angie, i saw the band was possibly going to cover a replacements song and it was maybe going to be can't hardly wait. i was just suggesting a a different version of the song that the band maybe hasn't heard and could incorporate it into there sound-cuz i agree with you and chris about taking the song and in-a-way making it your own, or in your style. i have also only seen the band twice (both times with the delaineys) and i was impressed. so i guess i wasn't real clear but what can you do huh! i also wasn't suggesting they become a cover or tribute band. ecspecially a creed one at that!!! sorry if i upset anyone. hope to see you guys again sometime soon........
