The Worst Classic Rock Covers of All Time Weekend Countdown

The Worst Classic Rock Covers of All Time Weekend Countdown

Prepare for a sonic assault on your ears as Jason Gore and Geoff Garlock unleash the ultimate countdown of the WORST classic rock covers ever conceived! Broadcasting LIVE from the sometimes-adjacent-to Seabirds Burritos (long story…), Jason and Geoff serve up two-for-one burrito deals alongside a heaping helping of musical travesties. This episode is a wild ride of hot takes, bizarre tangents, and enough cringe-worthy covers to make you question the very fabric of reality.


  • Weezer's Double Dose of Disaster: Jason and Geoff dissecttwo Weezer covers that should have been confined to a dusty demo tape. Why covering Toto is a cardinal sin, why Rivers Cuomo needs to stay in his lane, and why Jason's Weezer back tattoo is a constant source of embarrassment.
  • The Gunt Brothers' Polka-fied "It's Been A While": This Staind cover gets a bizarre polka makeover. Is it ironic? Is it awful? It's definitely…something.
  • AC/DC's Bass-Less "Big Bottom": Angus Young's duck walk can't save this cover from its fundamental lack of bass. Plus, AC/DC’s adult diaper line and the "World War II Veterans Who Love AC/DC" Reddit group.
  • Silver Springs: The TikTok Fail: Lindsay Buckingham tries to recreate the viral "Dreams" skateboarder video…with "Silver Springs."
  • The Doors' Coke-Fueled Confusion: Jim Morrison covers "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing," and it's exactly as strange as you'd expect. Plus, speculation about Jim Morrison's alleged Coca-Cola bathing habits.
  • Kate Bush's "Super Bowl Shuffle": A Flat-Earther's Delight: Kate Bush tackles the Chicago Bears' Super Bowl Shuffle, and the results are…unique. Plus, flat-Earth theories and a discussion of weather-controlling machines.


Plus, a new PSA from Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock and your updated 108.9 The Hawk Concert Calendar!
