Finally caught up to this set, and like the "Pass the Baton" set he did earlier this week, it's an interesting concept for a set. But I just wish the covers he'd picked had been better. I did like the Ramones that he used for the Do You Wanna Dance cover, but I too was hoping for Mr. Dave, or maybe Bette Midler. And I was hoping he'd forgo all of Van Halen's many covers and instead use Jump as a starter, with the Aztec Camera version as its shadow. Oh well, maybe next time.
Let's get right to it.
