Yeah, I'll testify. Here's my deal, Dina--usually I don't like it much when
a band covers a cheesy song. I'm thinking of that awful disco thing that
Cake covered a couple years back, for instance..."I Will Survive", was it?
Anyhow, to me, the difference is, Robbie made "Jet" sound like the best damn
song ever written when he played it. (And that takes some doing. <g>) I
think it was his sheer enthusiasm.

Next, I want him to cover "Heart of Glass". Hee hee.

I <heart> Robbie Fulks,
Jamie S.
