a mix between The Stone Roses and Primal Scream with the swagger of Oasis

Early noughties trance act goes Balearic

Matey looks ready to twat you one with that guitar if you say owt about his shirt.

My son just told me he and his mates call them Giam Lallaghers that he counted 11 at his last gig.

I'd shed nine

is that jim davidson on the far right

(jim davidson has always been on the far right ofc)

John "Politics Safari" Harris top right too

Savile's not dead, he's gone into hiding as a Paul Weller fan.

there are at least two fake/not fake Saviles in that image

Centre left perhaps a little overconfident in the ability of cheap cava to lure ageing indie chicks back to one's chalet at Shine Weekender.

Somehow never envisioned 2021 to include laughing at a Goldie Lookin' Chain sea shanty about Paul Weller hairdos.

At first I thought it was just a collection of Paul Weller candids

does this haircut style have a name?

TS: whatever this is vs the Mullet

Wellet.

Men With Bangs

I can identify the nationality of British guys in Central Park and the Met by their haircut alone most of the time. You see these guys with really short hair, almost like a crewcut, but with short little bangs it looks SO WEIRD or at least it's uncommon here for men and boys with very short hair to wear it so forward idk... Like when you say "men with bangs" I equate that with moderately longish hair or shaggy hair.

The tiny "DJ sets from" section at the side contains a more impressive lineup than any of the headliners.

VIP & TOILET UPGRADES AVAILABLE

Surely Oas-ish is a better name?

CUNT BOON

OAS-ISH ft Steve McLaren as Bonehead

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

(tiny letters)
ltd

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.

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/mar/20/one-to-watch-the-clockworks-galway-alan-mcgee

"... 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
