    In 1989, I took PG's ghost to see Heart. He was more into music than anything else at 7.

    The opening act (before his rise to fame) was none other than Bolton. Don't want to shock anyone, but he didn't just suck, he was a f*****g shop-vac!

    Ha! That would be great!

    I once had one of these come true. I always wanted to hear Bryan Ferry cover "I Put a Spell on You." When he actually did it, his interpretation was nothing whatsoever like what I had in mind. Oh well!

    For some reason, I keep hearing Jon Anderson singing the Kiss song Shock Me in my head, periodically.

    It's too late now, but I always thought it might be interesting to hear Richie Havens sing one of the acoustic Genesis things. I keep hearing him singing The Cinema Show, for instance.

    Although I'm extremely surprised that someone as informed as yourself wouldn't know this, "MacArthur Park" was already given a 'prog interpretation' - by Beggar's Opera.

    Hammill covering his mouth, huh? And rooted in meticulously elaborate argument, of course. How about covering the keys to one's PC with a blanket for, say, a decade or so?

    The now defunct Hydria doing one of the better Renaissance songs (no one covers Renaissance to my chagrin).
    Genuine prog album from back in the day! - *free download* : masquepremiere.bandcamp.com

    I wouldn't mind taking a stab at a song like Running Hard... Renaissance always seemed to have a drummer and guitarist that weren't even trying to be in the game with the keyboardist and bass player. It would be fun to try and beef those aspects up a bit. Without it sounding like Portnoy and Alan Morse... not that there's anything wrong with those guys More like Hackett and Bruford maybe.
