Audience participation time

To those of you who won't be spending the weekend in Austin with us: don't feel left out. Instead, we offer instead this first attempt at direct reader interaction.

Come one, come all! The ToB wants your list of the five all-time greatest covers. Greatest means the best... EVER, so they don't necessarily have to be your favorites. In fact, if you list that shitty redneck version of Gin and Juice, we will hunt you down and peck out your eyeballs with pretzel sticks. No explanation is necessary, but it might help convince others that you're not completely insane if you can rationalize your picks a little.

So anyway, start digging through your cd's, music folders, playlists and other depositories of goodness and get' er done. We'll announce the definitive list after we figure out that you really don't care. Happy listing!
