This is an amazing idea: 25 cover songs, 25 bands. Every time a band chooses and performs a cover song, it gets removed from the list making it harder as the project goes on.

This started yesterday with Ted Leo & The Pharmacists cover of Tears for Fears:

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists cover Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants to Rule the World"

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ted Leo. Have ever since Dink put one of his songs on a mix for me. Met him a few weeks ago at one of my boyfriend’s shows. He showed up with his wife to see his friend’s band play. Chatted E & I up after the show. He is a rad dude. Yeah I said rad.

Anyway, back to the music. Check back every week for more covers here.
