*grin* yeah, I knew only an Aussie would get that one. You know, I recently bought a CD I already had to get the words to Mr Damage ? Every set of words I've seen for that song on the web, are totally, totally wrong. And then they didn't play it when I saw them in Adelaide last week. Great live band tho ( they finished with Take a Long Line )

Hehe, I thought that sounds like something from ColdPlay for sure! Guess I was wrong :)
xacc.ide - now with TabsToSpaces support
IronScheme - 1.0 beta 1 - out now!
((lambda (x) `((lambda (x) ,x) ',x)) '`((lambda (x) ,x) ',x))Nope, the Angels were IMO the best Aussie pub rock band ever, way better than AC/DC, they mostly didn't do as well b/c their lyrics were too intelligent.

Well done. I saw these guys at Rocklahoma and they were *amazing*. I got the idea to do this quiz b/c I was practicing the solo to that song, sitting here waiting for source code to upload to a server. The songs are all songs I can play BTW, that's why I asked if people would see a band that covered those songs, it's my planned setlist.

Given the talent, variety and extremity of the bands represented even in the songs we recognize I'd say any cover band attempting all these would either be so unmissable as to be stars in their own right or absolutely awfull which is much more likely. One of the reasons that Metallica remain a legend and G'n'R have a huge fan base after producing nothing for 13+ years is that what they do is unique, it can't be replicated or surpassed by others let alone a cover band. So no I would not go to see a cover band fail to live up to the performances required to emulate these greats, but if somebody trully could, you couldn't drag me away. :)

Going on your song choice...Does your vocalist do a passable Axl Rose, Sebastian Bach and Bruce Dickinson??? In answer to your question - I'd be there in a flash if he did! That would be some set vocal wise :)
