Default Paul Westerberg (Replacements) cover: Skyway

This is one of a series of recordings I made to test out my Paul Westerberg
covers for open mic performances. I wanted to hear how they sounded played
completely off the cuff in one take.
I found some video of Skyways to put with the audio. I remember visiting the
twin cities and walking though many of those.
A boy doesn't meet girl story. He walks on the busy little one way street and
waits for the bus. He sees a girl up in the skyway and can't get her out of his
mind. So then one day he decides to go up in the skyway where she certainly
will walk by. But that time she is down below in the street!

Hey Gil,

Fun song. I need to listen to more of the Replacements - I have friends who are big fans, but I’ve not dug in.

Great picking and vocals - you’re ready for open mic!

Cheers,

Dave
