So what's your concert schedule looking like?

[Dr. Medulla]

Doing the full weekend again. To be part of this is an absolute honour. I wonder if Geldof arrives in a helicopter.

The Bootleg Beatles? Are they from Japan?

They're pretty shit hot actually. Seen them a couple of times and sound more like the Beatles than the Beatles.

Do they have a Yoko in the band?

All bands have a Yoko or two.

Someone has to do the knitting and screeching.

I ask seriously because there was a Japanese Beatles cover band rhat was l over the TV there back in the early 90s. I thought that was their name (Bootleg Beatles). But my memory is pretty hazy from that brief time.

They're Brits. Oasis even had them as a support band at their huge Knebworth gigs in the 90s, which is pretty ironic.

Ha! Indeed. I remember Billy Bragg dismissing Oasis as Britain's most successful Beatles tribute band.

Pretty good lineup, congratulations on you and your band being a part of it.

I've never understood this to be honest. Were they really just a Beatles rip-off. They or at least Noel was a magpie. I hear way more T. Rex/Slade/The Faces than The Beatles. They were big Beatles fans for sure.
Stole Harrison's riff from "My Sweet Lord" for "Supersonic" but then they nicked stuff from all over like from T. Rex "Get it On" for "Cigarettes & Alcohol" and The New Seekers "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing" for "Shakermaker".

I know folks here dislike them but they were more than just a Beatles tribute act. I mean no one seems bothered that Paul Weller stole just as many Beatles things.

The Beatles thing just seems to be a lazy assertion.

Of course it's lazy. Oasis aren't a band worth bringing out the snark A-game.

Thanks for clearing that up.

The horrible realization is that seemingly I think KISS are worth raising my snark game. Or maybe Heston makes it worth it. Regardless, it's discomforting.

It's a hard life at times. Yet somehow we get by.

[JennyB]

Heston - that is super cool. Congrats!

[Flex]

Yeah, congrats Heston! Very cool!

[Kory]

Nice work in Hestonia!
