Tribute bands?

Post by Midwestmetalgod »

Anyone score or go after a tribute band guy or gal? Take the fantasy since the real thing wasn't available? Or say you'd rather be with 1977 Paul Stanley than 2015, or 1984 Vince Neil than the current version.

A good friend of mine is in fairly well-known tributes for GnR, Motley Crue, and has been in tributes for Metallica and Dream Theater. I've been out partying with those guys a few times, and believe me, they have no problem getting women. A lot of women. Kinda makes me rethink my stance on not playing in a tribute band...

I heard that Sleek had a thang with the singer in his k.d. lang tribute band.

I've been approached several times, being Gene Simmons has its perks, and a decent tribute band can also make some good cash. The two years my Kiss tribute played the midwest we made a good chunk of change and got to play some big venues to good crowds. It's like getting to put on Superman's cape.

Agreed. I've done the tribute thing for a bit and it was most amusing :D

Tribute bands suck, so NO I would not hook up with someone in one, even if it is a national touring tribute band. And who would want to be with current Vince Neil? I'll take Paul Stanley today, tomorrow and yesterday. :D
