I don't remember if this has come up or not, but has anyone seen this tribute band? Not too shabby. They are also members of 2U the U2 tribute...

Some lyric flubs here and there but whatever...

Those guys are really good. Joe (the guitarist) is a friend of mine, and I've followed 2U for years...I was pleasantly surprised to hear how well Gene was able to pull off a credible Steve Perry.

Wow.... they are good... the guy sounds eerily like Frontiers' SP.
With that voice, I can see they would pull off U2 very credibly.... a Bono knock-off.
This videos are taken at Rams Head MD...AR's part of the country... wonder if he has gone to any of their shows.

Cool, Jeremey! I'm a huge fan of Joe's brother Ant and Joe's musical stuff like 2U as well haha.

Wow! They are damn good! Very tight and able to pull together a really crisp sound for being in a live venue setting. That said, I'm absolutely stunned they are using prerecorded keyboard tracks rather than actually having a keyboardist. Then again, it's not like Journey stuff is keyboard heavy or anything... :roll: :lol: That's a definite first - a Journey trib band consisting of 4 members and no keyboardist... seriously odd.

Yeah, but they get the job done and it's probably easier for them to do it that way especially because they double as both 2U and the Journey tribute. I wouldn't do a Journey tribute without a real keyboardist, but I can give these guys a break. They are pretty honest about it in their promo video.

Very impressive musicianship. Good, tight sound. But they should prerecord their backing vocals instead of the keyboards.
