      Exactly, that's what makes them a tribute band not a cover band. Note for note the best tribute bands perfect the originals. LLB pays tribute to a wide variety of bands and does a brilliant job of it.

LLB is taking me down Sentimental Street when they Sing Me Away each night. When You Close Your Eyes I can see them in concert. But Don’t Tell Me You Love Me because I keep raving about you. No matter what’s happening, you can still Rock In America. Goodbye!

    Most singers have a range they can sing in and do very well. They can also replicate some other famous singers that are close to their range. Mark and Jessica have an infinite range that is rare and beautiful. They can replicate just about any singer out there... and that's hard to do. The band is always awesome, and it shows their dedication to music. But I wanted to recognize the two core singers and their talent. BRAVO LLB!

    Vandy, you constantly amaze me.... the answer to the question "what songs can Mike Vandemark sing?" ALL OF THEM. Your ability to adapt your singing style and phrasing to emulate the original is extraordinary. "Sister Christian" is a long leap from singing "Life in the Fast Lane." There are no other singers on UA-cam that would have the chutzpah to even try it. 😎 👍

    This was written about Kelly Keagy's sister. Her name was Christy, but Jack Blades thought he said "Sister Christian", so it became the name of the song. Since its release, it's been used endlessly in pop culture, from the opening of both the Broadway and film versions of "Rock of Ages" to a 2020 Dr. Pepper commercial featuring Justin Guarini. Great job, guys!

This music (as as all of LLB's music) does great honor to the original. Thanks for bringing back some great memories.

    It amazes me how close this band keeps their performances to the original song. They pride themselves to getting it as close to the original score as possible and not many cover bands can say that. Lexington Lab Band is one of the best cover bands in the world. They don't concentrate on one genre, they can do it all! Again, not many bands can say that. I always look forward to their next performance. An incredible bunch of musicians here.....
