Gov't Mule doing 'Dark Side Of The Mule' tour with Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Evening, rescheduled NYE shows

Gov’t Mule are reviving their Pink Floyd tribute show Dark Side Of The Mule on an amphitheater tour this summer. They’ll be joined on the road by Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening. The tour marks the last performances of Dark Side Of The Mule, which started in 2008. “This all started so organically with what we thought would be a one-time Halloween performance,” says guitarist and frontman Warren Haynes. “Since then, Dark Side of the Mule has grown into something else. It’s a blast to perform this material but our intent is to do it for one final tour in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Dark Side. Don’t miss it!” Tickets go on general sale on Friday, March 10, at 10am, with Citi presale starting tomorrow (3/7).

The Dark Side Of The Mule tour hits the NYC-area on August 19 at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ, and Gov’t Mule are also doing a Dark Side set at Long Island’s Great South Bay Music Festival on July 23 (the day after Phil Lesh plays). Also, after being forced to cancel their New Year’s Eve shows this past December, they’ve rescheduled them for this year on December 29 at The Met in Philly and December 30 and 31 at Beacon Theatre in NYC.
