Tav Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 No you are not...it's just poop. I dunno I think someone could do Nirvana covers. Maybe an uplugged cover set or something would be cool...I can't support look-a-like bands though <shudder> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy pixie Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 I went to see them. Ok, but nothing special. A lot of the songs didn't sound quite right (cough out of tune cough). Saw a diffirent nirvana tribute band last year called 'teen spirit' at the lemon tree. They were really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tav Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Why is that people get scorned for doing Nirvana but it's ok to do songs by other bands? Too recent? Is it just not cool in your books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NARC Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Its not ok at all, lest of all Nirvana. People in cover bands so seriously wisen up; they obviously are empty people who have no creative impulse to emulate their "heroes". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 What about being in a band and playing an cover or two within your set because you find it fun? That's personally what I'd like to do. Maybe just one song that fits nicely with your own music or something you can do you own take on...but would people still bitch if that song was a Nirvana song?

NARC Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 The odd cover is ok if it means a lot to you, but trying to be someone you're not is pointless; i think if you ever want to do something worthwhile with music then you have to compose yourself. I like Nirvana, In Utero is a very decent album, but they are too hyped and Nirvana tributes are ridiculous and too obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 i disagree i dont think theres anything wrong with being in a cover band. If you get the enjoyment out of it and so do the people who come to watch whats wrong with that?Isnt that what being in a band is for at the end of the day.

lazy pixie Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Say what you want - you do get decent cover bands. Yes, these people can sometimes be complete crap on toast, but I have gone to covers that I enjoyed. Another thing - lots of bands do cover songs during a set (not cover bands, just out of respect for a song) and have sounded good.Anyway, it's not like I'm going to see the real nirvana playing soon, is it? I love listening to their albums, and going to live concerts is fun. So why should I be ashamed of going?*rant finished* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 cover / tribute bands can be really good. The billy shears are great. Although i walked past drummonds and heard cobain, and they sounded pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
