Covers at shows

[littlevictories]

Whats the best cover you've heard at a show?

I went to Lost prophets last night and they covered the Fresh prince of bel-air theme tune which I thought was the most original...

[Smash Adams]

that sounds really cool, a lot of the covers I hear at shows aren't full like third eye blind doing stairway to heaven or U2 doing rock the casbah
I saw the foo fighters do a really good cover of tie your mother down by queen with roger taylor of queen on drums

[hailthewarrior]

Jack's Mannequin does a good cover of "American Girl" live...
Relient K did a Top Gun cover-medley that was pretty good...

However, seen the Fresh Prince theme song as a cover would pretty much have to take the cake...

hellogoodbye did "Welcome to Atlanta" by ludacris and jermaine dupri the one time i saw them and the other time they did something good i forget what it was though.

Dashboard Confessional did a cover of "Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too" and it was very good. The crowd went nuts.

Street to Nowhere played The Chelsea Hotel #2, it was sweet..

Kevin Devine/Brand New/Manchester Orchestra cover of Neutral Milk Hotel's "Holland 1945' was an experience I'll never forget... just amazing.

Relient K played "Ice Ice Baby" once a while back, it was great.

Kevin Devine covering "say yes" by Elliott Smith

It was really good.

Well, at mine anyway, it wasn't exactly a 'cover', he just went into the chorus during "Remember to Breathe". It was great, and the crowd did go nuts.

Kevin Devine covering "say yes" by Elliott Smith

It was really good.

this one was really good.
so was his cover of "holland 1945" and his cover of "tautou"

and HTD's cover of "long way down" was pretty good too.

[Alexxx]

Every ska band ive ever seen live has done a cover of keasby nights.
haha does that count?

Redunckulous.

thats some classy stuff right there...

I remember Kingston Falls doing FOB's Sugar, We're going down...

and After EIGHT did My Girl.

[abusedcat]

The Unseen doing "Rise Above" was pretty crazy. Same as the Transplants doing "White Riot", but hands down I'd have to say Halfway To Nowhere (Andrew from Hopefields old band) opening up their set at their farewell show with "Coming Clean" by Hillary Duff.

[summerstars19]

I know this doesn't exactly answer the thread question, but Manchester Orchestra covered Semisonic's "Closing Time" last night at the Brand New show and that was pretty sweet. Actually, the show collectively was great.
