Tomorrow Never Knows ought to be played more I think. and Else is about as classic as a cover can get. also 19th Nervous Breakdown for SMMD covers.

I love the up, swinging While My Guitar Gently Weeps they threw out when George Harrison died.

They did a pretty hot Summertime once, too.

But I think Tenfold is their best cover.

i'm a fan of 'what's so funny about peace love and understanding'.

i wish there was a tape of the 3/8/03 imagine with the crowd "singing".

does anyone have a copy of that jumpin' jack flash with mike?

also, i would say that modern love is a little underrated...and yes while my guitar gently weeps was sick.

dude i saw modern love played with SMMD and Meowskers just a mess on stage drunk in his white beater, but it was beautiful.. my first slip experience was as SMMD in North Hampton, a funky little city

hmmm I've never heard Happiness is a Warm Gun. find it hard to believe it could compare with Jacob Fred's version though. (I felt the same when The Slip started covering Everybody Wants to Rule the World...even though that is probably my favorite 80s new-wavey song, the Duo got cover dibs on it, and their cover is incredibly awesome.
