They were dreadful. The lead singer tried too hard to be Paul Weller (a given, I suppose, for a tribute band) but just couldn’t pull it off. They also seemed to play the songs at a slightly slower speed than the originals, I thought they just looked a poor pub band.

Mind you, like Olds I was never a fan of theirs and always thought Weller a bit of a humourless tosser who took himself far too seriously. Wouldn‘t go out of my way to see FtJ again, even if they were part of a festival line up.
Fair do's Ant, Each to their own, Be a boring world if we all liked the same things.

Last band I saw was the Macc Lads in Bristol in 2019!

Nothing on the horizon either, which is terrible as 20 years ago i'd have been seeing live music probably fortnightly.
First saw them in 1988. Absolute riot. I got a bottle to the head.

Last band I saw was Metronomy at the Roundhouse in Dec 2019. Might be a while until I see another.

Exeter University? The smaller venue which I’ve forgotten the name of.

You saw Jules sing Gangsters paradise 11.11.2012 or don't tribute acts count?
