Just found this group and they are very nice to listen to.

Great group from South Australia, "The Hindley Street Country Club".

Main page with all of their music:

Just looked them up and discovered that Danny Lopresto is a member - that's enough to get my interest

I was going to cop out here because everything that has ever been recorded by the public is awful but these are not too bad.
Yes the band you linked to are way more professional and what we would call a Function/Wedding Band but I was expecting an originals band and not covers.

TY for the links and you're right, I should have included the type of music they play, so something to do next time.

before lockdown I'd go out and watch at least one covers band a week.

If you want to hear an absolutely amazing covers band these are top of the pile, yes it's the guy out of KISS

Huh, nice.

Considering he is close to 70, he's really very good still and to think the guy is also a solicitor; one very accomplished individual.

I never knew that.
In the 90s I joined a band called Legal Thieves and when I asked where they got the name from they said two of them were Solicitors.

Did you get your username from Neil Young?
I have a video somewhere of me doing that song.

My username is something I use sometimes for games, so I just thought why not (plus I'm 62, sooo).

I watched KISS back in the day, plus a number of acts still going; feeling 25 mentally, but my body says something else.

Better change my user name to Even Older Man then, I just turned 64 - mentally 30, physically 80

63, out of control diabetes and using two sticks or a wheelchair but I'm 25 in my head.

We've won local band of the year twice so I'm not bothered about your insults.
Try harder.
