Advertising of Tribute bands
A local venue near me is always advertising tribute bands as the real thing for example coming up soon is
Rod Stewart / Westlife & Boyzone and they use actual pictures of the real artist on massive posters.
What do poeople think of this as on their website they say it's a tribute. I know only the dumb would think that the real thing is there but come on it always makes me chuckle.

Yep, but if you notice they are using images of the real thing and when it will come up to it they will have a big awning outside saying "Peter Kay appearing" ???Pete wrote:There's a Peter Kay tribute?

That wasn't the question....Dan bach wrote:I'm on record for my loathing of tribute/cover bands.
I think it's basically laziness on the part of the venue and is also opportunistic... but often is out of the bands control...
