Doctor J Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Just curious to see what everyone's gig is, seems to be a lot of covers and tribute players on the forums. What say you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sshorepunk Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Originals, but throw the odd cover in, sometimes do a covers set (tomorrow night) but very rare! The covers are always changed to suit our style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanark Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Covers, but we're adding more originals (at the mo, roughly 75/25). The salsa dancers like to be able to name the odd tune. We're gradually increasing the number of originals though and rotating the covers too as we get more and more repertoire and the band slowly writes more material of our own.

the_skezz Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Only played seven gigs so far, but they've all had a couple of originals in...working more of them into the set as fans (or rather, the other band members and the friends we bring along) become more familiar with them...at the moment it's about a 50/50 ratio of covers to originals.

BigRedX Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I play in two. One is all originals with no covers even considered. The other is strictly covers played as close to the recorded versions as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I'm pretty much in the Originals with the (very rare) odd cover thrown in right now but I've had some great times playing with covers bands in the past. I tend to favour Originals bands as a rule but it depends on the music and the people in the band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
