Cover, okay. And it's one we do with Pavlov's dogs. Mm-hmm. I really enjoy playing I Want to Be Your Dog by Iggy and the Stooges. Yeah, it's a good song. Which is perfect because we're Pavlov's dogs.

I actually, I have a guitar made of aluminum that I got made and I thought this thing's indestructible.
