THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY FAITH NO MORE TRIBUTE BANDS

I’ve been sitting here, waiting and wishing for these damn FNM tour dates to be announced so I can finally think about something else….and my friend sends this my way: A Small Victory, a FNM tribute band from right here in Brooklyn.  AWESOME!  Sort of.  They sound kinda ehhh.  Well, they have a show at Club Europa with a PRIMUS tribute band next Friday.  I’m not sure I can go, but…dude.

There’s a bunch more FNM tributes out there.  Here are the ones I know of:

Fake No More:  Netherlands.

The Fake Thing:  Chicago.

Woodpecker From Mars:  Santa Barbara.

Musically, they’re all…whatever, but those damn vocalists are pretty set on trying to mimic Mike Patton as best they can.  What sorts of people are these that spend a good chunk of their time pretending to be Mike Patton?  What goes through their mind?  Maybe I should try to score an interview with A Small Victory’s singer….get inside his head a little.  I guess it’s about as close as I’ll get to the real thing.  Snort, snort.

Aaand with that, I shall leave you with something topical that I found on the Faith No More 2.0 blog.  They are totally TEAM CONAN.

As for me….I’m an old lady who can’t even stay up that late anymore, anyway.
