is this a 3eb cover?

No.  He uses a lot of titles that are associated with other songs.  He has a song called Come As You Are.

speaking of covers (and nicely tying in to the title of this thread), i came across this video of isbell covering brothers in arms last night:

 

I still wish Vince Gill had taken up Mark Knopfler's offer to play in Dire Straits.  Man, that would have been an epic band, and I don't think we would have missed out on much.  (No offense to Vince Gill, I think he's a phenomenal player and singer and apparently a first class human being, but I wouldn't have missed a few country hits in favor of some K-G guitar wizardry on every song on every album forever.)

Not sure if it was mentioned but Jack Sonni just died.

If that chick in the light blue isn’t busy next spring, I’d hire her to work calves for a few days. I believe she could handle them.

Yessir. The one that hauled two girls out of the shitter at one time. By their hair.

I was thinking I’d hire her to wash our planters.  In June.

Yeah, that might as well be a Luke Bryan song

Yeah, I mean, I don't know if the guy is an industry plant or whatever, but he's definitely not what I thought he was 30 seconds into my first listen of Rich Men.

I found a good version of how McMurtry is doing "Blackberry Winter" at his shows now.  No mic, out if front of the monitors.....  Holy fuck.   What a song.  I liked the studio version, especially Grissom's killer acoustic solo but this version....... Just kills me.

Damn, that was powerful.

That’s my fist time listening to that tune and I had to look up the lyrics. Tears were rolling down my cheeks before the second chorus.

Listening to the studio version, I never really paid attention to the meaning of the song, but when he did it this way live, it shot me in the soul.  To me, he is the best songwriter, ever.  How can you take that story and make it that powerful without saying, outright, what was happening?  

I've listened to that song a bunch and never really figured it all out until I just read the lyrics.

I'd always took it as a couple of older folks fooling around (kind of a theme on that album) and the man trying to keep his distance, but I never grasped that she commits suicide.

Yep. That’s the perfect gif. That’s me walking in. Hearing “an old darlin of mine is like a 90- something’ Chev……”

interesting. same night as pearl jam and mcready sat in with them on this last tour. 

That has not been lost on me either. Eddie has covered him in his solo shows as well.

Mike inadvertently throwing shade at Eddie.

Jason apparently turning slowly into a gay woman.

So, Amanda is married to a gay woman?  This is so cool.

I mean this is basically Harry Styles

I dig him.  This is my favorite.

 

Croy and the Boys are fun too.

 

This is the new song McMurtry is doing as his encore.  Pinocchio in Vegas.  About as autobiographical one we will ever get from him.....and him acknowledge such.
