tribute bands

[Carmanah]

Don't ask me why, but I stumbled across a listing of U2 tribute band websites.

I've heard a few U2 tribute bands before. Some are more convincing than others... but there's this one German U2 tribute band called Achtung Vorsprung (http://www.u2germany.de/)

And man oh man... this is the first tribute band where the lead singer's voice sounds SO much like early Bono... he has the yelling and ad lib down perfectly!

Listen to their version of 11 O'Clock Tick Tock:

While the music isn't AS convincing... listen to the guy's voice.
