Real Talk Tuesdays: 21st Annual Great Cover Up

The 21st Annual Great Cover Up was this past week and I missed the whole damn thing. We were out of town so for only the second time in 11 years, I did not participate. It was fun to check online to see the videos and pics start to pour in after each night. And after watching the highlights from the closing session (Thursday, January 19th) I'm convinced that it was the greatest night in Cover Up history. And I missed it.

 

Terminous Victor as Cheap Trick ("I Want You to Want Me")

 

The Dirty Feathers feat. A-Rock and Kayla Brown as The Rolling Stones ("Gimme Shelter")

 

Sun Stereo as The Beatles
("Mean Mr. Mustard/Polythene Pam/She Came in Through the Bathroom Window")

Hot Cops! as The Strokes ("Hard to Explain")

 

Hathaways as K.C. & The Sunshine Band ("Get Down Tonight")

 

 

Sweet lord.

 

Props to Electric Bitters for the videos.
