Yee Ha!
Like Glen’s list these artists I have not seen live yet or I am not scheduled to see. Another criteria is that they must be currently active in some way, shape, or form. If an artist appears in more than one group, then they are listed together, for the most part. Also, the artists featured are my favorites except where noted and they are enumerated in order of how high they rank as my favorites.
1) Rage Against the Machine/The Nightwatchman aka Tom Morello/ Street Sweeper Social Club (not a favorite)
2) Australian Pink Floyd (technically PF is the favorite and not this cover group)

5) Bad Brains
6) Leonard Cohen

K, I’ll stop here. There are plenty more I could name. I’m not exactly sure how active some of these bands’ statuses are, but basically if they weren’t on hiatus or completely disbanded, or dead I allowed it.
