Good stuff

[JOEinPHX]

Pros:
Singer probably hasn't mangled face with plastic surgery
Bass player probably moves around and doesn't get mistaken for a brick wall
No suspension artists
Varied setlist
No pews
No Etty
Close enough to Los Angeles that Stephen Perkins is probably actually in the band


Cons:

Maybe Dave and Perry can show and get inspired. That sounded good. Please post some vids of the show.

oh, and it would be great to see a set W/O Mnt Song, Been Caught or Just Because. Just saying!

Oh come on how can they be a tribute band without the hits

[Hokahey]

I've listened to clips of you guys before. You sound great. It's too bad there's no big demand for a Jane's tribute band. You guys could do well for yourselves.

[blackcoffee]

That was cool. It's not lost on me that the two cover bands I've heard of both are female fronted. There's one here in Seattle, too.

[bman]

Yeah its a really good voice for Janes. There should be a rule that only females can cover Perry. Take a stab at Meija too.

hey that was fun and good. welcome to our little community which for you, I think, defines irony. you're working so hard to perform these great songs and have joined a forum where all we do is lament how much jane's disappoints us and especially how funny perry's teeth are.

While looking for more clips from Jane's Addicted, I came across this:



The singer is always the problem. But the musicians are really good

Lol, thanks Turbo. Maybe we're disappointed just because there is so much more untapped potential.

Well done!!! Really nails the early sound. I would love to see this band if they ever hit NYC!

Good luck to you guys!

Hey Effin, whats the hardest Jane's song to replicate?

[Effin_A_Mann]

Hey Effin, whats the hardest Jane's song to replicate?

Good question clickie! As the guitarist I'd say Three Days & Obvious come to mind. I'm sure our vocalist would pick others. But it's really all about getting the proper vibe. For example, Summertime Rolls isn't particularly difficult to play on guitar, but you really have to find and highlight all the nuances lurking in there for it to sound right. And of course all the shredding stuff is a blast! I'm relatively new to the band, not the guy you see on that video.

[clickie]

Right on

Found this out there in the wild. These folks are all in. Well, for three songs, anyway. It has its moments. I actually like that they look like an aging biker hippie doom metal band.
