It's a no from me, but then I wouldn't have gone if it was the original artists, with the exception of Queen.

Looks a good line up to me. Be interesting for me to compare pretend Queen with the real thing I saw at Knebworth.

We go and watch a few tribute bands, but there’s not any on the bill that I would go and see.
Certainly not something I’d travel down for, but does seem like a reasonable spread of bands so may appeal to anyone living local

Don't shoot the messenger but the poster the club have put up potentially breaks rules. The Tribute acts should be placed above who they are tributing. The reason being an unsuspecting punter (they do exist) could believe that Coldplay and Adele are actually playing rather than the actual acts in smaller font.

I assume a load of our 'fans' on twitter are now vigorously trying to get the club charged and fined in relation to this.  Roll Eyes

Probably on the event organiser that one.

Yeah, not the club's fault. But I do wonder if there is some loophole. Fake festival is well established and has the same look

I know you aren't being serious but as Chalkies said, it's almost certainly on the organiser. Which begs a different question.

Might be because the name of the event tells you it isn't the real acts.

That's true. I dunno, it was just something I was told that sounded interesting. Perhaps it's something and nothing. I probably should have kept it closed!

yeah the name of it and saying tribute festival supersedes the other rule I should think. One off gigs though I can imagine that to be the rule.

Although why anyone would think Oasis were playing The Vic for example is another matter.

About 2009 our Freshers' Week was headlined by Kins of Leon. Multiple people thought it was a typo, and a band that were headlining Glastonbury/Reading were playing a midsize provincial university fresher's night. People aren't particularly critical.
