Covers are a compliment imo, and that one is pretty decent.
Looks like your intent is for this to be a place to post covers as they're found . . good idea !

Cover of "Apologies": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZChszj3bm4
From Germany - a cover of a cover; but Grace Potter is one of the tags, so we know who he's really covering. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSS-SED43HI
Liking this "Apologies" better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBIDo6bZ94E

Cover of "One Short Night" with kind words for Grace: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpVhtmGeskg
Here's an interesting one. Not actually a cover.
My name is Andrew P Weber. I am a country-oriented singer songwriter from the Kansas City area with an adopted southern home in Mobile, Alabama, where I study chemistry and frequent Serda's downtown. This is an original song I wrote that I wanted to share. The song was inspired by watching a live performance of Grace Potter & The Nocturnals in Mobile.
Not a cover - but all kinds of awesome.

check out this rowdy crew boldly going (and you-tubing) where few, if any, have gone before...pretty much NAILING "Paris," she even throws in the "ca-kaw" at the very end!

Uploader info says this was a practice session at The Cashbox in Mandan, ND on 8/4/10 .
Decent job but . . . for a quick reference Grace's 2004 Original Soul

My Morning Jacket covering "White Rabbit" - maybe they and GPN will do this together at Mountain Park.

okayyy .. White Rabbit is a long time resident on my favorite songs list . . I like My Morning Jacket (Jim James solo a little more maybe) - have a couple of their albums and am hoping I'll be able to catch their Portland show in October - but ... that was not something I need to hear again - as in never . . .

From the comments section of the MMJ YouTube:
Q: Is this song always presented in such sh***y quality, or is this an anomaly?
A: It’s a Lo-Fi recording. It is typically used either because A)They lack the proper equipment (which is possible, since this is an early recording of MMJ), or B) Because of the eerie, but at the same time intimate effect that it gives the music.
There are other negative comments, so you are not alone in your assessment; but I like it enough to listen more than once. And probably GPN can carry them.
