    I would like to hear the old Motown "Leaving Here" live. A song I would like to hear them cover would be (since they have a keyboard player now) would be Thunder and Lightning by Thin Lizzy.

    Neil Young "the ocean"? that would be cool.
    Pearl Jam, Neil Young, Mike Watt, fugazi, Geraldine Fibbers, The Who, Mudhoney, The Evens

    Right now, given that it's what I've been listening to the most, I'd have to say their live cover of John Lennon's "Give Us Some Truth" is simply amazing..... they take a great activist song and make it their own, from Eddie's great vocals to Stone and the guys jammin'....it's great.

    I would like to hear them do something by U2.....maybe "sunday Bloody sunday".

    I love WPB "patriot".

    covers I love:

    *throw your arms around me
    *I got you
    *baba 'o riley
    *Stuff & Nonsence
    ...........................plus many more.

    I really like Ed's version of Hide Your Love Away and I think to song below would sound great coming from his mouth. It's an oldie but a goodie! If you've heard it before you'll probably agree with me!

    Jonathan Edwards
    Sunshine

    Sunshine go away today,
    I don't feel much like dancin'
    Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
    Don't know what he's askin'

    He tells me I'd better get in line
    Can't hear what he's sayin'
    When I grow up, I'm gonna make it mine
    These ain't dues I been payin'

    How much does it cost? I'll buy it.
    The time is all we've lost. I'll try it.
    He can't even run his own life,
    I'll be damned if he'll run mine
    Sunshine

    Sunshine go away today,
    I don't feel much like dancin'
    Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
    Don't know what he's askin'

    Working starts to make me wonder where
    fruits of what I do are going
    He says in love and war all is fair
    He's got cards he ain't showin'

    How much does it cost? I'll buy it.
    The time is all we've lost. I'll try it.
    He can't even run his own life,
    I'll be damned if he'll run mine
    Sunshine

    Sunshine come on back another day
    I promise you I'll be singin'
    This old world she's gonna turn around
    brand new bells'll be ringin'

    I love Crazy Mary, although they put out a studio version, it is a cover...and one of my favs.

    I'd love to see tham cover some Matt Good Band, like Everything is Automatic or Load Me Up.....Mikey could rip that up!

    I loved the version of Dock of the Bay with the "Honor to play one of his songs with him here tonight" intro. I also have a great version of Ive Got a Feeling with Ed's little brother on guitar. I wish they would add those 2 songs to the encore rotation.
