Deftones UK and Audioslaved
First of all, I’d like to start off by announcing that I am
also now the drummer in another tribute band, Deftones UK, UK tribute to Deftones. Only
recently started, we’ve had just the one gig, and along with the epic feedback
from this gig, we’ve also got five or six new gigs for this year and a few into
early next year. Whey! Aswell as this, I and the bassplayer and guitarist from
TMRO have teamed up with one Nick Steven, as a tribute to Audioslave, called
Audioslaved. Although it may be in a slight niche in the market, we probably won’t
be pressing further with this band after the next gig which is in Burnley.
Shout out to the Sanctuary Rock Bar!
Also recently, I’ve played a number of rather large festival
gigs with The Machine Rages on! WV1Fest, Boltfest and Festwich! All of which
are festivals in tribute to big names, anything from Madness through to Limp Bizkit.
And run by the same group, these events are considerably larger gigs than I’ve
ever played before. Just a few photos here...
I would absolutely love Deftones UK to play these gigs too. Maybe
even alongside TMRO, which would be a proper workout for me, two sets in three
hours! Challenge accepted. Deftones UK
are of course gigging elsewhere, Manchester, Burnley and Bradford plus more,
our next being Bradford! Let us know what you think!
