any cool covers off the top of your head? obviously im making almost all origionals; i have some experience wiht trumpet so its not going to be incredibly difficult at all to write brass lines and ****. but the best part about ska is the awesome cover songs. i want to cover something totally...awesome. any ideas? maybe black sabbath? some iron maiden? i heard a ska band cover Mr Roboto by Styx a few years back, and they did it so well that i almost **** my pants. the guitarist even mimicked the synth line with harmonics. amazing. anywho, any suggestions whatsoever?
