I actually used to work with these girls! Their drummer Helen Destroy is quite a bruiser. She was one of my artists at Ddrum, and I even have a Lez Zeppelin T-shirt, and I can send it to you if you want it. Now that I work at Ludwig, I don't get to work with the drummer from Lez Zeppelin, I only get to work with the drummer from LED Zeppelin. I think it is a pretty decent trade. I like Whole Lotta Rosies -an all female tribute to ACDC- better. The Iron Madens kick a good amount of tail as well!
I was really going for a Fozzy Bear "Wakka wakka" kind of thing there... But while we're on the subject of cover bands I'd hate to leave out Nine Inch Neils. They get the nod for best coverband name, ever!
Kev's working with the ghost of John Bonham? Sweet.
My favorite cover band is the Australian Pink Floyd Show. Having seen them twice now--and, considering Rick Wright's dead now--it's as close as you'll ever get to seeing the real thing anymore.
As far as all girl cover bands, the Iron Maidens are pretty B.A., and I've seen some of Hell's Belles, an AC/DC chick group.
I don't work with his ghost, but I do work with his spawn, Zeppelin's current drummer. I was actually working with the APFS drummer as well, as he is also the drummer from an Aussie band called Mondo Rock. Cooler still, I got to work a bit with the dude that is playing with Roger Waters now. Last year when they did Dark Side in its entirety, we got to see and hang with them. The band was STELLAR, and I guarantee as close as I will ever get to seeing Floyd. I still have a backstage pass saved for when I eventually find out the where-abouts of Brook Robinson. Great show with the exception of all the left-ist rubbish Waters was spewing on about before they started Dark Side. Funny thing, the set the giant pig free in the stadium and it got stuck in the rafters. The crew had to leave it there to get to the next show. All I could think of was "YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I'M PISSED OFF, I BOUGHT THAT AT PINK FLOYD'S GARAGE SALE!!!!" The Fab Four still gets my vote for best tribute band, as they pull off a set that even living Beatles can't match! Ironheart kicks ass too!

This is the single greatest thing the human race has ever produced, and that includes Ovaltine.
