Check out my band's cover of Get Off Of My Cloud at Spike Hill in Brooklyn this past Thursday!  We're called Midnight Spin.  :pukey

Apologies for some of the mangled lyrics, it's one of Mick's toughest ones to decipher and we had had a few drinks  :booze  :P

Ok, well, I personally think this is a great cover!! Really.... ;D Super energy---authentic sound. I've not heard even "famous" Stones cover bands that sounded better than you guys doing this song!

Great Job I loved it Boss..........But if I may
2 things,
As I remember the song, Be aware of the rushing, rushing a live song in front of a crowd is easy to do BUT, one of the great things about that particular song is the beat, originally it was kind of funky, The drums sold that one for Me :areyoufuckingserious, and that what was great about the original. No none funks it out anymore, Not even Jagger and Company :blankfriggingstare1.
And 2 When you End a cover song, End it, the rave up at the end, give to something else. And don't fall prey to over doing it. The general crowd remembers the beginning and the end.  :wtf1 imo
But all in all A work........ very good lead vocal and back ground answering well done, a good beat, the guitar riff and the Bass line very well done , and extra credit goes to the keyboard player/ chimes bell sound background.
All in All, I'd hire you guys, or pay the cover charge to see you, with just listening  to that song at an audition, or outside a club, Good Luck!
