Let's start a Kraftwerk Tribute Band!

[MarquisMatsugae]

Saw them both last year and they were both excellent.

Whilst Kraftwerk are probably the instigators of modern electronic music Human League were out there in '78

Brilliant song which I will download to my phone.Forgot how good it was.
This however is another belter IMO,and is actually on my phone.

Out of all the great Kraftwerk songs,this was my favourite.A lot less complex but good all the same.

Tribute bands can be problematic......
A friend of mine has two favourite artists, Dire Straits and Chris Rea, so he formed a band that covered their songs and he called the band
Dire Rea.
He also threw in an old Wings number....Band on the Run.

There's a slightly less reverent cover by Sheffield funsters "The Everley Pregnant Brothers, documenting the singer's trauma as he gets busy with a product from Airfix.

I fired up the website to get tickets for the Oxford gig and they want £83 each. Bugger that, the ones in Bilbao cost me 30euros. What a rip off. ouo will be sitting down too, so no boogying which kills the mood anyway. Lets hope they headline Bluedot and I will see them there instead.

Given that no legit copies are available (Ralf Hutter did comment in interviews when the remasters came out that there were plans to reissue those three, but…) I'd hazard a guess at none. But I for one would certainly buy them.
