Good cover versions... bad cover versions.

Talk about anything in here from the price of tea to the state of the economy!

Actually that is SO bad, it's almost good. Sort of like "Plan 9" of cover songs. :lol:

yea, on christmas i believe phish plays one of their albums, a cover album, and then another one of their own! its incredible, thats a really long show, especially when your covering something like the white album. the albums that im pretty sure theyve played are pink floyds dark side of the moon, beatles white album, the whos quadrophenia, velvet undergrounds loaded, and talking heads remain in light. they are a great band, phish that is

Phish is a very cool band in their own, unique way. Hey, if the dead could cover CN, Baba O Riley, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Dylan, Blues, Folk....Phish is similar to the Dead in that way (amongst others).
