Umphrey’s McGee, or as we like to call them “The Hardest Work Band in Show Business,” played quite the memorable set this past weekend at the Wanee Festival, which was held at The Spirit of the Suwannee Park in Florida. The “All Night Wrong” set, which featured guest spots from Warren Haynes, Eric Krasno, Adam Deitch, John Popper, and Oteil Burbridge, was filled with various covers that Umphrey’s has been known to cover over the years, including The Clash’s “Rock the Casbah,” The Who’s “Baba O’Riley,” a dub version of Pink Floyd’s “Breathe” and more.
Brendan Bayliss even bought gluten-free cheese balls for the crowd, as he knew it would be a long night. It had to be a good set if cheese balls were involved.
