Not a tribute or covers band in anyway but Monkey House openly base their style on the aforementioned Steely Dan. Donald endorses them. Five albums, only one of which not quite up to par. Brilliant.

I kid you not but we saw The Hamsters live years ago, they done a Jimi Hendrix set then a ZZ Top set, they were nailed on really nailed the gig at The Corn Exchange, Newbury. I normally wouldn't bother with that sort of thing but I'm glad we went.
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

Years back, I was in a band that entered The Whitbread Search For A Star. Mostly tribute bands. The heats were in the Pavilion. The woman running it said âoh, Colin, would you like to introduce the boys in the band ?â I said âno, they already know each otherâ Yer wouldn't have thought it given the performance.

Voting just closed in the all-important Makerfield by-election. I was trying to complete my country album âBakersfield to Makerfieldâ but no luck. Well, we'll get the result tomorrow.

A band called malice were very good. Saw them in a packed half moon, Putney, and caught Covid in there, a month before lockdown was even announced as a thing.
That didnât get on news at ten.

Looking forward to the review in the Melody Makerfield.

Living in rural France we don't get any name bands. Local (12 kms) bar has put on a whole series. Last year we had a Pink Floyd, U2 and Simple Minds. This year we've already had Stoned, French Stones cover. Upcoming are Foo Fighters and Pink.
We've seen Australian Pink Floyd 3 times. Excellent. And Dire Straits Experience, with the original sax player from the real Dire Straits. Also saw Coldplayed, a French tribute, who were pretty good.
Aussie PF probably the best.

Top drawer live I had to copy their description from Wiki as it's a hard one to explain
"Elvis-fronted Nirvana is a British crossover tribute band which performs the music of American grunge band Nirvana in the style of an Elvis impersonator."

The night I saw The Smyths at The Ship in Kilburn (QPR fan John Mc used to run the place) the band were celebrating the fact that as of that night, they had outlasted The Smiths!
I think they've broken up now, but they were brilliant.
