Just out of interest will we each get a badge with our username/real name on it? Just for ease of identifying each other etc. Sorry if this has been covered in the past but this is the first one I can actually make!

Paul, don't forget to bring that black Scavenger with you

Bumping for our November gigs! [b][u]November[/u] 5th Newcastle ‘Legends’ 6th Glasgow Garage ‘Rock RadioBonfire Bash’ – w/Gallus Cooper, Judus Beast & Non-Jovi 19th Witney – ‘Fat Lils’ 20th Swindon ‘The Furnace’ (different set list to Witney as venues are reasonably close) [/b]

M original sunburst pre-Kramer 'Spector NS2'.... My first Spector.... and it would be the 'one'...

+1 to all that Wil said... I personally prefer the Spector.... the only Warwick Streamer that would come close (IMHO) is an original 80's one...

Chicago, Doobie Brothers or KISS.... Or Toy matinee (if Guy Pratt didn't mind stepping aside!)

Wow! Congrats!

[quote name='skankdelvar' post='981641' date='Oct 8 2010, 02:45 PM']Say what you like about the monstrous record companies of yore but they acted as a fairly efficient sh*t filter. Now that every self-deluding spod and his mate has got garageband, the netz is an arse-flood of derivative, badly executed material with all the appeal of a nasty case of projectile leprosy. I'd be perfectly happy to see a revival of interest in 'Originals' if the output was any good. It isn't.[/quote] +1 to all that!

Get a Sansamp RBI or RPM and a sufficiently loud Power Amp

Obviously you can't expect every band member to be a lookalike... but some thought given to clothes/famous moves/choreography and overall presentation is required. As is sounding as CLOSE to the original act as possible.

[quote name='Linus27' post='978169' date='Oct 5 2010, 11:50 AM']Thanks cetera. When you say semi pro, that means that you make a living out of it but not quite enough to be fully supportive and need another form of income yes???[/quote] Linus, I make some 'pocket money' from it, that is all. I have a full time job...

What band/artist do you cover? [b]"KISS"..... and in another tribute band - "Madness" Coming soon - depping with a 'Dio' tribute and forming a 'Chicago' tribute[/b] Are you pro or just for fun? [b]Semi-Pro[/b] How many gigs do you get a year? [b]Approx 20 - 25[/b] What type of gigs do you do – pubs, clubs, weddings, private parties, festivals etc? [b]Clubs, Academies, Uni's, Weddings, Private Parties, Corporate Events, Festivals etc[/b] Are the gigs packed or various? [b]150 - 10,000 people[/b] Do you have an agent or do you manage yourselves? [b]Self managed[/b] Do you act and dress the part or just play the songs? [b]The full monty. If it's just playing the songs it's a COVERS band NOT a tribute...[/b]

I'll give you £450 for it... and four packs of strings...!

She's OK.... Shame she took all the credit for her first album 'Tuesday Night Music Club' when most of it was actually written by other people including the late, great Kevin Gilbert.... :/

Bumping for this weekend's gigs: [b]Fri 1st Oct - Grimsby 'Yardbirds' Sat 2nd Oct - Sutton In Ashfield 'The Diamond''[/b]

Looking great!
