Led Zeppelin, you can't find a better band to pay homage to.
I kind of question whether to say this or not, but it's almost like the Allman Brothers turned into an Allman Brothers tribute band.
The best AC/DC cover I've heard? There was an all-girl cover band in America, the Hell's Belles.
I'm doing a pilot for Comedy Central with the band Steel Panther. They're faux heavy metal. They started as kind of a tribute band out here, or a cover band, and they're funny guys, and they just sort of morphed into their own thing.
I was very humbled by the 'one-man Led Zeppelin' comparisons.
I didn't form a group to perform Cilla Black songs.
Not only was it enough to be a cover band, it was perhaps the highest calling. After all, if you could play music recorded by others, stay true to the original, and still add fire and flare, why not?
Kerrang asked us to do a heavy metal tribute to one of our favorite heavy metal bands. We had already been jamming out on 'Walk,' so we're like, 'OK. We'll record it for you guys.'
I was actually in a Take That tribute band.
There's nothing sadder than being in a tribute band - especially a tribute band for your own thing you did originally.
I don't like when I see bands that are just a memory of what they used to be, and there's a few out there that I've seen recently that are still touring... I'm not gonna name them, but some of the members can barely play their parts, and then they have a lot of other members that weren't even originally in the band.
