I concurr. I'd rather listen to a band that plays great Stones rather than spending a lot of time to look like the Stones.
Also, the Donkeys are fans, real ones, rather than average-Joe musicians that happen to look like Keith or Bill (poor guy the on ethat looks like Bill).
I'd take a band of fans everyday rather than a band of pro's.
If I want pros I go see the real thing, as we're all fans the Donkeys are paying an hommage to the Stones, not milking the cow like those tribute bands do.
