Guy Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Anybody know anything about Whitesnake tribute bands in the North East?

Would there be interest in a project like this?All the best for 2009Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatboy Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 is there market for it?why not get some guys together and get some original material. at least if people like your music they will be complimenting your music and you not performing other peoples tracks.if you are keen on a tribute band then consider having a cover bands doing various songs of different bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with a cover/tribute people know what they are getting from the word go. I did the "originals" thing for around 8 years and it did beging to grind after a while when you know it's not really taking off any further than your back door. Yes playing your own tracks is a buzz but there comes a time when you have to ask....where are we going with it?I just love playing music and enjoy it and more often than not the best way to do that is by playing in a covers band/tribute band. In my opinion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bailz Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Was doing the Whitesnake thing last year and found it near impossible to find a singer capable. Good luck with it if you manage to get it off the ground, I'd be interested in seeing it happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juicebox Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Hey Guy. If not Whitesnake....are there any other bands which you be up for covering? Aerosmith? Skid Row? Vocals again may be a sticking point. Motley Crue? Velvet Revolver? etc etc...I'd be up for something along those lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
