Cover Wars: March Madness – The Finals
We started with sixteen past Cover Wars winners and now we’re down to just two.
And the finalists are: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman rendition of Sitting In Limbo, and Mr. Blotto’s cover of 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover.
You’ve got to READ ON to get to the final round of voting. Thanks to everyone for their energetic participation in the tournament. Next Tuesday we will reveal the winner and also get back to new editions of Cover Wars every week.
Now, we’re not going to give guidance on how you should judge each entry. Vote for whatever cover you want for whatever reason you want. The polls close at 11:59PM EDT on Monday night. If you feel like sharing your choices, let us know which covers you picked by leaving a comment below…

mr. blotto is NOT a cover band…yep…like most bands they do “covers”..& do them in their own style & 1st class too…BUT…they have written & composed the majority of the tunes you’ll hear @ any given mr. blotto gig….so check ‘em out : )

Blotto is a great cover-band, no doubt, and some of their finest jobs are grateful-dead covers. But Garcia-Grisman is a ligue above, sorry axel. 2nd for Mr. Blotto is not too bad, I think. See you tomorrow at grafenstreet.
