Have your say...

As a genre of live music, tribute bands have been in the public eye for around 3 decades now, most noticeably kicking off in the late 80’s with acts like Bjorn Again – the ABBA tribute, then followed by others such as The Australian Doors, and the Australian Pink Floyd etc. Before you knew it, there suddenly seemed to be a tribute act to every famous & successful artiste or band. Then the prospect of coming up with something new to grab the public’s attention becomes so much more elusive, yet, Kevin Jager came up with the idea of doing a 10cc tribute, which in itself was a refreshing concept.

A superb band, many chart hit singles, and some damn catchy tunes. But to do a full show of just 10cc’s music would obviously mean including several album tracks, and music that a general audience might not be that familiar with. So after a rethink, the new concept was put together of splitting the quota of music with another famous British band, ELO. Thus the creation of 10ccLO, a band performing both the music of 10cc & ELO. No filler songs required to pad out the set, now simply hit after hit after hit.
