Cover bands used to be a thing in Montreal. A band would realize that they could sell more tickets if they stopped playing their hopelessly uninteresting compositions and simply thrash out the classic rock played on rotation on CHOM FM.
They usually weren't proud but apparently enough folks wanted to see Led Zep, Doors and Rolling Stones cover bands to make it work.
But how on earth does a tribute band to a semi-obscure, never-very-good act happen?
Ask Montreal band Pimp Bizkit, which is a tribute to Limp Bizkit, which is a rap group that had some success, I'm told, for about five or six years under singer Fred Durst.
They were sorta like Kid Rock, I think.
Well, you'll surely be thrilled to learn that well-known local porn actress Vandal Vyxen is joining the band. At least part time. She is starting her rock career singing with the band Nov. 29 in the Beauce. So no excuse not to know now.
