Beloved jammers Widespread Panic returned to Las Vegas, NV last night, kicking off a three night run at The Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel. Panic has made Vegas a regular stop for multi-night runs along their summer touring, never failing to pull out surprises and more for the occasion. Last night was no exception, as Panic welcomed members of the Dirty Dozen Brass Band to add some potent brass magic to their classic tunes.

The show opened with “Who Do You Belong To?,” letting Panic work through a number of classic originals like “Thought Sausage,” “Radio Child” and more. It was baritone saxophonist Roger Lewis who first appeared, joining the band on “Pickin’ Up The Pieces” and “Stop Breakin’ Down Blues” to end the set. In set two, it was five of the dirty twelve who came out and jammed, including Gregory Davis, Kevin Harris, Efrem Towns, Kirk Joseph and Roger Lewis. They came for an extended jam session, including the debut of Professor Longhair’s “Go To The Mardi Gras.”

After a great version of “Red Hot Mama,” the horn section and band members left the stage for a “Mini Drums” segment, before returning for “I Walk On Guilded Splinters” and Bill Withers’ “Use Me.” The set ended with “Chilly Water,” and a double encore of “Honky Red” and “May Your Glass Be Filled” ended the night in style.
