Warren Haynes' Christmas Jam returned for it's 30th annual installment in December 2018. The charity event was held over two days at the U.S. Cellular Center in the guitarist's hometown of Asheville, North Carolina on December 7 and 8, 2018. Now, for the first time, it's being released on 4 different vinyl sets, 2CD+DVD and 3CD+2blu-ray. It features performances by Gov't Mule who presented a "Dark Side Of The Mule" tribute to Pink Floyd as well as Grace Potter, Jamey Johnson, Marco Benevento, and Mike Gordon. Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl also headlined one night for a set billed as "Dave Grohl And Friends Play 'Play'" in reference to his 23-minute instrumental. Gov't Mule, Eric Church, Jim James, and Joe Bonamassa round out the lineup alongside many more special guests.
