... and rightly so

Reminds of a night, many MANY years ago

"So ... Where are we going tonight?"
"No idea"
"East Side Club?"
Yeah, sure. Who's playing?"
"Duran Duran? British"
"Haven't heard of them. Let's just go. Could be good"

Hard to take Jack Black seriously, especially when he sings "witchu" instead of with you. Not bad though.

I had no idea Harrison’s version was a cover until today.

I think I like Harrison’s version better, but the original is good.

"I Hung my Head"

Original sung and written by Sting (I missed this in 1996) cover by Johnny Cash.

I always thought it was Cash's song until last week.






Suffer Well.

Maybe not way better than these classics, but certainly worthy homages.

This is incredible. Backstreet Boys song reimagined as an Alice in Chains piece.

I think I've heard of them; through the Road Dog Podcast? Associated with Luis Escobar and Born To Run Festival

Yep! That's them

As runners filtered through the main camp after their first 10-mile loop, the daily activities began. Much like the day before, these included a wide-ranging series of random games. From the Lego Lava Walk, an excruciating run on thousands of pieces of Lego, to a full-on Lucha Libre battle royal. But as soon as the games were over and the runners trickled in, the clouds began to build. The sky grew dark and suddenly a biblical rain poured from the sky. Participants scattered to find cover and a dry place to prepare for the grand finale of the weekend, The Dirtbag Prom.

Much like in high school, everyone at Born to Run looks forward to prom night. Here, it was an opportunity to wear ridiculously unique outfits and celebrate life with one another. As the band Metalachi began to play, the crowd exploded, singing together louder than the band itself as the rain continued to pour. The rambunctious party carried on into the small hours until finally the rain stopped and all was quiet again.

I first heard of them in one of the early episodes of the podcast, which Luis started in 2020, but he's mentioned them in others for quite some time

Nice!

Check out Hootie doing justice to Scott Weiland. Perfect choice for his...somewhat limited vocal range.



Damn Scott was special. Glad I got so see him a few times before he punched his ticket.

OK - we have a melodica [Hooters reference] and a portable amp - battery powered? although this IS the 21st Century, so it could be USB charged?

But the definitive cover was performed for President Obama
