    I do covers on my own, and with my band

    Two songs off the top of my head ill cover would be
    Mark Lanegan - Hit the City :: For some reason i can sing this well, i play it on the bass
    QOTSA - Noone Knows :: I do an acustic version of it

    anything other song i can remotly sing i like to think i have an ear to compremise on, so anything that people will throw at me i can more than likely knock out a few chords on that will fit :D

    With the Band we cover

    QOTSA - Regular John
    QOTSA - If Only
    QOTSA - noone knows
    Kings of leon - Bucket
    Kings of leon - Joes Head
    Kings of leon - King of the rodeo
    Kyuss - One inch man
    Fu Manchu - Evil Eye
    the list goes on....

    One Inch Man is a mighty tune :D

    Recently a friend challenged me to learn Lateralus (the entire album), so I've been beating the drums to The Grudge a lot.

    Not in a band at the moment, but other things I enjoy playing a lot are:

    Rush - Tom Sawyer (nearly there..)
    QOTSA - No-one Knows
    A Perfect Circle - The Outsider
    King Crimson - Cat Food
    Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Moya
