Is that Tim Baxter on bass?

FAIL

Intentionally bad? Perfect badness is no accident.

We know why there were no barricades in front of the stage.

Head over to www.youtube.com and type in
Polka Floyd
The are actually better in person.

That's pretty awesome.

Kind of reminds me of Dread Zeppelin

Hurra Torpedo - Total Eclipse of the Heart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysUjYAi0WcQ

Iron Horse - One http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l6Y8PA_neY

Jon's One Man Band - Carry On Wayward Son http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfEyZH9DGGM

Seriously, watch the last one... kid has more talent than half of the modern rock bands.

Haven't watched anything in this thread yet, but that Hurra Torpedo clip rocked my world a few years ago. So off-the-wall it made perfect sense!!!

Throw in Beatallica, who does Metallica versions of Beatles songs. Funny for a few minutes.

I've heard about him doing a version of the Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows", but I've yet to find it anywhere on the web.

I'm not way into Jon Brion, but his effort on The Grays was amazing. Still one of my all time favorites.

^^^This. And I'd get all "REPOAST" on yee, but that E36 M3 is so horrible I just can't stop listening.

"Ce-ment shoes, rat poison, TNT..." I'm pretty sure Hayseed Dixie gets my vote for 'fo-real' best cover band ev-ar. "You shook me" should've been a bluegrass song:

Hayseed Dixie is awesome! Thanks, I have a new favourite band.

Fixxored

Gregorian - Comfortably Numb http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Omv3ozIT4jM

Mostly Autumn - Comfortably Numb http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDPTWIWDNqg

TAPFS - Comfortably Numb http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-24ADJezk8

Twilight Guardian - La Isla Bonita http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qToq_VQ8cN0

Yes I have obscure taste in music.

My family went and saw TAPFS last year, they said it was truly an amazing concert and the closest my generation comes to Floyd.

On and finally...

That gal does piano covers of Metallica, NIN, GNR, etc. It is some of the best renditions of their work. Usually I have that playing at work, nice and relaxing while still being awesomely metal.

Wow--I should have clicked first--

I was referring to Jon Brion's one man band that he does live with a bunch of Boss Loop Stations that allow him to overdub himself in real time.

Different "Jon's One Man Band"

Scarily enough, there's always Maybe Winehouse...

In reply to ignorant:

gotta love Dick Cheese

autoxrs, great stuff, Love Twilight Guardian

I will add a few obscure of my own. I have more but will stop with this for now.

Ozzy - stayin alive Sad Kermit - Hurt Tori Amos Smels Like Teen Spirit Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies country roads Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody

Richard Cheese - Great lounge versions Iron Horse - Great bluegrass versions of Metallica and Ozzy Luther Wright and the Wrongs - Country version of the wall

If you like pain or want to inflict pain on people, may I recommend Paul Anka - Rock Swings

Wow, Impressive

I'm a huge Dread Zeppelin fan myself.

Google or Youtube "McRory" or "McRorie" and meet somebody who wallows in awesomeness. I saw him open for Beck and he did everything from Iron Man to Rapper's Delite, all while accompanying himself on not one but TWO keytars, body- and shoe-mounted percussion, and doing the guitar solos by humming through an overdriven headset mic.

Best opening act evar.
