    HA....that is a pretty terrible version.
  • LOL. I don't really remember this one. What exactly makes it so horrible? Intonation?

    I really like Wolfmother, but yeah, that was a rough version for sure. Couldn't even hold the timing of the verses together, voice sounded awful. I've heard other good versions with Wolfmother though, obviously this was an off night.

    Funny how Andrew ruins Hunger Strike,

    but eddie makes Wolfmothers 'Mind Eye' sound awesome.

    Is it as bad as Corin Tucker from Sleater-Kinney doing it in Holmdel,NJ in 2003. Her voice makes me cringe and my dog run out of the room

    The versions w/ Corin Tucker sound like a masterpiece compared to the one w/ Wolfmother.

    Well of course there is a thread about this.. :D
    Just heard that version for the first time and posted on the pj radio thread. Just awful.

    Had to youtube the Ben Bridwell version immediately to ease the pain, that's how it's done!

    Band of Horses can do no wrong. He totally nails the vocals on that.

    I actually had to go back to listen to the wolfmother version and its ever worse second time round :lol::lol:
    I'm yet to see PJ do Hunger Strike live. If some knobhead from a crappy support band ruins it for me I'm gonna be livid.

  • Yeah, this version is awful. When I first heard of how bad it was I expected him to not be hitting the high notes well or something. But, no... This guy is awful just singing the first verse.

    I'll take the awful Chester from the awful Linkin Park singing it with Cornell over this any day. That guy's version isn't all that bad. Hell, I really don't see anything wrong with Corin Tucker singing it, either.

    They played it on PJ Radio yesterday, apparently. I saw the complaint in the PJ Radio thread, lol. :lol:

    Cornell wasn't really on top of his game at Alpine either...I wouldn't say it was awful though.
