:As i am aware, their name is pronounced "Goverment Mule" some one correct me if i am wrong. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 02:32, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the band name is pronounced "Government Mule" even though it is spelled "Gov't Mule."  Most of their fans simply call them "Mule" or "The Mule," however. KitHutch 21:49, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

message: * Can we expand on the "famous rockstars love Mule" part, or leave it out? If its only James Hetfield, I dont think anyone cares.
** Also, does anyone have citations for these "famous rockstars love Mule" parts? [[[User:Bo-Anerges|Bo-Anerges]] 06:29, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi, I've created a proposal for categorizing "taper-friendly bands", aka "bands that allow taping" within Wikipedia, and I wanted to invite people interested in this article to offer comments and feedback, since the Mule are one of the most prominent bands in the category.  The proposal is at User:Xtifr/BTAT, and I'd be very interested to hear what people have to say about my suggestions.  Let me know whatcha think.  Thanks, Xtifr 11:12, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

message: The discography could be expanded, even easily branched out to a sub-article, to include other appearances.  The following come to mind: Hempilation, Welcome to Little Milton, the Hound Dog Taylor tribute, Bonnaroo/Austin City Limits/similar compilations, the Warren Haynes Christmas Jam compilations, etc.  There are also promotional releases out there.

message: The band did not cover Nirvana, Pearl Jam or Soundgarden on their Live With A Little Help From Our Friends release. A check of the wikipedia page for the album clarifies that. They possibly did a cover now and again, but didn't do anything significant from either of those bands until Halloween 2008. There's nothing substantial claiming those acts as influences, either. 12.15.136.25 (talk) 21:54, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
