I’m listening to an 80s covers band. It’s awful. But most of the 80s was awful.
I started thinking of covers bands. This is the list of Rush covers bands.

Who knew? I’ve seen a Beatles tribute band. It was OK.
Ever seen any Tribute bands?

Said Peter...what you're requesting just isn't my bag
Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late
Turn stone to bread, said Daemon Duncetan
Turn stone to bread right away...

Re: Who knew? Tribute bands
Never seen a tribute act other than fake Elvis', but I used to be in a band with the bass player and drummer of 'Off the Wall' - a passable Pink Floyd tribute act.

Re: Who knew? Tribute bands
That might be the exception. I've seen Genesis with Gabriel in 1974 or so, so any tribute would be fake. But I would go see a Pink Floyd tribute band. Roger Waters still tours but closest gig was 3 hrs drive away last time.

Re: Who knew? Tribute bands
I saw Aussie Pink Floyd, they were very good. Of course I was on a heavy regimen of pharmaceuticals.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Re: Who knew? Tribute bands
Another Floyd one --there seem to be several-- was in Houston recently. I saw it and then forgot about it.

A short drive or even walk to the lake let's me listen to anyone playing at the pavilion. Not too long ago my son and I fished and listened to Cheap Trick.

Re: Who knew? Tribute bands
I went to a bar in Madison WI in 1975 or 6 and heard a covers band playing. They really sucked at covers, but they had a bit of fun and were dressed a little goofy. I left after one set. They were Cheap Trick. The following years revealed there were no bars to play in their home town of Rockford IL, so they became a Madison fixture. Their first LP came out while they still played our clubs. Rick Nielsen was often an MC announcer. I think I heard him announce Elvis Costello once.
