On AXS network..watching Which One's Pink ? fantastic band,, close your eyes and they are Pink Floyd..
All episodes are filmed at the Whiskey in Hollyweird

Brit Floyd and Australian Pink Floyd are fantastic too.

I don't know about "world's greatest", but Badfish (Sublime cover/tribute band) have always been fun to see. Also have enjoyed the following:

Who's Bad: Michael Jackson
Zoso: Led Zeppelin
Abbey Road: The Beatles
Slippery When Wet: Bon Jovi

Again, all fun times, but not sure about "world's greatest" status.

That Floyd tribute last night was great, but sheesh, they had nine or 10 people on stage. What music can't you recreate with that?

Atomic Punks

Those guys were incredible.

They were great until Ralph left. I think Fan Halen might be better now. My VH tribute has a gig tomorrow. Gotta go practice.

There's gotta be other guys here who put up with the pay to play at the Whisky..

With all respect, I always felt Heart was the greatest Zeppelin tribute band

I will do it once, just to cross that place off my bucket list. More likely gonna end up at Paladino's in Tarzana for what it cost us to go out there.

I don't think these guys are a tribute, but this is about as difficult as it gets and they crush it.

The Philippines.

I spent a lot of time there in the 1980's.

In Subic there were cover bands catering to every genre of music, from C&W to Heavy Metal, in the bars lining the main drag. Honestly, they were near perfect covers.

Incredible stuff. This video brings back a lot of memories.

Another one comes to mind: Cosmic Charlie, which I think is a Gratful Dead tribute band.

[911boost]

Cosmic Charlie and Dark Star Orchestra are both good.

Rain is the only cover band I have seen. They do The Beatles very well.
