	Cover Band?
		The argument that we are a cover band is simply that "Hook Water Wolf" is just basic blues fare that is a recording of a cover blues band just rehashing the same old worn out tunes that you hear in every venue across the good ol' USA.
		In the broadest definition, a cover band is a band that "covers" or performs songs by other bands or artists.
		In effect, club date blues bands are a very specific subset of "blues cover bands" and provide an efficient mechanism for delivering live blues to the listening public.

	cover bands
		Original bands see themselves as doing the real work of writing, playing and struggling to get people to listen, of breaking their asses with little compensation on the uncertain path to getting a recording deal-- something the cover bands will never see.
		A cover band may also be a way for this person to play with others without having to be tied to an original act, playing parts that he/she finds unpleasant and uninspiring.
		Bands get all high and mighty about their original status, and yet often do more than a few covers themselves, sometimes recording them because they know people will give that a listen before they would an original.

	cover bands
		This band does not garner the respect that would, say, some guy with a battered guitar working through some Hendrix tune that's giving you chills he's so on it, someone who's obviously deeply into the music he is recreating.
		Probably the former band is giving you a pedestrian delivery of a tune only because it is popular, while the latter group is really playing a song because they think it's worth their time and yours.
		While new band members obviously change the sound of the parts they are playing, being their own style to it, there is just no comparison to the effect a change of singer has.

		Cover bands might earn top-dollar for live gigs in Milwaukee, but the dough doesn't roll effortlessly.
		Lang moved his U2 cover band from Philadelphia to Milwaukee a few years ago, partially because he thought Brew City's culture would be a good fit for a serious tribute project.
		It used to be that DJs promoted local bands and exposed listeners to new music, but now, commercial radio DJs don't have nearly as much control over the songs they play and therefore can't introduce new or local music to the masses.

		But where Band of Brothers excels is in its scrupulous attention to the realities of military life (retired US Marine Captain Dale Dye, who also co-stars, is the man to credit).
		The endorsement of these veterans elevates Band of Brothers beyond any mere "war film"--its extraordinary achievement is that it shows the horror and savagery of war without gloss or jingoism, and yet celebrates the fraternal bonds and dogged heroism of the men who fought.
		Every part of Band Of Brothers is simply outstanding, and I will still be watching every episode in the future.

		Voted the Band of the Decade (70's) by Rolling Stone magazine, their combined talents provided some of the finest music of this century.You will never hear anyone who can cover their songs even remotely, a testament to their collective musical genius.
		The final ingredient to the other-worldly magic that makes up this album is the fact that The Band had three of the best vocalists of the early rock era, using them each as lead vocalists as well as backing singers in gorgeous harmony combinations that showcase each singer's unique vocal timbre.

		Finally(!), I now know why cover bands are so-called; the intransitive usage that you've pointed out makes perfect sense.
		Now I don't wish to come across as a nit-picking ingrate, Bruce, but in the illustrative example that you offered, I think that "cover" is being used transitively, with "class" as its direct object.
