    Headstones
    which tune? been racking my brain trying to figure out which tune would go well with pj's style. 
    Dude, I am just now seeing your handle. I didn’t choose Headstones by that at all, but to answer your question. 

    I think PJ covering #$%! You would be awesome. When I saw Headstones at Sound of Music in Burlington a couple summers ago, they played it and I remember thinking PJ would kill this. Similar to MC5’s Kick out the Jams.

    Thoughts?
    one reason I actually think Headstones should retire that song, is that so many people who loved the band from the beginning, are now my age and bringing their young kids to the shows, much like PJ fans my age do. 

    I'm always a little uncomfortable during this song, with a bunch of (often loaded) 40/50/60 year olds chanting FUCK YOU over and over again with middle fingers in the air, and seeing a little 10 year old boy standing amongst. it's the one reason I haven't brought my 11 year old daughter to a HS show. She knows they are one of my faves, but i just can't do it, for that reason. I have brought her to weezer and the watchmen (the latter are awesome to the kids at the shows). 

    I also find it kind of weird, just from a purely adult standpoint, to be chanting EFF YOU 20 times during a song at a rock show at this point in my life. Probably similar to singing along to Leash. at least for me. 

    I love that headstones song.  There's no way they should retire it :)

    It'd be like going to Rage Against the Machine and not singing a long to killing in the name of.

    I will say that the headstones usually play bars here so playing it in front of kids isn't really an issue.  I guess it would be at the upcoming tea party/moist/headstones tour.

    Are swear words that bad?  How young were most of us when we start seeking out cd's because they had those warnings on the cover.. lol.


    it's a tad different when I'm encouraging it as her father. it's not just the swearing. headstones crowds can be kind of....rough. especially if the show is a weekend. 

    when they first reunited they were playing 300 seat bars. now they are playing 1000-2000 seat venues, sometimes two or three night stands. 
    True.   All this thread has done is made me jones for a Headstones bar show.   They always kick tremendous ass live and I have such a good time.   We've got tickets in hand for the arena tour, but seeing the headstones (or tea party for that matter) in a bar is always epic :)

    yeah, my least favourite headstone show was seeing them in Kingston at the arena.

    I think Ed is a fan of Wintersleep - they were added to the bill at the end of the 2005 tour and then I think it was no coincidence they were on the Calgary 2009 VFest lineup right before PJ. Ed was side stage watching them. If there was a Canadian artist cover aside from NY my guess is it would be something further off the radar like Ed solo doing a Wintersleep song.

    Headstones have covered Let's Shake a few times, even with Gord Lewis guesting on guitar. Hugh and Trent are both huge TH fans. Being massive Headstones fan, i gave them a shot, but didn't really click. 

    edit: that first song of the heatwave festival I really dig. I'm going to give them another shot. thanks for posting that doc. I'll be watching that.
