moe. returned to The Capitol Theatre for the second night of their guest-filled Wetlands 25th Anniversary Celebration. The band debuted a number of new covers, including tunes by Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Spin Doctors, The Beatles, Peter Gabriel, Van Morrison, Sly & The Family Stone and more.

The show kicked off with a few moe. originals before the band welcomed Chris Barron and John Medeski for takes on CCR’s “Have You Ever Seen The Rain” and Spin Doctors’ “How Could You Want Him” and “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong.” Medeski and Barron then exited, as the Conhead Buddha Horns, The Authority saxophonist Dave Masucci and Deep Banana Blackout singer Jen Durkin took the stage for The Beatles classic “In My Life” before DBB guitarist James “Fuzz” Sangiovanni joined in for “Akimbo.” The first set finally came to a close as Medeski returned to help moe. and company with their first-ever rendition of Peter Gabriel’s “Sledgehammer.”

moe. returned the stage with the Conehead Buddha Horns to kick off set two with “Spaz Medicine” and “Spanish Moon.” The horns then left moe. to their own devices for “Crab Eyes” before Durkin and guitarist Peter Prince joined in for an “Okayalright” that segued into “St. Augustine.” Next, moe. debuted their cover of Jim Croce’s “You Don’t Mess Around With Jim,” and Medeski and God Street Wine guitarist Aaron Maxwell came out for the band’s first-ever renditions of Van Morrison’s “Into The Mystic” and GSW’s “Mile By Mile.” The Conehead Buddha Horns and Fuzz then joined the fray for “Happy Hour Hero” and the band’s debut covers of Sly and The Family Stone’s “Stand” and “I Want To Take You Higher” to wrap up the set. The show closed out as the horns, Masucci, Durkin, Fuzz, Maxwell and Medeski all helped moe. with The Beatles’ “With A Little Help From My Friends.”
