If I saw any of these bands swaggering down the street towards me I'd certainly piss myself... laughing

(slight Walker Brothers vibe from that last one which slightly saves them though)

Well look on the bright side, at least none of these bands will fall foul of a club's 'no trainers' rule. The 'no looking like a complete twonk' rule might be a problem however.

"Well, if you're going to be like that, we're going home!"

sometime in 2033: "This is what your dodgy uncle looked like twenty years ago!"

See, I did wonder if that first picture was those twunts Kasabian or just some twunts trying to look like Kasabian... and I still have no idea.

kubichek photo does not belong here

if i knew which one was which i could maybe agree but i can't spot any odd ones out

as i scrape further down the barrel i'm finding that the bottom-feeders usually have one guy who hasn't quite got the look down

That last pic has somebody doing the look down.

every band pictured here are better than the smiths tbh

the key to having the swagger of Oasis is looking like you huffed too much gas at some point in your life.

no way do The Last Shadow Puppets belong here.

Our music is easy to listen to, nothing complicated, just great, positive tunes, obviously influenced by core bands like the Beatles, Oasis, and the Stone Roses. But for me personally, we are all about the songs.

"Yea definitely, the industry’s a bit too squeaky clean, and has been for quite a bit now. Hopefully we can give it a kick up the arse. Especially with The Stones Rose(sic), and Noel Gallaghers new albums sort of taking off quite big, hopefully it will be a big surge and not just one band – a movement bringing guitar bands back. Hopefully we can be involved in that." Tom from The Modern Faces.

Every month is white guitar band history month

such a horrifying thread title.

There is a well-established Oasis tribute band called Oasish already (checks: since 2004!) - presumably this so-not-gonna-happen festival could only afford the Oasish tribute band, not the Oasis tribute band.

THE SMITHS

Am hoping Germany has a tribute band called The Schmidts.

what's the even smaller subtitle on (the) JAMES (experience) ?

Am hoping Germany has a tribute band called Jakob.

Born of Frustration xp

he's ready

Nosferatu has put on some weight

xp guessing that was their original name & it didn't prompt enough punters

just give up and change it to This Bed Is On Fire With Passion And Love, lads

Clearly the only correct name would be OH SIT DOWN and shut up

I feel like I got the VIP upgrade already by virtue of the fact that I will be 400 miles away

all-female tribute act She Only Comes When She’s On Top (formerly Jamie)

Does Clint Boon look at that line-up and feel aggrieved or relieved that there is no Inspiral Carpets tribute band I wonder?

i think one of the inspiral carpets actually ended up playing in an inspiral carpets tribute act

Yep - Tom Hingley and the Kar-pets

will have to update the tribute band thread tomorrow, but yes, the band reformed in 2011 with the original original singer; five years later the popular-era singer formed a tribute band called Kar-Pets.

Am hoping Germany has a tribute band called The Schmidts.

German tribute bands: Still Collins, The Quarrymen Beatles,Motörblöck and pictured below Goldplay Live

ty for that pic

Clint Boon has been one of the earliest & most dedicated baggy tribute DJs, and iirc also ran nostalgia bus tours in Manchester? certainly big enough to keep his ex-singer off the bill if they still hate each other

Imagine this being the actual video you use to promote yourselves

take it away, chris

Guy on the left in the Goldplay Live pic (guessing he's the drummer) looks like an escapee from Germany's biggest Winger tribute, Schwinger.

"... it’s fair to say that Creation Records founder Alan McGee has a nose for up-and-coming guitar bands. The Clockworks first came to his attention in 2019 when guitarist Sean Connelly messaged him on Instagram, saying: “McGee: We’re the punk rock version of the Streets.” McGee was impressed enough by a demo to go and see one of their rehearsals at home in Galway, at which frontman James McGregor performed with such intensity that he broke his mic stand. McGee felt it was the best rehearsal he’d seen since early Oasis, and signed them that night."

the streets reference is almost edgy in - yet somehow also absolutely perfect for - this context

"frontman James McGregor performed with such intensity that he broke his mic stand"

“I can’t see them failing.”

Oy! McGee! No!

Where is that kid John Lennon McCartney or whatever his name was today?

We should do a poll of the one hundred-and-some crap acts Alan has gassed up as 'The Next..' whoever.

God knows which hapless chancer he was talking about that week.

I also had this sponsored post appear on facebook the other day, which seemed ripe for this thread from the name and photo alone.

The Sherlocks, out standing in their (dad's) field. I dread to think what their MASSIVE ANNOUNCEMENT was.

"... it’s fair to say that Creation Records founder Alan McGee has a nose for up-and-coming guitar bands."

The last 20-odd years of his career suggests otherwise.

Still dining out on Oasis I see (who he apparently didn't even want to sign, so legend has it).

I see he's still going but has dropped the Lennon. He was probably encouraged to play up to his full given name. Poor get

Poor in so many ways.

wasn't there a thread where we posted album covers with musicians leaning against brick walls?

just noting the swagger

"So Keir, do you prefer Oasis or The Stone Roses?"

I know he's not very tall, but he looks about 5'6 there.

I bet he felt much more comfortable bending the knee a little bit closer to the camera than Angela was!

did he ever say which he prefers

it's still at the "what dogshit-music authentocrat pols are supposed to like" focus group

Kieth would obviously take Oasis over Stone Roses.

I don't know, doesn't he claim he was an 80s indie kid?

would explain the racism

... and Northern Soul, so Stone Roses seems more likely, though I don't believe anything he says about anything.

I believe him when he says he likes the pigs

Made it to 89 in the charts apparently
