Let There Be Rockgrass

As might be surmised from the title, Hayseed Dixie are especially fond of the works of AC/DC, reworking "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "You Shook Me All Night Long" and "Highway To Hell", among others. Other acts made to swap their spandex for denim are Aerosmith ("Walk This Way"), Kiss ("Detroit Rock City"), Queen ("Fat Bottom Girls") and, in a nod to contemporaneity, The Darkness ("I Believe In A Thing Called Love"). There are also a couple of original compositions. We await the next logical stage to this proposition: the world has waited too long for heavy-metal versions of "Folsom Prison Blues" and "Okie from Muskogee". --Andrew Mueller
