Widespread Panic performs Mr. Soul live at The Classic Center in Athens
In 2011, Widespread Panic was enjoying the sweet spot of their career, celebrating their 25th anniversary with an electrifying performance at The Classic Center in Athens, Georgia. This live recording of "Mr. Soul," captured on February 10, brings back the thrill of that night—an event that paid homage to their long-standing journey in the music world. Prior to this anniversary bash, they had released their studio album "Dirty Side Down" in 2010, which marked a significant evolution in their sound and reflected their knack for blending rock, jam, and southern influences. The concert was not just another show; it was a reunion of sorts, celebrating their rich history and connection to the Athens community, where their story began. For fans and newcomers alike, the lively spontaneity of that night radiates through every note, encapsulating the very essence of Widespread Panic's enduring appeal.
