Cover Night #2 Tomorrow Night!!! (Emergency Disclaimer)
Added 2025-03-12 16:30:47 +0000 UTCHello beloved members of TT & GWT,
I’m getting ready for tomorrow’s Cover Night #2 stream and realizing I may have bitten off more than I can chew—I’ve gotten 21 requests, and I only know 6 of them.
I did mention in the original post that deep cuts would have lower priority, and after the first stream, I said I’d try to get to folks I missed last time. Turns out, most of those folks requested deep cuts, and I’m in a bit of a bind.
The reality is, I just don’t have the time to fully learn a bunch of songs I’ve never heard before. If something’s already rattling around in my subconscious, it usually comes together pretty quickly, but learning something from scratch—especially the more intricate stuff—takes way more time than I have right now.
This series is still new, and I’m figuring out how to make it work long-term. I’ll do my best to fit in what I can, but I also need to be more upfront about what’s realistic.
If anyone would like to drop in some new requests for tomorrow night, I'll say there is a 90% chance I'll play it if I'm familiar with the song. If it's a band or artist that I'm on record being a fan of—there's probably a 75% chance.
Sorry for any disappointment, and thanks for rolling with me while I iron this out. Looking forward to tomorrow!
Big Nick

2025-03-13 05:58:10 +0000 UTCany chance we could get a cover of Empty Bottle by Decker?

2025-03-12 23:08:10 +0000 UTCI’d find it cool if u were able to do any Fall Out Boy song. I’m a big fan of Grand Theft Autumn but if there is any of their songs u know and like i’d love to see ur take

2025-03-12 23:00:18 +0000 UTCI maintain my request of No Cigar by Millencolin, primarily because it's one of their most covered songs and I like to hear other artists takes on it. I believe in you getting to it some day eventually.

2025-03-12 18:54:05 +0000 UTCNo worries! You are understandably busy these days, and it’s much appreciated whatever you are able to do for us!

2025-03-12 18:32:58 +0000 UTCI’ll second Tink’s thought and say play what *you* like!!

2025-03-12 18:12:36 +0000 UTCMine was obscure as hell so what about some Jeff Buckley? Last Goodbye?

2025-03-12 18:03:50 +0000 UTCI would like a CAKE. Rock n Roll Lifestyle is my #1 but any CAKE is a win for me if you got a song you know and like.

2025-03-12 17:31:49 +0000 UTCSpeaking for myself I didn't take a request as a guarantee and it's a fun concept regardless.

2025-03-12 17:22:44 +0000 UTCI was looking at the Graceland tracklist as well...

2025-03-12 17:00:31 +0000 UTCPiggybacking to say any Paul Simon would be cool. Graceland?
Molly Rosen
2025-03-12 16:53:46 +0000 UTCI was going to stay quiet this round to give others a chance, but since you know If It's True from Hadestown, I'll request that again. Would still love to hear it.
Thaddeus Carpenter
2025-03-12 16:48:25 +0000 UTCI triple dog dare you to play Paul Simon's "Father and Daughter" without getting choked up, I know I couldn't
Ethan Warren
2025-03-12 16:39:03 +0000 UTCI suggest a Big Nick Cover Up Night and just play covers YOU like, maybe mixed with a few suggested songs this time. Id be fine with waiting until you have a little more time to to familiarize. I'm still absorbing the Reset video. It's amazing.
