Best Tribute Band

kingconor

Who is the best tribute band you have ever seen?
Mine would have to be The Rubber Plants (Led Zep), they're amazing!!
If you get the chance to see them, do, you'll be blown away!!

Lemming

Thin Az Lizzy.

Where did you see them last night superconor? I didn't even know they were playing

Karl Hungus

Only one I think I saw was 'Mr. Brownstone' GnR tribute.
They were pretty good.

But I dont really go for cover/tribute bands at all...

Thin az Lizzy (Thin Lizzy tribute from Louth??)
Live Wire (AC/DC tribute from Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan)
Whiplash (Metallica tribute from Castleblaney, Co. Monaghan)
Metallitia (Metallica tribute from ??)
Teranova (Nirvana tribute from Kingscourt/Shercock, Co. Cavan)

These are some of the best bands I've seen anyway.

Live Wire, any dates for them coming close to cork ? Be they as good as you say I'd be mad to miss em

the best crowd ive seen so far are AB/CD. They did a gig in Nancy Spains [cork] and stayed withing the Bon era. What was to mind blowing was the lead mans voice. He may as well have been Bon Scott, attitude and all.

a great nite

King of Arrakis

Rubber Plants - hands down, no contest!!!
Gavin Is the man!!!!!

Well I don´t know If they´d be goin that far down the country just as yet but they sure are good. As close as you could come to seeing the real thing. Both the lead guitarist and the vocalist are the image of Brian Johnson and Angus Young. You really have to see them! The singer came up with us on the bus to Ozzfest and he really does live up to the bands name!!

Seraphina

hehe, mr brownstone, i know yer man from that, plays guitar. nice guy.....

anywaaay...

Chada

Seen both maiden england and rubber plants - tbh i thought that maiden england were a better show altogether ( but no disrespect to rubber plants cos their guitarist is amazing! )

Axe

Yea, i saw both Maiden England and the Rubber Plants (Both at Brysons) and they were each amazing. Another excellent tribute band were Hells Bells. They had the AC/DC look down to perfection, and the sound was awesome. That was in Bryson's too come to think of it.

The Australian Doors were absolutely class. Saw them at a Midnight at the Olympia show - might as well have been Mr. Morrison and the boys up on that stage.
