I am intrigued by Becky Hill - she's the guest vocalist on loads of recent dance pop hits, the kind that are designed to be big rather than organically growing from club culture. She's on the TOTP Xmas special every year and her voice is actively unpleasant and she seems a really bland performer, to the point where I genuinely don't understand how she's managed to sustain any kind of career.
― boxedjoy, Tuesday, 30 March 2021 09:10 (three years ago) link
she has the ultimate indie girl voice - it's all these affected mannerisms and nothing else, then when she tries to belt it out for a bit her voice sounds like it's cracking, there is just nothing good there. At least with Jessie J she could actually sing when she needed to.

Hoping this doesn't clash with the Hay Festival, Boab has his memoir to promote.

What made you decide on playing guitar?"That is very easy.... Girls !"
2) What types of music inspire you?"80's hair metal , and good praise music !"
3) Why a Def Leppard tribute band??"Because they have had such an impact on music , and have become one of the top Rock Bands in history. Their appeal attracts both young and old. They also have such an incredible catalog of music to choose from. And then there's the fact that they are my all time Favorite Band!"
4) Whats your most embarrassing moment on stage?" My most embarrassing moment was playing and Adult Biker Rally and while we were setting up to go on , they were having a Male Contest where the Men were in Thongs or even less. Pretty Gross !! "
5) What is your home town?" Dallas Texas the One and Only !"
― P-Zunit (Neanderthal), Friday, 16 April 2021 04:03 (three years ago) link
3) Why the name Def Leggend?"Def Leppard is truly a legendary band so I think "LEGGEND" fits perfectly. The double “G’s” have a great Leppard-style look."

pls tell me Jett Threat is a Joan Jett tribute band, that will redeem things slightly

― soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Friday, 23 April 2021 15:42 (three years ago) link
did my own research and, yes, it is:
JETT THREATTA TRIBUTE TO JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTSBased out of Cedar Rapids, IA, this band is dedicated to the #1 Woman in Rock & Roll - the one and only Joan Jett. Joan Jett is an originator, an innovator and a visionary. As the leader of the hard-rocking Blackhearts, with whom she has become a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, she’s had eight platinum and gold albums and nine Top 40 singles, including the classics "Bad Reputation," "I Love Rock N' Roll," "I Hate Myself For Loving You," and "Crimson and Clover."

Certainly a distressing fall-off between evening and afternoon slots there on each day, I'm guessing Cowboys From Hell, Dressed To Kill and Fresh Fighters are all tributes too (not going to research it mind).

On the other hand, I assume most of these acts are made up placeholders, and that no one will notice when someone else is there in their place. Also, Journey *&* Limp Bizkit.

behave.this is a far better line up than anything available in the uk seeing as no small/medium international bands can afford to come here now.

"Limp Bizkit" slightly too short to fit the spacing

Tyler's been on a bunch of hits over the last few years and Yonkers is ten years old now, which has slowly gained canonical status

I asked my 13-year old if she saw the Lollapalooza line-up, and she said "no, who's playing?" I told her "Limp Bizkit," and she literally did a spit take, spraying milk out of her nose and mouth in hysterics. After she calmed down and cleaned things up, she asked me, "is there really a band called Limp Bizkit?! Who names a band Limp Bizkit?!" Then I played her "Rollin'" and she cracked up again.
