    thank you...we had a band called "the jazz pack" (named a bit after rat pack) and played all the sinatra and dean martin stuff...but we all were rockers and threw in some of the goodies like jump, don't stop me now, we will rock you (got to post this one, too...funny version) and highway to hell (in a very jazzy style)...panamark loves that stuff, too...he still waits for my banjo version of "running with the devil"

    Atomic Punk, ATBL, Ice Cream Man (once each) and DOA (both solo and with a band).

    Sometimes, with a cover band I play w/ on occaision...I'll drop "Miss You" by the Stones w/ some "Some people live apart...they break your heart so damn easy...." improv.

    will do. the only jazz versions of rock songs i've heard are by Alex Skolnick Trio - they're great, but only instrumentals...


    i was supposed to do ATBL with the first band i was in - i think was also supposed to handle vox for that, because i had the best Roth impression down.

    i got kicked out before we could play it on stage

    Does playing to yourself count?
    "With a rate of fire of over 20 rounds per second, the IMI Micro Uzi is almost as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen, and 25.4 times more musical"

    Worst of all... It's true..

    We also play Yankee Rose.
