Beedster Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Another thread reminded me of the sheer joy of the well designed tribute band name (in that case Credence Clearwater Revival Revival).

Dad3353 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) Maybe it's time to pay tribute to tribute bands..? I'd start with the Credence Clearwater Revival Revival Revival. Then maybe in a few year's time, it'll be OK to pay tribute to the tribute to tribute bands, with ...

doomed Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 We played with...., Children Of The Gravy, a couple of times. Don't think I really need to say they're a Sabbath tribute. They're actually very good, we played with a few and COTG were the only ones that didn't bill themselves as, 'The UK's foremost/finest/best/premier Sabbath tribute'. And they were all the better for not making that claim as they wiped the floor with all the others. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tegs07 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) Id like to form a tribute band called Das Schmitt’s doing smiths covers in German, but sounding more like Laibach. Edited May 27, 2021 by tegs07 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Edge Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 My band was on the same bill as Flash Harry. A very fine Queen tribute. And I knew The Beagles. Slightly off topic a solo act I saw one evening singing to backing tracks, was being Neil Diamond quite well. And in the second half, with a different wig, he was being Tom Jones. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrevorR Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 There used to be a Queen cover band called “Magic - A Kind Of Queen”, which I always thought was rather clever. Also saw Queen B at a festival once. By Jovi is probably my all time fave, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
