warwickhunt Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Many years in the forming but finally my Cheap Trick tribute is up and running. At the moment all gigs are in the NE but if anyone has contacts for further afield (or double headers with compatible tributes) and would like to see us, please give me a shout. 2 Quote
Happy Jack Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 If you can bring that anywhere near London, I'll be there. 😎 Mama tol' me, yes she tol' me ... Quote
warwickhunt Posted January 12, 2023 Author Posted January 12, 2023 They have a firm fan base that love them... not the broadest/biggest fan base but it is dedicated. Just hoping we can find venues prepared to take the chance. Quote

warwickhunt Posted January 12, 2023 Author Posted January 12, 2023 It's hard enough to get a guitarist to consider playing something other than their favourite guitar (between the band we own a variety of guitars; Hamer DC, Explorer, Les Paul etc), to add to the look... a Penta-neck is a step too far. 1 Quote

I bought a Musicvox 12 but... it is a monster and I'll not be able to handle it for 1.5 - 2 hours! However, my Bolin can be mocked up to 'look' like a Hamer 12 and run through effects to sound pretty good. I'm still looking for the right 12er. 1 1 Quote
Adee Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 Loving the videos on FB, if you get near me I’ll be there to see you! your Rick needs to do a custom job in his jacket … Quote
warwickhunt Posted April 2, 2023 Author Posted April 2, 2023 Stonking gig at Trillians last night. Not blowing our trumpet but it was packed and I had a hard time believing that when I saw my teenage heroes 'ANGEL' there a couple of years ago there were less fans in than we had... mad (but great)! Folks were singing along to nearly every song. Our guitarist knows he needs to up his game! 1 Quote
rushbo Posted April 3, 2023 Posted April 3, 2023 What are the chances of a gig in the Midlands? Pretty please and thankyou. Quote

warwickhunt Posted April 3, 2023 Author Posted April 3, 2023 Thanks for the info @rushbo However... unless I can find a playable TP 12 string it will be 'sound-a-like'! 1 Quote
Adee Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 Loving the latest videos, you're sounding excellent, will certainly catch you if you are around my neck of the woods or if you are around when I pop 'home' for the weekend. I see 'Rick' still hasn't embraced the look, a bit of checkered material and a few patches and he'd look the biz! Quote
warwickhunt Posted September 20, 2023 Author Posted September 20, 2023 Yeah, we need to kick his backside but he gets the guitar parts great! 23-09-16 He's a whore.mp4 1 Quote
