I'd also like AB to cover these songs:

Kashmir & Over The Hills And Far Away by Led Zep
Back In Black & Whole Lotta Rosie by AC/DC
Highway Star by Deep Purple
Hunger Strike by Temple Of The Dog
Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd
Carrie by Europe
Nothing Compares To You by Sinéad O'Connor
Did you include Sinead O'Connor just to see if anyone was reading? :lol

Comfortably Numb would be outstanding, esp considering both Myles and Mark said that has the best solo ever.

I'm voting for Def Leppard's Photograph or Megadeth's Symphony of Destruction
And just to go with something odd, MJ's Beat It would be pretty cool. (Jim agrees)
Another photobucket casualty... :(

Hmmm, MJ makes me think of Prince - there must be one of his songs with both cool guitar and vocals for them to play with...

Oh, and some Stevie Wonder for Myles - Superstition maybe? what else?

Sting - Fields Of Gold could be pretty sweet.. They could make a pretty cool ballad from it I think :)

Yes, I've seen it a few times. Along with: Highway Star, Sweet Emotion, Baba O'Riley, Rock 'N Roll, and maybe more I can't remember right now. I've seen all of their covers in person except Kashmir.
Photobucket cash grab.

Personally, I'd love them to do a cover of Quicksand Jesus and In A Darkened Room by Skid Row. Think Myles and Mark could do crazy shit with them.

Oh yeah! Myles covering Baz. Brilliant. Think of them doing Wasted Time!

These two, plus "Goin' to California" by Zep. That would be an awesome acoustic duo song.

holy cow, you
A) contributed to the AB forum
B) said something I agree with!

and if mark did harmonies in a tuned down heavier version, it could be pretty sweet!
