Was watching this zAGGueKe-6I
Which reminded me of thisbQ5i4Q-5BP8
And got me thinking, what are the best perfomances with a band covering a band with either the full original band, or any member of that band?

probably a better quality video but this link came up first so...
Not even going to bother trying to find (and post) the multiple covers of Blink songs that AvA and Plus 44 have done.

i was gonna say that
also, this sorta counts.
It's of when Max was sick from Say Anything and so they had other singers from warped tour sing the songs with the rest of Say Anything playing the music. This was freaking amazing live.

This is not the time that Bruce messed up the lyrics, just if you're curious.

hahahahahahaahaha
I seriously didn't see your post, and then the page refreshed and I saw your vid and was confused for a second. And yeah, this doesn't exactly count, but I'd have paid good money to have been there to see it.
