Best Cover Versions

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

I run a UBB too and I've never had a problem with the search function.  Admittedly, I have way less traffic than this site does, but I really don't think it would be an issue unless a lot of people started using it simultaneously, which seems unlikely.  As long as the admins occasionally run the UBB's maintenance functions, it should be ok (and they should do that anyway).
 
 What I like about a search is that there's a wealth of info contained on this board.  I imagine you could search for almost any band out there and find stuff on them, including stuff about past shows they played.
 
 As long as you're tinkering you might wanna do something about the Halloween color scheme too.      I think blue on black would be much nicer, consistent with the Club graphic at the top of the page...

 Jolene by the White Stripes.

And thus, less reptitive topics = less weight on the board?
 
 I must be blind, I thought it was red and black.

Moonbabies - Stars of Warburton (Midnight Oil)
 (www.myspace.com/moonbabies)
 I still like Ryan Adams' version of Wonderwall (Oasis).
 Luke Brindley - Love Minus Zero (Dylan)

Killdozer - Nasty (Janet Jackson)
 Electric Eel Shock - Iron Man (Black Sabbath)
 Big Black - The Model (Kraftwerk)
 Butthole Surfers - Sweatloaf (Sweetleaf - Black Sabbath)
 Devo - Satisfction (Stones)
 
 Under my thumb by Social D is an excellent call

I will admit there is a wealth of information here, if anything it will provide a good indication of whats been going on the club of late.  It could be a interesting project to go through the back pages and pull out the interesting bits and clean out some of the dregs.    
 
 However I think until new forum software is put in place and the current forum can be converted to html pages or something which can ge easily edited, discarded, etc, the search function should be avoided.
 
 Going forward I would be interested in creating a better method of archiving info. i.e. Establish a calendar for shows where things like artists setlists, reviews and dj setlists can be easily found.

I think some great covers are the songs by Seu Jorge from The Life Aquatic - all David Bowie songs sung in Portuguese
