Thoughts on Cover Bands

Maximus was telling me about a music fest type thing that he was planning on going to made up entirely of cover bands--faux AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Iggy Pop, Guns -n- Roses, and a couple more. Seems like it might be a hoot. It also got me to thinking about what bands might not inspire someone to start up a group as homage to them... hmmmm..
Little River Band, Chicago, Night Ranger (these guys just seem like a cover band anyway), Styx (there probably was back in the day), Pablo Cruise, Atlanta Rhythm Section (though that might prove to be fun). These are just a few that popped into mind. OH OH OH--BREAD!
