During their two night run at New Orleans’ Civic Theatre, moe. got into the Jazz Fest spirit with two high-energy shows that included some surprise debuts as well as surprise guests. Opening night featured a variety of moe. live staples including “Rebubula,” “Tailspin,” “Chromatic Nightmare” and more before the group dug into the traditional folk tune “House of the Rising Sun” to kick off the second set. The band adhered to The Animals’ famed arrangement of the song before transitioning into “Puebla.” “House of the Rising Sun” served as a first time debut for the band.

Night two featured a sit-in from frequent collaborator Mike Dillon on a pair of songs in the second sec, “Suck The Head” and “Buster,” the former of which hadn’t appeared in a setlist since 9/1/01. Dillon also recently joined fellow Summer Camp host Umphrey’s McGee during their show in New Orleans. The show, and run, closed with a “Billy Goat” set closer and standalone “Time” encore.

Next up for moe. is the aforementioned Summer Camp Music Festival with Umphrey’s McGee, Zac Brown Band, Trey Anastasio Band and many more. The band will also celebrate the release of their latest album No Guts No Glory with a show at Stage 48 in New York City.
