I guess it all began with the Broadway show Beatlemania, which opened in 1977.

Lame, just really lame. To put so much energy into trying to be someone else? Why not justy try to carve out your own niche of original music. I would never make a point to see one of these unoriginal bands.
It's OK to be strongly influenced by a band, I like some of the bands like Collectice Soul and the guys who play Plush showing their Led Zep influences but a tribute band? Too much else to do in this short life. Sorry, not for me. peace

the WHY of it is that you can make a lot more money in a tribute band than you can playng original music. (That is to say, you can actually make some.) I think even gary cherone (late of extreme & van halen) was in a Who tribute band for a while lately.

TOTALLY AGAINST THEM.
If you respected the "star" or the band, just play their music.
I don't want FAKE Elvis, Jimi, Beatles, Stones, Springsteen, Dylan, Stevie Wonder etc.
