This made me think of a question that's probably been raised before:

What's the strangest or best cover of a Who song you've ever seen.  Could be 
anyone, even famous acts, but especially in a small local club or something 
like that.
I personally used to be in a band called TERRY's KID.  We did original 
material, but when we first started out we had to do a lot of covers to fill 
in our sets.  We used to do "Baba" a lot, although i hated doing it cos the 
singer (me) just tore it to shreds (i was more of a yell & growler than a 
singer).  Anyway, we later developed a kick-ass version of "A Quick One" 
which was really fun to sing (even if the bassist & i couldn't reach all the 
notes - especially the Ox's "you are forgiven" at the end).

Was at a show last night at a local club and a cover band called The Mixed 
Nuts were playing.  They do about as random a selection of covers one's ever 
heard, from hip hop to 80s schlock rock, to Elvis Presley.  Anyway, mid show 
I recognized the opening chords of WGFA and looked up directly at the lead 
singer/rhythm guitarist and he motioned for me to come up and sing it (he 
had seen our last open mike night gig there and liked us).  I was pretty 
drunk, but jumped up on stage and sang my little guts out.  It was a blast.  
The looks on the people's faces were priceless ("who the fuck is this 
guy?").
Also, Who Are They goes into the studio this week, hopefully, to record a 
few demos for our press kit.  Wish us luck as the definitive (and only) Who 
coverband of the southeast.
