Cover bands can be a good starting point for musicians who still need to gain some musical knowledge and build enough confidence to write their own material.

There's a massive difference between a cover band and a band who play covers.

Do you dislike cover bands in general, then?
I went to see Australian Pink Floyd and I don't regret it.

I only have one experience of a cover act.

It was someone doing Shakira.

She looked more like Tina Turner.
