Apologies if this has been posted before. Props to the band for getting a drummer that looks like Steve Smith circa 1981. Makes up for the fact that the singer looks lik Michael stipe in a tail coat. Great version though.

Good singing and playing. No tails, though.
Perry in tails = Awesome look...HIS signature look.
When tribute bands wear them = cheesy ploy to emulate......looks silly.
They should just concentrate on performing the music as well as they can and dress as themselves, imo.

He has zero risk of ever singing for the real thing. He'd have to wear a wig all the time!

I'm sure someone will fill me in on the history here, but to me the singer should be doing his own stuff.

I don't think this singer is that close to Perry in terms of a soundalike, but he is one heck of a singer.

You guys are easy to please, I found the lead singer the weakest link. Seemed kind of weak, good range, just didn't sound powerful like SP, Arnel, JH, etc.
