Fantastic show, Brian. I really enjoyed the cover of Busted by Nazareth and the Robert Earl Keane cover. I hope you do more Johnny Cash shows like this, because this is easily one of my favorite artists to hear covered.
Great show. I found that INXS performance on YouTube for anyone who cares to watch Michael Mutchence lipsyncing badly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d82DYFJAWiY
Great show.
But you couldn’t find a cover of “Dirty Old Egg-Sucking Dog”? ‘Tis a shame.
I don’t know if you’ve played it, but Springsteen did a haunting version of “Give My Love to Rose” on a tribute album some years ago.
