luther. Why wont anyone play where you are? Thats a shame.

[@gw5309]

Amen brother. My wife and I really want to see him before that happens. Would really like to catch him in Ashville sometime. We are only about a five hour drive away. Interesting point (for us anyway); Warren is five days older than my wife)

[@jackwyatt1218]

nice

[@jefflancaster4423]

Alternative pub huh? The one on Patton Avenue? In Asheville? NC? Your making things up J Luther. 😂 Aloha brother, from the WNC.

[@divakism]

My favorite track from the new album!

[@robbienewporter9281]

Been a fan since day # 1 when it was 3 piece power Trio. Check out The 1994 setlist. They had a hell of a lot of cover song and some of there own. I'm 70 and still rock with the best of them Warren Haynes, Woody, and Matt were the nicest individuals you ever want to meet. Beyond a doubt he's on My List for one of the top guitarist in my opinion. This band today is still kicking my old ass today. MULE IS MUSIC FOR YOUR ASS

[@frankwall5177]

These guys send me on a music “trip” every time I hear this manna for the soul.

[@pedrorobertomoraes2904]

What I find awesome is that this guy's are just "another day in the office"! Grooving and Jammin'! This so cool!

[@stevehilton5717]

Can Warren really get any better ? He is the King of Kewl 😁

[@bobschenkel7921]

More great footage from beautiful Bethlehem, Pa. in front of the blast furnaces. Come on back guys. Please.

[@jefflancaster4423]

Holy f Swearword i wish I could have been there to see Mule play in front of the sleeping giant. I'm glad Bethlehem did not tear the stacks down.

Hello from rural NSW Australia.

[@nojnoj3069]

Effortless and so gelled. Perfection!

[@GSDjrbites]

IMO: Warren is not under rated...he is highly rated and held in high regard by most who play and those who listen to him. Great player and has a booming blues voice. the mule just keeps on keeping on and always a great show.

[@ronaldsmith1484]

.... Cut the IMO s*** and speak like a man...... And yes Warren Haynes is underrated...... Your post doesn't make any sense

[@GSDjrbites]

@@ronaldsmith1484 ...how is he under rated? Because your mom doesnt know who he is? I shouldn't have taken the bait but since I did ...You dont make sense by saying he is under rated. That sentence is worn out. So and so is so under rated....well he makes a living playing his guitars and Jerry Garcia's guitars and is critically acclaimed amongst his peers so you think he should wear a crown or something? Obviously he is rated highly. Warren is one of the best guitarists going right now and history will be the judge of his rating. A better term would be he is lesser known to the commercial world as a guitar player but is a master of his craft. Highly rated by all who know who he is. You want to personally attack me because I think your comment is ignorant? GFY Ronnie. I bet you hear that a lot.

Once I got over this not being a Megadeth cover, I enjoyed checking back in with The Mule for the first time in quite awhile.

Btwn GM and ABB, I've seen Warren Haynes perform over 150 times...Govt Mule are arguably the best under-known band ever and I am privileged to have seen them since '94...and counting.

[@jobo-and-mo]

Every time this song comes up, “rewind” gets 2-3 slaps!

[@chriscandito1116]

Wondering what Kind of Pickups Warren has on that SG to give him such a Biteing Tone

[@bobbyosborne2375]

PAF's. Most of the tone is in the fingers and that SLO-100 and homestead in the backline. He used to use a Diaz years ago, but he retired it. But the SLO-100 has always been a staple of his sound.

[@bobbyosborne2375]

@Thrash Metal Studio dose and life before insanity has the best tone for me. Judicious use of a Leslie in those albums. I still love thrash...still love to play it. But warren is one of my top 5 favorite guitar players. He does no wrong in my eyes. Seen em live 3 times. Best show I've seen, between govt mule and gojira.

[@bobbyosborne2375]

@Thrash Metal Studio yes sir. First heard it in 2004. Changed my musical perspective to say the least. I went from chaosphere and nothing from meshuggah, to govt mule overnight. The mules been like therapy for me.

[@hugostahlbaum8714]

No matter what axemodel ol' Warren is beatin' up, always sounding like Mr.Haynes...

[@paullevine1813]

Hugo , Not sure if that SG is Warrens or Derek's just because if you haven't noticed the Neck pickup is backwards just like Gary Moore & Peter Greene's 59 Les Paul was. Out of phase . I have seen Derek play this same ax many times . Just a point of interest to guitarists & equipment geeks. I play so it's of interest to myself & your comment made me reply to yours . No other reason . And i do agree with what you said.

[@hugostahlbaum8714]

@@paullevine1813 Thx for your answer, Paul. It was the first time I saw Warren playing on that SG instead one of his Paulas or ES 335/345 and I know, Derek has 2 red ones, one with autographs and one without .He although plays a black one. When Warren takes his Firebird he sounds a little bit different, but still like Mr.Haynes😆. Kindly regards from Germany, Hugo.

[@paullevine1813]

@@hugostahlbaum8714 Hugo, The Black SG may be the one Dickey Betts gave him though I'm kind of guessing but Dickey & Duane shared a Black SG in the early days of the Allmans & i have seen Dickey play it in concert. On the guitars both Warren & Derek have are quite a few ,much more than you usually see. As a player myself I'm more than aware every guitar has it's own sound & your tone come mostly from your fingers less you cram a ton of effects into it . Seen both Warren & Derek with many other guitars & Warren even has a 12 string Les Paul !!! Hard to believe but the post of him with that is on YT here. He's playing with Govt. Mule doing this song . kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYjbi6VmrM-DZ6c . As i play guitar myself & you were kind enough to send a nice reply i would share with you some of my work though this is just an audio track i recorded in 87 ,i still play in 2022 . please feel free to leave a comment if you wish but do me one favor & leave them om my post not back hear as i sure could use the comments. So here are my track & one from the band i play in which was a demo of the classic Messin' With The Kid . I hope you will enjoy what you hear & stay safe over there in Europe ,I'm in the States so greetings from the USA. Hope we will see better days ahead here & where you are .

I gotta be honest, I was hoping for a bluesy version of Megadeth’s Wake Up Dead. This is just another fantastic Gov’t Mule performance

[@danaeverhart6487]

Hey Warren! Would you consider writing a song about the loss of my youngest son Andrew Everhart on 3/23/2022 last Wednesday from fentanyl? He leaves behind his daughter Karryghan Grace 41/2 years old. We buried him on the following Wednesday! Please! Dana E💫✌🏻😩✌🏻

[@patrickdoran180]

I was really hoping this was a cover of the Megadeth song.

[@voxac30withstrat]

Good to see at least some of the bass player. Those guys are often overlooked by the ones taking the footage. One half of the engine room. Music would be kinda empty without them.

[@voxac30withstrat]

I can't speak for the US but here in Australia we are pretty starved for this EXCELLENT music. There's only a small community radio station which only plays this sort of stuff for a couple of hours on a Monday afternoon. having said that ironically the Blues & Roots (and Rock) concerts here are huge. We have the Byron Bay Blues & Roots Festival which is massive BUT (and its a BIG BUT) unfortunately over the last few years they've been introducing more modern style artists.

[@jackwyatt1218]
