Popper, Krasno & Haynes Among Umphrey’s Guests At Wanee

Umphrey’s McGee had the honors of closing out the Wanee Festival last night at The Spirit Of The Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL. For UM’s late night performance they offered an “All Night Wrong” set in which they only played covers. The band was joined by a bevy of special guests at points during the set including John Popper, Oteil Burbridge, Adam Deitch, Eric Krasno and Warren Haynes.

The band kicked off the “All Night Wrong” set with their “Life During Exodus” mash-up and a take on Led Zeppelin’s “The Song Remains The Same.” Next, a cover of The Clash’s “Rock The Casbah” led into the first guest spot as John Popper played harmonica on The Rolling Stones’s “Miss You.” UM’s version of “Hey 19” by Steely Dan segued into The Police’s “When The World Is Running Down…” featuring Allman Brothers Band bassist Oteil Burbridge. Following a dub version of Pink Floyd’s “Breathe,” Umphrey’s brought out Adam Deitch and Eric Krasno for John Scofield’s “A GoGo.” Haynes then emerged for “Immigrant Song” (Led Zeppelin) and “Black Water” (Doobie Brothers). The set came to a close with the trifecta of The Who’s “Baba O’Riley,” Hendrix’s “Power Of Soul” and ZZ Top’s “Cheap Sunglasses.” Umphrey’s returned for a two-song encore of Van Halen’s “Runnin’ With The Devil” and a cover of The Beatles’s “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” featuring Krasno on guitar.
