I haven't seen these guys for a few years now, but they are a fantastic Steely Dan tribute:

I took my Dad to see them for his 80th birthday at Preston Guildhall.  Bloody hell, that must have been 2005! 

It seems they're still playing, too.

Stanley Dee are also very good featuring the forum's own Stinkfoot

I walked past a pub in Stirchley in Brum once and there was a poster outside saying "Ian the Goat sings Black Fucking Sabbath".

So naturally I went in and it was excellent, and hilarious without being disrespectful.

It remains the only tribute band I've ever seen. 

With me old mate Stu Clarke ( rip ) on guitar ... !

Ah really? Sorry to hear that, he was excellent and very funny too.

He was a great chap and he worked at musical exchanges in brum in the good old days laterly in the vintage guitar dept .

He was in loads of bands and at one time we were signed to the same management company , he had loads of interesting vintage strats some with holes in em like russ ballard .

I remember when he was auditioning for UFO and he would practice that bloody keyboard intro to dr dr live over and over ( didnt get raymonds job ) ... his fave sarny was beetroot on white which he jokingly ordered as "Clit sandwich "  Happy days ....
