I like the tempo of the 2004 version better, but to be honest the two versions are almost like two different songs like Lukin and slow Lukin, and Eddie's voice is so different, I smoked a bowl and listened to both, I would give each one in the 8 to 9 region on a scale of one to 10, so 8.5 buds each from this judgeDriftingByTheStorm wrote:Big Bank Hank wrote:Pearl Jam and Deathcab For Cutie Kissimmee 2004

i really love this cover too (and was trying to save it for someone else to mention, lol)
but do you really think the Death Cab version is the best?
Death Cab for me, the voice and all, is like what Sleater-Kinney must be to so many (i personally loved S-K)
and I think the 2000 versions are far superior.
You like this one better, though? (not a setup, just curious)0 -
I love gimmie some truth from MSG in 03.
A couple other favorites are crown of thorns, sittin on the dock of the bay, and you've got to hide your love away.
Sorry, no links.0 -

I'll mention Everyday People, because it's so unrehearsed it's funny.
Oh wow, didn't even think about "Someday at Christmas." Awesome cover, no doubt!
Matter of fact, I have a post on my long since neglected blog about my attachment to "Someday at Christmas." It is a little out of season, but...http://www.idistortion.com :oops:\m/ \m/

a couple of more obscure-ish favorites, two from CFAR @ Wiltern:
Little Hands (Skip Spence) and Ball And Chain (Social D.) both available as a "complete" download at spreading the jam.
Stevie Van Zandt - I Am A Patriot Bridge '92 -- CHILLING
and a bunch that are just Ed...
Eddie and REM - Begin The Begin
for the dancing alone, if nothing else. REM was my hero before PJ arrived.
Talking Heads - Love>>Building On Fire (C-Average & Ed)
Kings Of Leon - Slow Night, So Long - Ed w KOL, Werchter
Cheap Trick - Surrender Ed w CT
Tom Petty - The Waiting - Ed w TP&THB

Driven to Tears 7/3/20030

my response
There she lays staring at me
There she plays waiting for me
Her hair so colorful and free
Her eyes shine like crytals in the sky
Then she asks me "do you want to get high"
My reply is short and swift
As I hold and caress and lift
Her slowly towards my lips
She makes me dream of pipes and paper ships
Her kiss is so soft and sweet
Now this is one girl every guy would love to meet
She has many other lovers
But her crazy mind her crazy mind discovers
Secrets hidden deep within my mind
Girls like her a really hard to find
I really do not care who she loves other than me
Because her love is unconditional you see
Anyway, all my time would be spent in vain
Trying to find a lover as good as Mary Jane

This... (which oddly enough I was thinking about earlier today)veddertown wrote:I don't know about random but a good one off was REM - It Happened Today in Calgary 11. It was really fiitting that a song recorded in Berlin around the 10th anniversary of Roskilde featuring EV on vocals was the one they chose to mark the choice that day by Stipe and Co. to call it a day as a band. It looked like Ed was going to give them a solo acoustic send off and then the whole band kicked in for a fantasic finale. I still miss REM more than any other band...
