Tribute bands - where the name is better than the band

I used to love Beatallica.. A mash up of The Beatles and Metallica.

There's a local band here who play punk songs on Ukuleles called The Pukes.

I guess there's The Iron Maidens, the all-female Iron Maiden tribute.

I do recall going to see The Lightness, a tribute to The Darkness, but I have to say they were light in all facets. Look, sound, effort and ability.

This wasn't a tribute band either but I believe Wilf started in Ken Dodd's Dad's Dog's Dead. One of my favourite band names.

My favourite band name is a local band called Richard Stilgoe's Wheelbarrow Full of MIlk 😀

 

I was in a Black Sabbath tribute band, being Scottish we went under the name of Mac Sabbath - easily about 100 tonnes of PA and lights, wigs, the whole shooting match

 

Quite possibly uniquely, we were our own warm up act as we also went out as Das Rainbow - our singer, affectionately known as Baldy Jim was of similar stature to Ronnie James Dio

Not a band, but gotta love the red-and-white-branded Ken’s Fried Chicken in Southsea.

And Carl’s Burgers, a van that i’d often see parked up serving take away on the A11. I think they were actually served a notice to change the logo but they fought and won the case to keep theirs!
