Growing up listening to his music, this makes me pretty fucking happy.

I wonder if it it will be a studio recording or just a live version.

Would explain why he played it live if it's a studio version....fresh on his mind. Would like to hear it someday E1, but would much rather a 40, Belly Full or IBYU. Cool, though.

I wonder if Dave chose that song, or it was pseudo-assigned to him.

This tracklist is sick. Looking forward to My Morning Jacket, Old Crow Medicine Show, and Edward Sharpe

Great line-up indeed. Hope we see the song played in the E1 spot here and there on the winter tour and not just Christmas Song.

I'm willing to bet this is the live version, but hoping for something from the studio.

AWESOME. His Take Me To Tomorrow cover is outstanding, and if it's a studio recording then holy f'n win.

Considering he owns the record label, I'd say he had a say in choosing it.

Mr. Burns: "This house has quite a long and colorful history. It was built on an ancient Indian burial ground, and was the setting of Satanic rituals, witch-burnings and five John Denver Christmas specials."

I've always wanted him to sing Country Roads, although I would never turn down Country Boy.

Country Roads would be perfect for us West Virginians!
