Good names for Tribute Bands

Birneybau · 2011-07-26 15:31:48

Listening to an old Adam & Joe podcast earlier, they were talking about real and potential funny names for tribute acts, for example "The Faux Fighters", "An Ode to Joy Division" etc. Anybody else got any good ones, real or made up?

There's a Whitesnake tribute act out there called Snakebite (named for a very old Whitesnake EP).

Def Leppard have an all-female tribute band called The Leppardettes, as far as I know...

there is(was?) a Boney M tribute act called Boney Empire - I couldn't believe they hadn't called themselves Phony M

also, The Joshua Trio, though they weren't so much a tribute as a pisstake
