Amazing cover of the same song by "Mindwalk" -- kids 11-14 years in age These kids are impressive!
In fact impressive enough that here's another of theirs -- Live cover of Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls by MIndwalk Good taste in music from these kids. ^_^
(And of course, the original by Queen).
Looking for Love by King's X tribute band Dogman The world needs more King's X tribute bands.

Dug Pinnick's MySpace site Apparently they're busy recording a new albumn. Woot! After what I'd read after Ogre Tones came out I was worried about whether they were ready to give it all up and never record again. This is still just about my favorite band, and they're amazingly talented, they are critic favorites and favorites of many many other musicians, but they've never managed to sell well and have a hard time mounting tours. I heard once that after they played at the Woodstock festival in New York (was that 1994?) that many critics claimed they gave the best show of any band there... and yet, just about every other band that made an appearance had a spike in sales, and for King's X there was virtually nothing. I don't know, I like 'em a lot, not sure why so few people do. But as long as they keep making cds I'll keep buying them. ^_^
