There's a venue where I live in Richmond, VA that books tribute bands ALL the time. Like every other show is a GD tribute band (Journey, LZ, Nirvana/Pearl Jam, even Michael Jackson).

The popular GNR cover band 'round here is called Rocket Queen fronted by Blaxel Rose.

ZoSo comes around a lot too.

our drummer was in a tribute band for awhile called 'Ultimate Oz' the band sounded like the recordings but the singer sounded like Ozzys little brother but it was cool.

I still like Dread Zeppelin....lol
Oh and Hayseed Dixie......AC/DC cover band....these are both real bands for those unenlightened....check 'em out they are pretty funny.

Thing is though Hayseed Dixie do everyone. Played here last year I think. Their version of Queens Fat Bottom Girls is great.
