Playlist: A Rambunctious Collection Of Covers For Peachcake

Now, as I said on Wednesday, Peachcake is presently on their amazing Make Mixes, Not War tour. The intention is to have a party, but also to share some of your great music with friends or the band. Their directions for the concert are as follows:

"We Want YOU to make mixes (whether on tapes, CD's, 8-tracks, disk-drives, or whatever media of your choice), and share them!
Yes...Share them.
Show up to the show and do one of two things:

1. You can submit them to us, (the band) and they will automatically be entered into a giganto-contest where we'll listen and pick our favorite three. (Winners will receive all kinds of prizes).

2. Share them with friends/audience memebers.
By doing this, you'll receive a discount on any shirt, pair of Sunglasses, or CD of your choice, and FREE Stickers!"


Now, free clothing options or nice, but as you may have guessed, I'm all about the music. Thus, I wanted to make a mix of my own for the show. But how does one make a mix stand out amongst hundreds of others? I solved this headscratcher with my playlist: a mix of covers! All the songs here are covered by other artists, a true celebration of music, as musicians play each others songs. If nothing else, it's a bit neat, and certainly unique. I collected as much of the stuff on imeem, so you aren't left to scour the internet in search of these rarities. So enjoy!
