I would certainly think Hoey qualifies! I mean, Heavy Bones is on here and he's in that band...

Mr. Sandman? That's reason enough to end Cover Day. Either that or slit my wrists. :x

Loki, that was wild! What in the world made them do that? Dunno, but I was, well, shocked and awed. In a good way.

LOL.. Yes, I figure sometimes we need some shocking element. It's too damn serious here.
Oh.. Black Lab, don't slit your wrist, it's not that bad. There are way way more unlikely cover tunes out there.

What is with all the covers this afternoon? The Queensryche cover of "Neon Knights" was pretty good, but a couple of these really bite. I'd much rather hear the original in most situations. I really hate the re-recordings of songs. Maybe I'm in the minority opinion here.

Unfortunately you are in the minority. Some listeners have taken it upon themselves to make certain days "theme" days. I, for one, would rather leave it as open requests, or else you start to scrape the bottom of the barrel and play Mr. Sandman. Regular radio is bad enough with their regimented programming. We don't need it here.
As for the covers I agree alot with your sentiments. A song is usually covered because it is a classic. So why does someone else think they can do it better? Some are good, as I mentioned earlier Gary Hoey has a couple of amazing ones. But overall, I think most do not do justice to the originals.

I guess I'm the minority on this cover thing. I was wondering why so many covers and tribute albums keep getting made. People obviously like hearing other musician's songs being remade. "Am I Evil" was an obscure song, so that I understand. But who needs to hear a Motley Crue song remade? Just my opinion. Or hearing Marq Torien singing Journey. That is like razor blades to the ears!

I do the same thing. Occasionally, I get a cover on a RR. Other than that, I like to leave the covers for "Cover Day" - which I enjoy.
