New Year's Evil Cover Song Wish List Thread!!

[EgoTesticle]

This is an awesome thread lol. I know I already offered 5 songs (pretty good ones, IMO lol) but I keep coming up with more that I think would be awesome. How about these 2:

Dear Mr. Fantasy (Traffic)
Green River (Creedence)

I think the reverb on Mr. Fantasy makes it a great fit.

Unfortunately, Gov't Mule covers "Dear Mr. Fantasy" to death ..... LOL

Have to admit, Im not a big fan of theirs. A lot of these songs are covered quite often though. Its kind of hard to find a Neil Young (or Who)song that Pearl Jam hasnt done. Im certainly not complaining though. I saw them do Harvest Moon, Leaving Here, and Rockin' in the Free World at the same show lol. Pretty damn awesome.

Whiter Shade of Pale - Procol Harum

Wow--Love this--would have never thought of it, but you're right--that would be completely amazing. . . and haunting is a *perfect* word for it.

Hi all, new member here.  :D I'll properly introduce myself later, but I've been digging this thread so I thought I'd contribute.  
Anyway, my wish theme would be a roaring '20s theme with girls dressed as flappers and guys in evening attire. Fans could meet for martinis before hand. Just before the band emerges  the Shannon Quartet's "Sidewalks of New York" is played over the PA--"...trip the light fantastic on the sidewalks of New York."  
Okay, so covers I want to hear:
"Fascination Street"--The Cure
"September Gurls"--Big Star (actually any Big Star would be totally Joe Kickass!)
"Time and Love"--Laura Nyro
"Here Comes Your Man"--The Pixies
"Epic"--Faith No More (they could jam this out of "Highly Suspicious!)


Well, just a thought...
