    I take it it was a tribute band. Nice surprise nonetheless.

    it was a mate's band so not really surprising. They used to be an Iron Maiden tribute act but they decided the songs were too hard to play so this is their new direction.

    It was a biker rally. I don't realise that biker chicks still existed in this day and age but they do.

    I suppose it earns them a buck or two, but I've always had this idea that tribute acts are a bit tragic. Still, they may be wonderful .

    It draws a parallel I suppose, to acting. Imagine going through life only being known for pretending not to be oneself.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    sort of agree but they've all got day jobs. They did this for free as it was charity event for British Heart Foundation.

    If you want to do your own stuff you need a good songwriter so doing a tribute is a good way to have a bit of fun without having to take it seriously.

    In London today visiting art galleries, brought cash as I lost my bankcard, and it was almost impossible to buy some food, looks like cash will be finished soon for good. Tate Britain is amazing, much better than Tate modern which is always packed, on weekends anyway.

    And especially the art itself which is much better in the Tate Britain.
