Covers you'd be interested in seeing

    Ok so I was thinking today, what bands I'd like to see perform a cover from another particular band. For example, i'd like to see Pearl Jam perform Rain When I Die by Alice In Chains. Just out of interest to see Pearl Jam's take on the song. But anyway, is there any covers that you'd like to see a band play. Whether be out of interest or curiosity.

    Some covers i'd like to see
    Tenacious D- Heaven and Hell by Dio- I heard a short version of Heaven and Hell being played by Tenacious D It was part of the intro to Push but I thought it was deadly enough to want to hear an actual cover.

    Metallica- Would? by Alice In Chains- Saw a video of James Hetfield performing Would? with Alice In Chains, so thought it would be interesting to hear Would? by Metallica or at least they're version anyway.

    Mika- Anything from Queen, just because his singing style is kind've like Freddie Mercury's and it'd be interesting to see him perform Queen.

    I don't think there's a decent metal cover of any Kraftwerk electro tunes after they migrated from being a rock band themselves.

    A metal band trying to play Charlie Parker or John Coltrane would be interesting and amusing too. It would be a good pit of skill.

    I'd like to see Tori Amos and Dragonforce cover Duelling Banjos from Deliverance. I'm pretty sure she could hold her own, the way she's been talking herself up :)

    Speaking of Tori, I'd like to see Tool cover some of her stuff. Seems like a good fit. Precious Things seems like one that might suit their style.

    I'd love to see an Illusions-era GnR release a cover of the Snowman for christmas. I think they could really make it work.

    Soundgarden doing Kate Bush's "Cloudbusting"

    White Zombie doing some old Kiss - maybe Detroit Rock City?

    Iron Maiden doing Achilles Last Stand - the sheer volume of guitar parts would be a challenge but they've got 3 guys in the current line up (4 if there's an easy part for Bruce) so they could have a stab at it, and Bruce certainly has the range for it.

    Would love to see either Testament or Exodus cover either the entire Peace Sells album or the entire Master of Puppets album, why? Because some men just want to watch the world burn :D
