Warren Haynes on Aerosmith and Lots More

Author: Ultimate Classic Rock November 12, 2025 Duration: 48:39
On the heels of the recent Mule-o-Ween concerts, Warren Haynes returns to the podcast to discuss putting together his latest musical tribute for those shows. He teamed up with Dirty Honey's Marc LaBelle -- and on the second night, Corey Glover of Living Colour -- for a special Mule set each evening featuring a dozen Aerosmith songs, both fan favorites and deeper cuts. He also details what fans can expect for the New Year's shows and his annual Christmas Jam benefit concert. This year's Christmas Jam will feature a tribute to Phil Lesh, plus additional guests including Stone Temple Pilots and MJ Lenderman. Did Warren really share the bill last week with Keith Richards? You bet that's one of the topics we get into. Plus, Gov't Mule has an expanded edition of their first album on the way. We find out when we can expect to have that in hand and of course, there's a bit of Allman Brothers talk as well. In short, if you're a Warren fan or even just a music fan, there's something here of interest for everyone. Enjoy and visit warrenhaynes.net for more information on the various things that we discuss!
