Security experts offer some insight into how money mules are recruited, paid and managed by cyber-gangs looking to steal your data. – Recruiting

looting millions from banks around the world.

Gov’t Mule | Red Rocks | Pics

September 16th, 2010 | No Comments

Words & Images by: Mike Hardaker

Gov’t Mule :: 09.04.10 :: Red Rocks Amphitheatre :: Morrison, CO

Gov’t Mule cranked their amps up to 11 at Red Rocks at the band’s annual end of summer concert, where they were joined by The Avett Brothers and Truth & Salvage Co.. Mule lead singer, guitarist and bandleader Warren Haynes is a master at the guitar, having played with the Allman Brothers Band, The Dead, David Allan Coe and many more talented musicians, not to mention the dozens if not hundreds of musicians he has jammed with over the years. Along with Haynes was the rock solid Matt Abts behind the drum kit, Danny Louis on keyboard and even guitar for a few songs, and new bass player Jorgen Carlsson throwing down at Red Rocks. The first set started out rocking but settled into a mellow groove, if that’s possible for Gov’t Mule. When Haynes came out for the second set, he said, “This is the rock ‘n’ roll portion of the show,” as his guitar cut through the thin Rocky Mountain; a hypnotic sound you can close your eyes and really drift off to. Special guest Eric Krasno (Soulive, Lettuce) added his guitar chops in this set much to the delight of the Colorado crowd.

Gov’t Mule is heading to Oakland for a spooky Halloween show on October 30th, and before that making a stop in Las Vegas with their friends Widespread Panic for an intimate night of music at the Hard Rock’s The Joint on October 23rd .

Setlist
Set I: Railroad Boy > Gameface with Mountain Jam Tease, Patchwork Quilt, Child Of The Earth, Frozen Fear > D’yer Mak’er > Frozen Fear, Kind Of Bird, I’d Rather Go Blind, Soulshine with Gospel Intro, Broke Down On The Brazos
Set II: Steppin’ Lightly, Inside Outside Woman Blues, About To Rage > Electric Funeral Jam > About To Rage, Sco-Mule > with Eric Krasno, Oye Coma Va Tease & Dance To The Music Lyrics, Drums > High Jazz Jam > Endless Parade, Blind Man In The Dark
E: 21st Century Schizoid Man > We’re Not Gonna Take It > Dazed & Confused

    Gov’t Mule | 01.15 – 01.19 | Jamaica

    January 21st, 2010 | No Comments

    Words & Images by: Dino Perrucci

    Gov’t Mule Island Exodus :: 01.15 – 01.19 :: Negril, Jamaica

    Gov’t Mule :: 01.18 :: Jamaica

    Gov’t Mule held its first ever Island Exodus at the all-inclusive Grand Lido Resort in Negril, Jamaica. The event featured three headlining shows from Gov’t Mule as well as a Warren Haynes solo show, three sets from Grace Potter and The Nocturnals, guests Ron Holloway (sax), “Mean” Willie Green (drums) and DJ Logic. The weekend fiesta also featured a golf outing, Drum Clinic with Matt Abts, road stories from Warren Haynes’ guitar tech Brian Farmer and much more.

    With a stage located right next to the water on a beautiful sandy beach, the table was set for the experience of a lifetime. The Gov’t Mule sets throughout the weekend offered a great mix of songs from the new release By A Thread mixed with old favorites and island themed covers. Friday nights opener “Jam-Aica” > “The Joker” (Steve Miller cover) set the tone for what was to come. By the end of the set when Ron Holloway stepped out for “Dirty Work” (Steely Dan cover) and the set closer “Sco-Mule,” the beach was on fire.

    Saturday night opened with a nod to local hero Toots Hibbert with a cover of the Maytals’ “54-46″ that led into “I’m A Ram.” The strong show was topped off with multiple guests joining for encores of “32/20 Blues” featuring Willie Green and Ron Holloway, followed by “Stop That Train” with Willie Green, Ron Holloway, Grace Potter and Nocturnals guitarist Scott Tournet.

    Sunday evening featured a big Nocturnals set and two full sets of Warren Haynes solo. Though somewhat marred by rain and the ensuing sound problems, the show still provided some of the finest musical moments of the weekend. Monday night’s final set was one for the ages. High energy from the start, things really took off once “Rocking Horse” led into a “Beat It” jam with Warren ripping the Eddie Van Halen solo through the Jamaican night. “Beat It” also featured the stage debut of Sean Carlsson (Jorgen’s son) and his robot dance. The second set opened with Matt Abts on vocals leading the band through a cover of the Rolling Stones’ “Shattered” with Jorgen Carlsson on drums and Danny Louis on bass. It’s worth noting that over the course of the weekend Danny Louis, while usually seated behind the keys, also stepped out to play trumpet, guitar, bass and even joined Abts on Drums. The “Many Rivers To Cross” that opened the encore saw many goose-bumps and more than a few tears. I couldn’t help while standing there in paradise but to think for a moment that not too far away in Haiti there is a whole country with many, many rivers to cross. Ending the night with a rousing “Southern Man” (Neil Young cover), everyone walked away with big smiles on their faces.
    In the end, fans and musicians alike seemed to agree that this was one of the most memorable times any of us have ever spent together.
