I love the Mule to this day, but the early days of this kick ass power trio was freaking amazing! Warren's voice was so strong and his guitar, well, blow you away power! Woody ripping that bass on the low end and Matt Abts driving attacking those drums, it was a high energy, exhausting show from beginning to end! My favorite show was at the Orpheum Theater in Boston just a couple of weeks after 9/11. That show brought tears to many eyes. Total emotional roller coaster, if you can find a recording of that show, there was a bootleg, buy it, copy it, it was mule kicking your ass!
