We frequently do Any Colour You Like to loosen up.  We do a faster, funky sort of version (this is a bad take, but check out what I mean here: http://members.cox.net/rdgraham/AnyClip.mp3).  My friend and I duet on Dylan's Girl From The North Country all the time, just love that song.  As far as Phish covers go, we've done a lot, but don't play them too much.  Chaldust, NICU and Seven Below are the ones that turn up most often.  We actually soundchecked with a Makisupa at our last show which was fun.

well i just joined a jazz fusion band, hopefully now i'll finally have the rhythm section i've been dying for!  ;D I dunno what covers we'll be doing but i've started attempting to write jazz in the vein of the horseshoe curve, and i'm hoping i can get em to cover some songs off that because the horseshoe curve is brilliant.
