Tell you what mind The Karrots recently made a comeback and sold a few tickets. They sold out three nights at Princess Royal Theatre and headlined Cwmavon Music Festival.
The first ever recipient of a Planet Swans Lifetime Achievement Award.

I'm not sure you're properly entering into the spirit of this, Ebo...
When worst was mentioned, it was the first thing that popped into my mind.
Erm ok..worst has to be the multitude of valleys jukebox bands that plague the gig circuit of the cynon valley. "Ow butt, how about some 'phonics or King of leon en?"

Ghastly.

The sad thing is that for musicians who can write their own stuff and perform it well, they cannot get a gig anywhere. Landlords ask what songs they play and the moment they say our own then the landlord does not want to know.
A friend of mine promotes in the west country and he says it is getting harder and harder to get the smaller venues booked with original touring bands as the 'tribute' circuit is jamming up the schedules.
I've never wanted or wished to see a tribute act, it is also sad that these individuals wish to live their lives pretending to be their heroes. I know a fella who fronts an Oasis tribute and he goes around pretending to be Liam Gallagher when off stage.

I'm with you on this one, Ebo. It's been sad to see The Globe on Albany Road up in Cardiff starting to fall victim to the scourge of 'Tributeosis.' Their calendar is now getting clogged with the tat, going back a few years ago it was always the first place I'd look to for a good night.

There is even tribute festivals now. Glastonbarry is one.
Can anyone on here justify the existence of tribute bands and tell me why it's better than listening to real thing at home for fück all with a nice glass of red?
