Was the cover band specialized in covers of a specific artist/band ?

Oguerrerob · March 05, 2019, 02:56:13 PM

Mostly Punk bands, some famous

Has he covered some Sex Pistols songs ?

I don't know, maybe. Can't find anything related

Has he covered some Buzzcocks songs ?

I don't know much about the band. Apparently, they played their own songs and american rock songs, and they used to play in NY for while

As you said the band covered "mostly Punk bands, some famous" I thought you knew which band they covered.

Anyway, it's not leading anywhere so I probably need to restart my investigations from scratch.

I intended to say that they played as a previous band in the more known groups presentation

Is the puzzle car powered by a Jaguar engine ?

Did this guy lived in NY before this death?

Oguerrerob · August 31, 2019, 02:07:20 PM

According to one source, The band played within US until 2011. He died in UK

pnegyesi · August 31, 2019, 03:37:55 PM

so he was
- sax player
- guitar player
- played in a cover band, doing punk songs
- customized Jaguars
- played in the US
- died in UK in 2017

did the band you mentioned first with two sax players had any records out?

Oguerrerob · August 31, 2019, 04:11:28 PM

I don't think so. I couldn't find any record. And he built a few other cars, including trikes and bikes. I believed it's not obscure at all
