They are doing another tour this Fall, to support the new album.  Mr.
Chuck Leavell will once again be guesting on the keyboards, and Dave
Schools and Oteil Burbridge will be sharing the duties on bass[*] (Dave
some gigs, Oteil the others).  Look at http://www.mule.net/tourdates/
for the dates, but, from memory, it runs Sept-Oct at least.

I caught them this Spring tour, and I can say it's a show well worth
turning out for.

Cheers,

Paul.

[*] Although Les Claypool is slated to play bass on at least one show.
