Mule, Gordo, PG, Dump | 08.09 | Atlanta

What an amazing show!! Oh, except for ol' Gordo.

I lost my visor during going out west. If anybody picked up a black disco visor let me know.

This looks and sounds like it was a helluva night!! PGroove is just ok, but the rest of the music was probably fantastic!

Mike Gordon was wondering around the venue prior to the show. I had a chance to say "what's up." Such a nice dude. And his set was pretty awesome too. It looked and sounded like Murawski was playing a Languedoc and if you shut your eyes a just listen you could hear a very familiar tone...

Anyone else bump into those dickhead off duty cops standing in front of the sound broad? One of those assholes was flashing his badge at me when I spilled a drop of beer on his girlfriend.

Oh that dead set from the mule and gordo was just what the doctor ordered.

SWEET SHOW! mule at its best...

Ricky Callahan was amazing (whoever he is???) anybody know where he come from

Thanks for the great review! I hoped to make my way to ATL for this show, but a lack of funds kept me away. It was nice to see some pics and read some words, though.

Damn sure wish I was there. OK whos got a recording?!?

good article and pics but no mention of Matt Grondin sitting in w Dumpsta????

dude missed out picking Dumpstaphunk over brock/allen late night. and pg played two weeks before this in athens, it wasn't their first time in georgia with hruby on keys.

great job Mike Saba with the pics!

what a cool setlist from MULE.

prudence, get out of my life, going out west!!!! nice!!!!

I know its unrelated but I just heard that Dave's sax player LeRoi Moore has died. This is a bummer man.

Mike, great shots!

Very good article too. Unfortunately, I did not make it to dumpstafunk.

I posted my pics here:

Ching--i was thinking the same thing. I heard Grondin tore that shit up with D-funk.

ha ha, those pictures are amazing! the first shots of Gordo and Warren, Cactus with a ridiculous look on his face and Haynes apparently very disappointed with his guitar pick - well, don't stop taking rock photos, sir!

foadser - That is a Languedoc that Scott Murawski plays! I saw these guys in Buffalo last week and definitely know what you mean about hearing that tone!

Finally...1 picture of the man himself SCOTT MURAWSKI.

Man... Dumpsta and mule, I missed out on this one. I agree with bonaroo-rothbury-acl... Gordo, please, I cant believe he is still around. Boring and pedophilic... I saw him and trey at rothbury, and it sucked. I have always wondered why people like phish, and I still dont know why, except that they dont know about a lot of other bands, but why would gordo even be at this funk filled fest? To bring the awesomeness of his shit-wannabe-jamband- folk rock with old geezers and their tweezers? Lamn. Now lets see how many thumbs down I will get for a anti-gordo comment, my guess is 9-12 thumbs down, c'mon jambase forum dont disapoint and give me a thumbs down because I dont like a pedophile!!!

great article and pictures.

msudtg, I guess I just don't understand music or haven't seen enough bands to appreciate the really good ones, like, Soul Asylum? You have three bands on here and Soul Asylum is one. Come on newbie, quit making yourself look like an arse, especially calling Gordo a pedophile. Soul Asylum, seriously and your gonna call out Phish.

^^^ I second that! msudtg-- a "funk-filled fest"? Last time I checked Mule and PGroove are hardly funk bands. Dumpstaphunk of course, but you have no fucking idea what you're talking about. Each band on this bill is quite different from each other which makes a good show in my opinion. And Soul Asylum, HAHA!!

Wish I could have made this, nice job to whoever booked this one.

msudtg = Please do us all a favor & dont ever have children.

Dumpstaphunk is almost too Funky...is that possible?

Scott Murawski is awesome.

looks great

The late night Brock/Allen/Special Guests show in the Hell section of the Masquerade was one of the sickest shows I've ever seen. Period. I'll post up a link somewhere in the forums for the download once its available. Dumpstaphunk is great but I really do feel bad for anyone who was at their late night and missed the intense heat in Hell. Great weekend.

thanks all. and thanks to frank for the review. nice job and i loved the going out west recap.

there are more pictures on musicphotog.com

i also took some for the show in hell (which ironically had more light than the show in heaven), but have not processed them. maybe that will happen when we get back from china.

somebody mentioned gordo sitting in w/Dumstaphunk. I left that show a little early...don't tell me i missed that???? Is it true??

Alliteration? It's assonance. No PG pics?

TimMorrison,

It is actually alliteration when the words begin with the same letter, as do August, afternoon, and Atlanta. Assonance is when words share the same vowel sound, so its understandable that you would confuse the two in this case, where the alliterative sound is a vowel sound. Sorry for the little grammar lesson, but you shouldn't really call out a writer for a semantic error unless you are correct.

^^^oooh snap!^^^
