Hi
I saw Complete Madness nearly 2 years ago, and they were very good.
They did a great version of Kingston Town, much better than UB40's
version., although Can Can sounded dodgy, and he was singing the wrong
words to Gangsters. Sad to hear about the drummers stroke. This band
had a good reportoire, including Tom Hark, which started off like
Madness (the track).
The only other tribute band I've seen was Toot & The Skamen (bad
name). They had a girl singer who came on to do a couple of Selecter
tracks, which was good (nice legs too!)
All the best
Andy
