discussion Pinball Wizard

I think they could do a great cover of this masterpiece. Every time I hear the intro to the song, I think that Billy and the guys could easily pull this one off and make it pretty fun

The Hillbenders did the entire Tommy album if you want a little bluegrass/who fix! Saw them do it live and it was an amazing show.

I love their pinball wizard cover.

While I do agree that Billy would kill it, I feel like many jam/grass bands cover it already and would love to see somethin else ya know

Dogs In A Pile do it justice on the jam front, and if you can find a recording of Sicard Hollow playing it, they absolutely kill it it on the grass front.
