    for me, there is no doubt it is uncle neil... fuckin' up (my favorite cover of their collection)... ritfw... harvest... needle... walk with me at bridge was awesome... would like to see cortez once in a while... would love to see eddie pull out sugar mountain once in a while and maybe hit some mr. soul...

    as far as the who... they really need to bust out the seeker much more often... classic

    Neil Young!

    Hearing The Needle and the Damage Done being played infront of 50,000 people in Melbourne is something I'll never forget.

    I agree with this. The Who are a bit like Dylan for me, I prefer cover versions of their songs to the originals. I love it when PJ play Baba, it just kills.

    I agree. I think Baba O'Riley gets the crowd more excited than any song in the PJ original or cover catalog.

    I know they’re not popular but I’d love to hear sitting by the dock of the bay and walk with me.  Probably not as closers.  If you’ve never heard they’re worth a few minutes of your time.

    I was lucky enough to catch the 10/2/2004 PJ show that closed the show with Neil , and some of Pegi and Frampton with Harvest Moon, AATWT, Act of Love, Cortez the Killer, RITFW.. so gotta say Neil Young!

    Depends on which ones. I'd always take The Real Me in any set. Don't care much for RITFW or Baba at this point.

    But frankly, I think I like the Pink Floyd covers the best. 
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
