when a favorite band covers your other favorite bands

School's back on--I'm taking Greek. Yes, Greek. It's intense.

In other news, the Punch Brothers are still amazing.

I just found this video of them playing Radiohead's "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushed Tin Box"--it blows me away how they recreate the very digital/electronic noise of Radiohead's awesome song WITH ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTS.

So cool.



But that's not all--this morning I heard them play another cover of the Wilco song "Poor Places"

This one has kind of shoddy audio--there is an unseen noise off camera, but it still shows the versatility of this amazing group of musicians.




If you'd like some points of reference, here's Wilco doing their song and here's a truly amazing fan-made video of Radiohead's:
