I would love to hear New Speedway boogie. But more than anything I just want to hear some new covers.

Considering the last 2 NYE shows, I think new covers are undoubtedly in the works, and I am so freaking pumped to hear them! I do think they will maintain the 'Celebration' tradition as New Year's hits, and I'm ok with that if it happens. Can't wait!

I agree 110% The one other cover I wouldn't mind hearing again was "Bring On Home To Me" I thought Jim sounded amazing on that. And I don't think it has been played again.
No shit? They've covered New Speedway Boogie???

Unfortunately no. The OP was hoping that they would cover it on NYE since the last 2 NYE shows both feature new covers.

Ahhh, thanks for clarifying. My reading comprehension obviously sucks. How great would that be if they covered it though.

I'd love a Springsteen cover. I never gave it much chance before, but hearing Jim's comments after seeing Bruce at the YUM, I'm thinking it might be possible. :cool:
I think they'd sound great covering a number of Bruce tunes, and I'd love to see them do Growing Up, Because The Night, Youngstown, Downbound Train, Adam Raised A Cain, (or anything off of Darkness for that matter), and dare I say maybe even a little Rosalita will come out for NYE! :thumbsup:

This would be AWESOME. You know, Jim has played I'm On Fire on his own before...
Hall & Oates - Rich Girl
This could be so over the top in awesomeness I wouldn't know what to do with myself.
If they ever did a Bruce cover I would love to hear "Adam Raised A Cain. Jim and Carl could destroy faces on those guitar solos.

You gotta hear the Drive-by Truckers cover of that song. I'm biased but love it...

Penny, do you live in Austin per chance, and did we sing Hall & Oates together? A few weeks back I was at a piano bar called Donn's Depot and they were taking requests so I kept saying "Rich Girl". The couple next to me started a 10 minute speech about how much they love Hall & Oates, in particular Sara Smiles. So the piano player says he can play it, but doesn't know the words..... I get up on the stage and sing it to the entire bar with this couple doing backup vocals for me with the whole band playing behind.... Serious life affirming validation for me that night! I'm not quitting my day job any time soon, but maybe a Hall & Oates cover band could be in my future ;)

I love that version that Patterson did at the show where he covered the entire Darkness on the Edge of Town album. Very Very Good stuff!

That's awesome! But nope, I'm up in ole' NJ! Sounds like a great night.
It's so trendy to love H&O now..but I've always loved them...especially that song...I wanted to be named Sara...(my aunt is Sara with no 'h' just like that). *kudos SaraBB.

No, I didn't know that! That one wouldn't be high on my request list, but I'd take it. :wink:
YES! I've always wanted them to do New Speedway Boogie, feel like it fits them perfectly.
NSB just seems like a song they could really have some fun with. Agree about really just wanting to hear something new in the cover department. Really hope they don't do the "Celebration" thing for the kick off of the new year. Just seems so cliche to play that tune. Let's get weird and obscure this year.
What about guest appearances?
I saw this on the PC possible setlist topic, but how amazing would "Fearless" by Pink Floyd be? Jim would kill the vocals which are somewhat suited for him anyway as well as the dream like journey the music brings you on. This or "Rich Girl" :)

That would be a great choice. I actually always felt like Where to Begin had very similar vibe to Fearless. But maybe it is just me.

No Surrender would be an amazing cover, but I would take any Bruce cover, especially if Carl could handle one of those Clarence solos on the sax!
I always thought it was cool how the review from the Dutch paper compared Jim to Bruce in one of the reviews in the "This is not America" documentary.
I'm going to use my standard answer for whenever somebody asks what I want to hear MMJ cover: Cortez the Killer.
I know everyone is listing "new" covers but I would love love love to hear "Oh Sweet Nothing" again.

Here's one cover I would love to see - Moonlight Mile by the Rolling Stones. Take a moment to imagine what Carl's slide playing would sound like on that.

If I'm gonna go with a stones cover, its gotta be "No Expectations", imagine the slidework on that. Jim would just put so much soul in that heavy song too! Bo's key's at the end. wowza. I get the chills thinking about it.
This will be my 4th MMJ show and we're totally psyched. I always thought Evil Urges was MMJ trying on different acts, and "Highly Suspicious" was Jim channeling Prince. So with that as preamble, "1999" would be a choice I'd like to see what they can do with.
Love the ideas posted by some of y'all, especially "Cortez" and "Moonlight Mile."
