Zac Brown and his band did Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody at Brown's Southern Ground Festival in Charleston on Saturday night.  The whole thing was on AXS.

I never would have imagined it, but the ZBB really pulled it off.  It was a great cover.  


And an edit:  Here they are doing it a few weeks ago:

I remember when the Foo Fighters debuted.  Their first album was pretty good- but at the time, I figured this was just Dave trying to capitalize on his Nirvana fame for another 15 minutes after Kurt Cobain's death.  But 20 years later, they're still here, and as good as ever.  They've been one of the most consistently solid and prolific rock bands of all time.  It seems they've been recording and/or touring constantly since 1994, and they're probably the ONLY legit rock band left that still has any real commercial success.  At this point, I'd say they're shoo-ins for the HOF.  Not bad for a group I thought would be a short-lived side project.

Thanks for that, Herb! Worth seeing for sure.

Never a Sabbath fan, and I was around in their day. Busy enjoying Zeppelin and the Allman Brothers at the time, and going back to Abby Road, the White Album, Sgt. Pepper, Revolver and Rubber Soul LP's and thinking those four guys were way ahead of the curve. Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters and Ozzie of Sabbath agree with that as both are huge Beatles fans. Btw, saw Jimmy Page and the boys live in T-town around maybe 73 or so---just great!
